What was farther away?

I clearly meant father.

The shooter's mother works at the school. He killed her.

Christ, I only vaguely watched it on the TV so didn't bother reading the article. What a tragic case

"President Obama is due to make a statement on the incident in about 25 minutes at 15:15 local time (20:15 GMT)."

I'm intrigued whether he'll mention gun laws, if it weren't for Fox News he certainly would but Fox News has been hot on telling people off over the matter.

This sort of stuff is only just coming out.

2002:

ABC news correspondent Mark Greenblatt says it is believed the school instituted a new security system recently. "But for a man to walk into an elementary school in this area would have been the last thing they expected," he says.

The shooter got ID'd as Ryan Lanza, fox and CNN used a Ryan Lanza's fb picture in their articles on their site, it turns out it isnt him since he's posting on facebook & twitter.

He's in for some big payout

Holy ****, this kid was apparently walking down a corridor, saw bullets go past his head and heard loud bangs - stayed calm as **** in the interview. Didn't seem traumatised or anything.

I only said it because I remember back to the batman shooting where people said they should have been allowed guns inside the cinema so they could have shot the guy before he killed too many people

with that stupid mentality I wouldn't be surprised if they wanted to arm their children aswell

I almost went to that movie showing, at the exact theatre. I disagree; rather than letting everyone carry weapons to protect themselves, it should be that no one has a weapon to begin with, therefore none can be used against one another wrongly. There is no justification for killing a person.

You'd a thought they'd have designed a security system that stops these shootings from happening.

RIP etc.

Tbh what could they have done to prevent this?

Tbh what could they have done to prevent this?

Ban fully automatic rifles, you'd struggle to kill 18 children and 9 adults in that situation.

Tbh what could they have done to prevent this?

Increased restriction on availability of weapons, crack down on gun control, remove the right to bear arms, stop licensing to civilians, etc.
