That story now says the NJSP have found a body at the shooter's home in NJ, and that a witness is reporting a second guy wearing black and camo was apprehended in the woods nearby but was proclaiming his innocence when led past witnesses. Might be a hunter I suppose. Bad timing if so.
Sadly it's probably the mother of his kid, killed her then went for his kid and any others around...doubtful there would be anyone else with him in that case

I will with official information, which as of right now there is little. Even the numbers 27/18 may not be final.

Then you update that part of the post when changed information comes out.

I only mention it because you seem to find out things faster than I can find them.

only proves to me that no gun zones are irresponsible and shows a lack of concern for the safety of the people in them and only creates victims.

If it isn't obvious by now the criminals and crazies don't obey rules and laws. Making stricter or more laws isn't going to do a damn thing.

They need to allow teachers to who are trained to carry firearms or have personnel onsite that are designated guards with firearms to prevent this kind of thing.

can we please get these guns under control already?

Taking them away from law abiding citizens will not keep criminals from getting them. Look at how many people still get illegal drugs everyday in this country, how many gangbangers get guns on the street everyday. All gun control laws will do is raise the prices of guns on the black market.

Poor solution to the problem.

Interesting bit in that piece:
"The worst mass school murder in American history took place on May 18, 1927 in Bath Township, Mich., when a former school board member set off three bombs that killed 45 people."

I didn't know that. I had thought it was the Virginia Tech massacre.
The only thing I find disturbing about the bolded text is the blatant comma misuse

Missed that myself. I guess there is some infinitesimal amount of comfort in knowing we haven't yet truly exceeded the barbarity of our ancestors.

They are now saying the shooter was 24 y.o. That might mean he had a kid at the school.

Also worth noting that both NJ and CT have some of the nation's strictest, if not the strictest, gun control laws.

Ryan Lanza

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/...fied_n_2301764.html?ncid=edlinkusaolp00000003
The suspect in one of the the deadliest school shootings in history has been identified as Ryan Lanza, authorities said Friday.

According to police, Lanza, 24, is suspected of killing 27 people -- 8 adults and 18 children -- at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.

The shooter was killed during the rampage and several others were injured.
The identities of the shooting victims has not yet been released.

Lanza was wearing dark clothing, a mask, a bulletproof vest, and was carrying four guns. A cause and manner of death is pending, police said.

Police continue to investigate if there was a second shooter involved.

Unconfirmed reports say that principal Dawn Hochsprung and a school psychologist were killed, according to a parent who claimed to witness part of the attack, CNN reported.

The masked gunman entered the school administration office around 9:40 a.m., about 30 minutes after the school day began. The first 911 call was received by police one minute later.

Investigators said the gunman fired his weapon at least 100 times.

Students inside the building were escorted out in a single-file line. There are about 626 students enrolled in kindergarten through fourth grade classes at Sandy Hook Elementary, with another 46 faculty members, Newtown Patch reported.

Authorities have not commented on whether the deadly encounter was captured on video surveillance.

Friday's shooting comes just two days after a gunman in Oregon shot and killed two people at a crowded Oregon mall. The suspect in that case was identified as 22-year-old Jacob Tyler Roberts. Police say Roberts&#8217; took his own life inside a mall store. Authorities in that case are still piecing together a possible motive.

Sandy Hook Elementary School is closed Friday while police continue to investigate the shooting.
