Re: Person killed people at a school in Newtown, Conneticut

Why is everyone saying that he killed his brother? What's your source on that?

Re: Person killed people at a school in Newtown, Conneticut

don't think he killed his brother, but I do know he killed his mother, who was a teacher at the school.


hand in mine into your icy blues, and then i'd say to you we could take to the highway with this trunk of ammunition too, i'd end my days with you in a hail of bullets

Re: Person killed people at a school in Newtown, Conneticut

ok, 20 kids and 8 adults, and the guy killed himself, now i think i know why they do that, notice how about in everyone of these kind of thins, they guy/girl that did it kills themself on the spot, now, you might be thinking, "Oh they dont want court!" well, i think they feel bad and they want revage on themself, because its metal, not what they want to do.
my mom says that he wanted to kill his mother and what she cared about most, but no, and on potonjon's twitter, someone said that a newsstaion inteviewed the kids, in-which i want to flip the bird at tat news place, but im just wasting your time, just one thing to say, R.I.P

i learned about this when my grandpa was driving me home from afterschool choir at 4:30.......btw, the person who said they were stuck in math class, on hln, they showed a pic of little kids holding breaking down with a adult walking they out, now, would you want to be stuck in math class, or be one of the dead/ sad kids?

The suspected Shooter was reported to be acting oddly by family members. He was probably mentally ill. I personnally belive guns aren't the cause of violence. It's the person holding the gun who does.

If the person didn't own a gun they wouldn't be able to use it.

In England 8 people are killed by a handgun per year, in America over 10k are.

And I don't know any teachers who bring a gun to school with them so it's not like everywhere in America is defended against shooters

Even if handguns were legally restricted, it would still be relatively easy to procure illegal firearms.
It would quite probably be rather ineffective to ban handguns, as in the case of Australia and Chicago.
(source) http://www.infowars.com/cold-hard-facts-on-gun-bans-the-cost-of-liberty-can-be-measured-in-the-loss-of-life/

However, guns are far more likely to be used to intimidate or threaten others rather than in self-defense. Easier access to weapons does mean a higher chance of misuse.
(source) http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/research/hicrc/firearms-research/gun-threats-and-self-defense-gun-use/index.html

Either way, the fault is not with the level of gun control. It was the individual who entered that school and killed people, not the gun.

Re: Person killed people at a school in Newtown, Conneticut

in response to resistance:


" "oh he's a nutjob-those mentally ill people, ready to go at any time aren't they!"
I didn't say that "
fgs you IMPLIED IT.


" "i repeat, HE HAS NOT BEEN CONFIRMED AS MENTALLY ILL"
hasn't been confirmed as mentally healthy either, makes place for speculation as it is impossible to confirm now that he's dead "
yes let's just assume everyone is mentally ill because i mean, they could be, right?

" "they're REAL PEOPLE"
never said they weren't "
IMPLIED IT.

" "they have lives"
never said they didn't "
IMPLIED IT.

" "they can get on with their day to day business"
never said they couldn't "
IMPLIED IT.

" "they are not your SCAPEGOAT"
never said they were "
IMPLIED IT.

" "normal healthy people do GO INTO schools and SHOOT PEOPLE"
i disagree with you, if revenge is so important to you that you feel the need to kill 18 kids between the ages of 5-10 then in my honest opinion you need to see someone "
different people have different reasoning, he could easily have thought his actions made sense, without being mentally ill. i mean who knows, maybe we're all the mentally ill ones and the ones we consider ill are actually sane.

" "also you feel the need to clarify that mentally ill people AREN'T NORMAL"
in every day terms they aren't normal, though there is nothing wrong with that "
in every day terms THEY ARE NORMAL. so ment. ill people can't go about having a normal every day life? no, they can't. BECAUSE YOU WON'T LET THEM.

" and to be honest I find it insulting that you are preaching these things to me as if I don't know what mental illnesses and disorders are, when I suffer from agoraphobia. i am not an ableist and I find it disgusting that you would even call me one. "
why would you be disgusted are hearing that you're something you have been clearly presenting yourself as?
