Read up on the Amish. Each child I believe at age 18 is given the opportunity to live outside the community and decide on their own if they wish to stay in the Amish community

Funny thing is that PA just had a special session on September 26th to try and pass legislation concerning guns ie one hand gun purchase a month and assault weapons ban. Rendell really pushed it. Nothing was passed last week but now you have this happen

One of the gun-grabbing state reps from the welfare state slums of NE Philly had a soundbite last week about people getting 'capped anywhere' to try and push this anti-gun agenda, which promptly crash and burned.

Lancaster County is the most staunchly Republican area in the state. It may be just a tragic coincidence but the timing and location are interesting to say the least. I expect the Philly news media and the Dem corruption machine to be all over this like buzzards on roadkill.

OK, I am having trouble thinking any motive whatsoever for this. I know that the CO shooting was sexual in nature, and others have been for the sake of twisted ideas of revenge. But this? This has to be simple insanity.

This is unusual for the Amish community.

This is unusual for ANY community...Its just that the media makes it seem like its Christian, Republican, Gunowners who are at fault.

Chris Jansing is talking to profiler Clint VanZant. I've forgotten the number but earlier he said there has been something like 18 school shooting in the US since Aug 1st.

Schools are the soft targets for terrorists. Multiple, simultaneous Beslan-like attacks is one of my fears.

I was referring to the comment about the Amish being repressive.

Within hours we will be hearing about this monster's "unhappy childhood", his "lack of self-esteem", "difficulties getting work", "mental illness", etc., etc., etc...

Yes, we have alot of Amish who come through our area to sell their goods, just 5 minutes away. They are very good people. Some reason what I said was taken as an insult to all Amish, never is that the case. But, I have read stories of some who have suffered under strict beliefs. I am trying to figure out why someone went crazy.
