Multiple people are dead after a shooting this morning at a Connecticut elementary school, according to a report.

According to a witness report, the school's principal and another staffer were killed while the vice principal was shot in the leg afte a gunman opened fire in a hallway.

A witness said gunshots were heard in the hallway during a meeting and that "100 rounds" must have been fired, according to CNN. After the shots were fired, three people ran into the hallway but only the vice principal crawled back.

Cops responded to reports of the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary just after 9:40 a.m., and said the gunman was in the school's main office, according to reports.

Well, I’ve been wrong before and I may be wrong again but I’d sure like to find out the killer’s name.


Same here.

Well, at least the media has not called the killer “Tea Party”....yet

Really? I remember hearing all about the asian guy who shot up VA Tech. And all about Mohammed whats-his-face who killed those people at Ft. Hood. This is horrible tragedy. Stop being a boob.

If this is Islamic terror related, I wonder if Ubama will claim the video made them do it?

MSM is conflicting with the age, either 20 or 24. Has a child in the school. Is “connected” with the school. Is either from Jersey or Connecticut. I suppose the UK papers have an ID already.

Have they ID’d the gunman as a Tea Party conservative yet? Or since his last name might be Muslim they’re going to say it was a random attack, nothing to do with terrorism?/I>

FOX just said they know the name of whom the LE is questioning but they were asked not to give the name. It could be the other bad guy or someone else. I understand getting your facts together before going wild in front of the camera but that's still suspicious.

Maniac supposedly shot the kindergarten teacher in the head, then killed nearly all the kindergarteners in the class including his son.

CBS reporting the mother of the gunman was found dead at her residence in Conn.

CBS also reporting they have the name but are “further researching it”

Four hours after the incident, the first “Press Conference” shows state police congratulating themselves while saying NOT ONE THING about the shooter, the # of dead, weapons, the incident...anything at all. Am I the only one that thinks this is insane? We are given nothing except wild stories by an inept press. The shooter has been dead 4 hours and THIS is what we get? WTF?

Two questions:

How does a 20-year-old have a 5-year old kid?

How does a 20-year-old buy a handgun in CT (minimum age is 21)?

When you take God out of school the Devil comes back to class later with a gun, maybe years later. Our society has been destroyed by the absence of God, which is often disguised in the misrepresentation of God.
