This kid’s mom took him out of public school and home schooled him because she didn’t agree with the school’s plan for her son. It would be wrong to use this tragedy, or Matthew Murray who did the CO church shooting, as a vehicle to condemn all home schoolers.
Believe me; I know that our public schools have lots of problems. I also know that there are many deeply religious and politically conservative, (many nonunion like me) staff members who serve in those schools. I have no problems with parents who chose to home school or send their kids to a private school; just remember how unfair the charge would be now and next time maybe put the brush back into the holster.
OK, flame away.
The Left must be wetting themselves.
Now they get to demonize gun owners, preppers, and homeschoolers.
Have they found out if she’s a Republican or a Freeper yet ?
Using the Newtown massacre to discipline FReepers?
If I use half of your “handle” and half of mine, I’d be called “fungobat”. (For all those baseball fans!)
I'm not going to flame you because it's apparent that the reason Mrs. Lanza took her son out of school is because they had no idea on how to deal with him due to his problems.
And rather than leave him in that alien environment she chose to try and help her son at home.........I probably would have done the same thing.
Mr.Fung, Adam Lanza spent ten years in the public school system and you call him a home schooler. Now that is a stretch, wouldn’t you think?
The young man seems to have been mentally ill. He should have been institutionalized. It has been reported that he was on psych’ drugs and reported to have burnt his arms and feet for fun. Learned that in one year of home school? Quick learner? Mom gave him extra credit for that, I guess.
I suppose that Adam’s mom took him out of the grist mill called public school to protect him and to protect others. She sould have kept her guns locked up and not let Adam know the combination.
I hope she taught him about Jesus Christ’s life, death and resurrection.
That is what a home school Mom would have done.
Disclaimer: I’m not looking to waylay the blame. This is just a thought...
I can’t help but wonder if she filled his head with negative thoughts regarding the school from which she pulled him. I have been thinking on why he put so much anger into this target... obviously he was not “right”... perhaps she had some vocalized bitterness that he took to heart in a way “normal” folks would not.
If you’re trying to suggest that her decision was a wrong one, you’re making quite a stretch.
