Sandy Hook Chorus to Sing at Super Bowl
NBCConnecticut.com ^ | 1-31-13 | Staff

Posted on 01/31/2013 10:40:05 AM PST by 444Flyer

The chorus from Sandy Hook Elementary School will sing "America the Beautiful" before Sunday's Super Bowl between the San Francisco 49ers and the Baltimore Ravens.

The chorus features 26 children from Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Conn., where 20 first-graders and six adults were killed in a Dec. 14 shooting rampage.

They absolutely were on the scene before Lanza went in and killed Soto.

No they weren't. The 26 victims had already been shot by the time they got into the school.

The last line of the excerpt you posted tells you that, if you'd take the time to read it.

It is through our VOICES that the elected officials need to hear from *we the people* none of whom are slaves to their whims and pressures and fee-good laws.

The Newtown killer broke numerous laws. Therein lies the problem with the state of CT, which has all but eliminated proper help for special needs children, institutions to house the criminally insane and repealed the death penalty. I would say, without equivocation, the deaths of the children/staff lies at the feet of the state legislature.

here is something else that makes no sense.

If the doors closed at 9:30 and IF Adam Lanza had to shoot his way in after 9:30 (which would be heard right away) and if the cops got there within 3 minutes as Uncle Chip claims...how is there 20 to 25 minutes of shooting.

It only takes a maybe two minutes (IF THAT) to rush Lanza after they saw him as they entered in the building

Is it possible that Lanza was in that school before 9:30

But they are hiding because they are worried about being sued with many 100 million dollar lawsuits.

So Lanza probably knew that the school shut the doors at 9:30. It is a small community.

What are the chances that he went in before those doors locked.

there were initial reports he was dressed in a clergy outfit

Whatever set of demons put Ms. Giffords in front of a microphone should be taken out and hanged by the neck until they are dead.

She has the mind of a child (if that), dragging her out like a meat puppet for propaganda purposes is evil.

My only experience with grief counseling is that it makes things worse, a lot of obsessing on the past while you’re trying to live the future. It is kind of tacky to drag them out to sing, but they get to watch the game from the green room, get a lot of autographs, and hopefully have some fun. Really the Super Bowl is a festival of tacky, why change now.

He’s a puke. He and Sarah Brady should both be flogged, tarred and feathered, ridden out of town on a rail, and hanged, drawn and quartered.

We always put on Hendrix playing National Anthem @ Woodstock during halftime because of all the crappy entertainment, no difference this year (no offense to the kids either).

"No they weren't. The 26 victims had already been shot by the time they got into the school. "

Have you lost your mind.

Well, now we will have to wait to see what they are trying to hide by having Uncle Chip continue to make CRAZY posts.

Here is the paragraph once again to show the cops were in the SCHOOL as Lanza shot himself and the kids.

""The first police officer on the scene was confronted by the glass window that Lanza had shot his way through to get past the locked door. The officer advanced into the school and saw the gunman, from a great distance down a long hallway, perhaps a couple of hundred feet. The gunman, dressed all in black, spotted the officer and ducked into a room off the hallway. As the officer, now joined by a partner began to rush down the hall toward the gunman they heard a volley of shots. When they got there, they found the gunman, dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Just beyond the gunman, in a classroom, children huddled together, and their teacher, all of them shot multiple times. Nearby, in a bathroom another group of children, huddled together, all shot multiple times. It appears that the gunman let go a last volley of shots at his victims before killing himself with a single bullet to the head.""

The NFL exercises some control. The NFL banned Up With People in the mid-80s, and there was a push towards pop stars that led to what we have now, also they’ve banned MTV from it after the Jackson incident. While they want the networks to be able to showcase themselves in the show in someway (hence why Fox always brings out American Idol winners, and the last CBS Super Bowl had The Who which half the CBS line up uses as theme songs) there are still directions coming from the league. The NFL is why Viacom no longer owns CBS, after the Jackson debacle they declared that Viacom would never get an NFL contract again, in order to keep the NFL CBS had to be divested.

Hmm.so why is Uncle Chip so desperately trying to convince people that the kids were dead before the cops were on the scene.

One possible reason - Creepy Gene’s kids saw Soto shot. That means that the police were rushing down the hallway before the kids even left the classroom. There were many cops on the scene. People rushing to get to the school shooting.

Notice how Creepy Gene never mentions any cops anywhere - not even in the kids stories.

Wouldnt it be cool if they just belted this one out instead?

We don’t need no gun legislation
We don’t need no thought control
No gun free zones around the classroom
Zero leave those kids alone

Hey Zero ... Leave those kids alone

Thanks for the video. Ok, so Burton says the shooting went on for 20-25 minutes. The msm first reported it took the police 20 minutes to get there. However, there is a timeline supposedly from the police scanners that claim they got there within mere moments (IIRC, something like 3 minutes) and the police saying everyone was out of the building and the school declared secure all within 17 minutes (and I have a bridge for sale). Then the nurse claims she and maybe the secretary were still in there four hours later when they were in the first rooms that should have been cleared. Someone is lying.

From the article you linked, the police spotted the gunman a couple hundred feet down the hallway. Other reports have said Lanza went past the first classroom to the second classroom and then to another? Somewhere during that time, he went into the restroom because bodies were found in there. Why would he be two hundred feet down the hallway? I understand that time has no meaning when in a stressful situation but I believe Burton's belief there was 20-25 minutes of shooting. So, it took him 20 minutes to go from the front office area, to the first class and to the restroom but it only took him seconds to kill everyone and himself in the second classroom (I'm assuming the police bolted down that hallway in seconds). If that last “volley of shots” was so fast, then what was he doing and what took so long earlier? Was he getting his jollies shooting up the hallway, picking his nose or what?

Burton mentioned the classroom doors being locked by the custodian. There's too much msm playing that the substitute didn't have keys to lock her door. That's bs. By fire code, you can NOT lock kids inside a classroom with a key lock. There can be a push button lock on the inside but never a keyed lock. So, her having keys or not has nothing to do with anything.

And why would the cops leave the whatever weapon is was in the trunk all day long with nothing but some yellow crime tape keeping evidence secure? And why would they later throw black vests/sweaters/shirts beside the car contaminating evidence? And were all four car doors opened and if so who closed them again contaminating evidence? Talk about another weird parent (the mother who said the car doors were open and the front door broken) who just stood there with another mother both saying how this, that and the other was “odd” but neither having their mom instinct yelling at them to get to their kids FAST.

Gabby Giffords' husband is the lowest form of husband-hood I've ever seen. He is vile and evil allowing her to be exploited like a freak in a carny show.....plus exploiting her himself.

It's a tragedy that we feel almost more pity for her exploitation than for the horrible thing that was done to her head.

In this photo, husband Mark Kelly looks like something straight out of Dr. Frankenstein's laboratory. He makes me shudder ((( )))

Ahh, you beat me to the weird timing question. Looking down the street from my window here, 200 feet is about 2-3 houses. It shouldn’t have taken the cops 10-15 seconds to run that far.

Interview with one of two mothers who witnessed the kids running down to the firehouse, the Lanza’s Honda doors opened, the broken plate glass window at the front door, the police had already entered the building [9:40], the unusual quiet just before the final gunshots rang out from inside the school at 9:46, and the kids subsequently and orderly evacuating the building. Therefore the mothers were standing at the front door sometime after 9:40 but before 9:46:

So the 6 surviving kids from Ms Soto’s class had to have left the building about 2 minutes before the mothers see them on the road to the firehouse.

It’s elementary —
