new shooting: Newtown, Conn. details breaking

[Horn]

Because it perfectly suits their agenda of gun control since all three guns are (evil), black, accept hi-cap mags, and are ONLY intended for killing large numbers of people* - which are precisely the ones they want to ban.

*a revolver is more than sufficient for 'self-defense inside your home'

Amazing how some crazed man would take the time to select different calibers.

How it has any relevance to the case at this point, eludes me.

I have not seen any reference in any accounts as to the calibers of the two pistols he used - have you a link indicating that?

I'm thinking that (just about) the ONLY way for someone to get to such a dark place in their own mind (that they are willing to kill young children) is via pharmaceuticals. (Kurt Vonnegut referred to this sort of condition as "having bad chemicals in his head" in his work Breakfast of Champions)

Hell's bells, just witness all the Big Pharma ads where the 'side effects' include..."thoughts of suicide" - and OF COURSE if someone is having suicidal thoughts they are ALSO having HOMICIDAL thoughts*. Duh!

*fucking NATURALLY those Big Pharma ads are NEVER, EVER going to mention "side effects include...thoughts of homicide" - but ya know those kind of thoughts just go hand in hand, like peas and carrots

SURELY I'm not the only one thinking of this, however those with the (bully) pulpit are going to keep it to themselves - or get fired.

Spot on.

Time to take the guns on a boating trip..........

The entire story doesn't make sense for three different weapons and tactical garb, its full of holes in that aspect.

The second gunman totally changes the entire story. No longer is it a madman that snapped, it's organized. When something is organized, it doesn't matter if weapons are legal or not.

Not to mention, the fact that two people would agree to kill kindergarteners opens up an entirely different discussion.

The only thing I've found so far ID'ed the Glock as a 9mm, no info on caliber of Sig that I've seen thus far.

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 "facts" are all over the place in these articles. I've seen one article that 4 firearms were found. Another states that his mother was NOT the teacher but possibly volunteered at the school at one point and was shot to death in her home.

An official with knowledge of the situation said the shooter was armed with a .223-caliber rifle. Four weapons in total were recovered from the scene. The motive is not yet known.
