He says he’s on a bus and it wasn’t him.

Obama to speak on tragedy in 15 minutes. (3:15 EST). Oh boy.

So how are they going to spin it? 20-something white male, let’s call him an online gamer, with a small arsenal of EEEEEVIL “assault” guns.

Perfect setup for the next gun-grab attempt. Never let a crisis go to waste.

This is beyond horrifying. I have three kids in elementary school, including one in first grade...

YOu can protect your kids from a lot of things, but you can’t protect them from drunks or nuts acting beyond rational thought.

Words fail.

Thanks again, I live off-base but work onboard and I can’t even bring (legally) my pistol locked in my trunk so I could stop off at the range on the way home. Ridiculous.

[okkev68]

you are right. It went down, but now it is back.

[Darksheare]

Copy that.

There is a 20 year-old brother, Adam.

Obama to do a Bob Costas style rant in fifteen.

BTW, all the other well known shooters so far have been to psychiatrists (state paid) for one reason or another. If this guy has also been with a state paid psychiatrist, I'm going to start asking questions.'

You're not allowed to ask such questions. My only question is how long it's been since the shooter has seen a government psychiatrist.

[Responsibility2nd]

Just wow.

That wrong Ryan Lanza better go underground for awhile. Get a press agent and go viral that he is not the shooter. Maybe get an attorney even.

His FB and twitter accounts will be slammed with hate and death threats.

"in Israel, the teachers are armed."

The first time I went to Israel with my wife and kids in 1989, we were visiting the swimming hole at Nahal David (one of the hangouts of soon-to-be-King David in the Bible) . A busload of Israeli kids on a field trip arrived, and all the teachers and chaperones were armed. One of the parent/chaperones with an ancient hunting rifle told me that it was mandatory when chaperoning kids on a field trip to be armed. Sidearms were an acceptable option.

Pot would not make you do something like this.

Maybe Bath Salts, but not Pot. Get real.

[KansasGirl]

Evil POS apparently.

[DoughtyOne]

Thanks BlackIrish. Take care...

"Hope you got screenshots cause they took his facebook down right this very second."

It's one long rolling screenshot courtesy of SnagIt.

Do have a list of his likes?

I just looked and it had 110 friends.

Dear Leader will speak to us soon.

His calming melifluous voice and soaring rhetoric will convince us all that the UN gun treaty could have solved this.

And the nation will moan orgasmically, being thus reassured.
