The media coverage on this has been relentless.  How many times can they say they have no new information and just repeat the story in a slightly different way

Forgot to add that a State Trooper or other law enforcement officer has been assigned to each family to restrict media access to them and to help the families in any way they can.

That's good,  I don't usually like tasers but I would be in favor of the cop using his on any media types that try an contact any of the families

Yes. Heard that earlier and thought it was such a good idea. I am sickened the more that is leaked out.

Yeah, I don't have a TV so I haven't seen any of the filmed coverage, but the bits about sticking microphones in the kids' faces and then playing and playing them telling their parts of the story is really pathetic. Teach kids to capitalize on misfortune to get attention why don't you.

Fucking awful. You guys seen all the god comments too? It's because they "removed God from schools" apparently.

Coulda seen the autism shit coming a mile off. No surprise there.

Removed god fro schools?!?!??!?!?!?

Oh boy here we go, the typical loner, past trauma profile of the suspect:

No direct mention of Aspergers or Autism... yet.

If you want lunacy, have a look at this guy's twitter feed: https://twitter.com/BryanJFischer

Two components to the best security system for a home or a school: God and a loaded gun.

Solution to school violence is to get God and guns back into schools, in that order.

What we can do to stop school massacres: 1. Invite God back into our schools. 2. Allow school faculty to carry concealed.

We've spent 50 years kicking God out of our public schools, then wonder why he's not around when we need him.

Just wait. :zombiefuck:

This happening around the holiday season doesn't help.

The loonies will be coming out everywhere.

The comments below the video scare me.

Seriously, there's a large portion of America that is stupid. Ranting about Darth Vader or some guy saying he'd shoot whoever tried to take his gun. Yeah, real convincing.

Imo, any person who says they'd shoot whoever would try to take their gun REALLY shouldn't have a gun in the first place!  :grrr:

Slightly off-topic, but this is copied from an MSN article: 

Can two wrongs make a right? Westboro Baptist Church, the vicious anti-gay group that pickets the funerals of soldiers and AIDS victims, recently declared it will protest at the burials of the children slain in Newtown, Conn. In response, the hacker group Anonymous posted personal information of church members online, including phone numbers, home and email addresses. The law gives us all the right to some privacy, but when the Westboro Church's stance on the shooting is to "sing praise to God for the glory of his work in executing his judgment," do they deserve what they get?
