This article has a lot more detail about the family, and insight about the shooter. It indicates the mother as a "former" teacher at the school. Implications from earlier TV stories was that she IS a teacher, and he went to her classroom. You're right, a lot of questionable information.

All news reports are saying that all guns including AR were 'registered' (Conn. requires a permit for the purchase of handguns apparently) to Nancy Lanza the shooter's mother. I cannot imagine a mother who teaches/is a teacher's assistant/whatever of kindergarteners purchasing three such evil black guns (ESPECIALLY the AR) - except perhaps to appease her younger son somehow.

The level of reporting just insults intelligence, as there is absolutely no investigative interviews of eyewitness at all. Its all how do you feel questions.

Its only a review of Connecticut's gun laws.

Any question of off base bias here?

This article says the shooter "then went to nearby Sandy Hook Elementary School where she taught and gunned down her entire class"

The NY Post article identifies her as a "former" teacher at the school.

Maybe reporters aren't allowed within 500 meters of the scene? And all witnesses are securely in custody?

Holy shit! The mother was receiving alimony payments from her ex of nearly $300K annually.

It appears the mother bought the three guns and allowed her "deeply disturbed" son unfettered access to those guns. Clearly an inexcusable failure to exercise intelligence or sound judgment under the circumstances.

It is also noteworthy that the shooter was a 'gamer'.

Looks like all gun owners will be given mental evaluations as to their right to own.

Any found to harbor any neglect or animosity towards the collective us.gov will be denied... as that is mental....
