She often went to a local restaurant and music spot, My Place, where she sat at the bar, according to a manager there who gave her name only as Louise. Ms. Lanza typically came to My Place alone, said another acquaintance, Dan Holmes, owner of Holmes Fine Gardens, a landscaping company in Newtown, who also met her at the bar.
At craft beer tastings on Tuesday evenings, he recalled, she liked to talk about her gun collection.
She had several different guns, he said. I dont know how many. She would go target shooting with her kids.
Law enforcement officials said they believed that the guns were acquired lawfully and registered.

You’ll now see localities already with stringent gun regulations requiring a visit by Child Protective Services & a number of other agencies before permits are allowed (more so denied)
DIVORCE
hurts the kids the most
“A different picture of mom.”
She sounds like someone I would like.
She had a lot of private worries, I am sure, with Adam. Seems like she tried to live a “normal” life with a child that wasn’t normal.
Twenty years is a long time to deal with these issues. It is unfortunate that her life had to end this way.
The low class anti-gunners had better tread lightly dealing with her. She comes from a very interesting family and her brother is a well respected law enforcement officer. Something that this article didn’t bother to mention.
RIP Nancy Champion Lanzer
I keep wondering if the mom has a FR account. :(
I think they’re going to try and paint her as a survivalist kook. The shooter was definitely not quite ‘normal’ but at this point my guess is he was on some kind of medication that affected his mental state.
notice how the times had a cute photo of him?
what about the dad that couldn’t handle having a troubled son and ducked out leaving the mom holding the bag
They hired school psychologists, and then added more!
But all their Vain Actions were those of Blind Fools.
THE Only reason for failure: removing prayer and God from their schools!
No. It’s misguided to think target practice will possibly be therapeutic for a person with significant mental illness. Dangerous lunatics need to be hermetically sealed from weaponry. My guess, from the data available, this mom dropped the ball.
When you have children, you might want to sit in Church with them sometimes and talk about Christ.
Now she is laying in the morgue.
Yeah, no surprise the dad left. I have a kid like that in the neighborhood, nothing but trouble and dad has washed his hands and moved out of state. I try to deal with him as best I can (I am stuck for particular reasons). The mother is mostly useless and mom’s new husband is useless.
I should add the neighborhood kid is a prankster and troublemaker but does not seem mentally ill to me. Just clever and quite destructive.
NYT’s point is:
A right wing gun fanatic (sleazy bar hopping beer drinking chick) turned this adorable innocent child (see lame photo) into a serial killer....
+1
Why are they even mentioning who owned the guns? Guns do this all on their own. Every Liberal knows that.
“...but Ive got an idea that the NYT is trying to cleverly hint that, as a gun owner, she had it coming.”
No, I disagree. They have written this to show that buying guns and practicing at a range are why he killed so many. Without reading the piece I would bet the majority of comments are all about how ranges need to be shut down and without ranges and guns there would be no more gun violence.
They are going to move to elimination of homeschooling. Just watch.
A bullet can enter and then exit the body creating 2 wounds, exit and entry.
Did he really say 3 to 11 wounds each, that would mean according to his investigation, each person was shot at least twice?
"Murdered FSO Sean Smith, Assuming we dont die tonight. We saw one of our police that guard the compound taking pictures...
So, we know there ARE government employees or agencies using these gaming boards to communicate and perhaps a shadowy group for recruiting operatives to further a gun ban agenda.
We can't imagine children being killed for such purpose, but what better way to evoke sympathies of the masses? Remember the four dead Americans, including an Ambassador where NO ATTEMPT WAS MADE TO RESCUE THEM, even after 7 hours of sheer hell trying to stay alive. They were ignored and abandoned to die that night.
