Reporters are LAZY, especially in the past 30 years.
They heard one NBC reporter say something and they use it as an uncited source. That’s how it works, as we’ve all learned over the years.
I wouldn’t go out on a limb with your proof being the media made mistakes reporting the story. I can tell you from first hand experience that the media will fill in wide gaps in information with off the cuff guesses and report it as fact.
The fact they reported about an AR 15 is not proof that it was used or that it was not used.
I’m not sure trying to argue conspiracy is going to help our cause anyway.
here is the conspiracy. They make stupid rules. Schools are guns free zone. Then blame guns when someone bent on criminal intent breaks the rule.
In EVERY shooting such as Newton, almost the first thing that the cops & media did was to hold up the weapon used for all to see. I ask myself......why not here? No conspiracy, just a legitimate question.
That's all I need to know. All this other noise about how some of the parents are actors, they were involved with this & that, etc is wingnuttery of the same type as 9/11 "truthers".
No thanks.
What difference does it make?
Yes, they were protecting little kids.
The cops out there saw PLENTY.
So, like the OJ “conspiracy”, how many people have to be on the same sheet of paper to stick to one, detailed, false story?
Sorry, no!! Little kids should never have to see something like that. That was a correct decision.
#1 Sandy Hook massacre did happen
#2 Sandy Hook massacre was NOT a one-man job (too many witnesses all saying there were others - “three men walked by our classroom” - men who sped away from the scene, armed man who was chased down by police behind the school, etc.).
#3 We will NEVER know the truth about what weapons were used
#4 We may or may not ever hear what psychotropic drugs Lanza was on.
#5 The media is blatantly biased and trying hard to use this story and the dead children to further curtail our rights.
#6 We will never know the truth about what weapons were REALLY used - even the ME changed his story on prompting from FEDERAL officials... Local law enforcement were the ones who said multiple handguns. It was only after Federal authorities showed up that the story changed to two handguns and a Bushmaster...
Did you happen to notice that none of your nay-sayers addressed the “AR15 in an enclosed concrete space” observations?
I’ve been reading some of the SH Conspiracy Threads here, and there’s too many ‘loose ends’. This whole thing should be pretty cut-and-dried, by now. I’m not a believer in ‘black helicopters’, but now I’m beginning to wonder.

What about motive? I haven’t heard any, have you? What about the name of the off duty SWAT officer from another district that just happened to be in the woods and happened to lead the police on a foot pursuit?
I fully believe the murders occured in some form, but I do not believe the official narrative.
What about the Church of Satan, which is hubbed in Newtown and which Lanza was a member? Did the other members know and/or participate? Is the town covering up what would be an embarassment and likely kill any future the town might have? Could someone be trying to prevent the national Christian revival, which would be the appropriate response? Has the Church of Satan taken over Newtown at high levels in a fashion reminiscent of the Klan in Southern towns back in the ‘60s? Can you really tell me that there is a natural, psycological reason for someone to murder a kindergarten class and that demonic possession did not play a role? If you dig into the town and its history, it is quite f’ed up and bizzare. What is going on there?
—Close your eyes while we guide you out of here.
It is too horrific for you to see.
=No eyewitness of aftermath.—
You are an idiot. Pure and simple.
I just got on Brownells website. I found the Hornady hollow points, but not in stock. I’ve never seen any others. Any hollow points I’ve ever shot in 5.56 I had to reload my own.
Both my ARs are loud. They are louder than my bolt action .308. I sure as heck wouldn’t want to be in the same enclosed room with them going off.
Regarding a ricochet, I’ve shot 5.56 hardball ammo against concrete walls at 100 yds and had the bullets bounce back within 20 yds of me.
And there was not a single teacher or principal or janitor or any other adult carrying a firearm who could have taken out the deranged shooter sooner, much sooner.
I do not have a concealed carry permit, but I am getting ready to apply. One never knows where the next deranged person will confront.
AR15 in an enclosed concrete space
What kind of concrete was used to construct the building? What was on the walls of the classroom?
The conspiracy nuts are basing their arguments on things they don’t know and the guessings of the media during the confused hours. That’s a losing proposition. The nuts don’t have any data to support their argument.
What is so unbelievable about the whole scenario? He shot his way into the school and killed a bunch of people who couldn’t defend themselves.
If politicians are gutless, they wouldn’t be less gutless if he used a 9mm instead of a Bushmaster.
SJ - you're obviously not familiar with the different sounds different guns make.
I’ve seen full on crazy wipe away tear gas/pepper spray and keep on coming, I’ve also seen them get right back up after being tazed. Loud noise is not going to be a big issue, especially after the first shot.
Next time...you get to thinking. Don’t....go off half cocked.
