    As more details about the massacre emerge, the more obvious it becomes that no law could have stopped this monster. None.

    For one thing, Connecticut police believe he intentionally targeted a school because of the low risk of resistance. This is something that, if true, should be a smack in the face to those who still believe gun-free zones are the answer to school violence.
    From the New York Daily News:
    They believe that he picked an elementary school because he felt it was a point of least resistance, where he could rack up the greatest number of kills. That’s what (the Connecticut police) believe.

    It's reported that he reloaded before entering a room, even if the mag wasn't empty. So even if he was limited to 10 or 15-round mags it would have made little difference. And what could have happened in the few seconds while he reloaded - would he have been stormed by an army of 6 year-olds?
    From the Hartford Courant:
    Lanza changed magazines frequently as he fired his way through the first-grade classrooms of Lauren Rousseau and Victoria Soto, sometimes shooting as few as 15 shots from a 30-round magazine, sources said.

    And there's this - the sickest and strangest thing of all:
    From the New York Daily News:
    What investigators found was a chilling spreadsheet 7 feet long and 4 feet wide that required a special printer, a document that contained Lanza’s obsessive, extensive research — in nine-point font — about mass murders of the past, and even attempted murders.

    He compiled a comprehensive record of mass shootings that had occurred in the past. This was no spur of the moment thing; judging by the time he took to plan this and the determination to kill that is evident from his actions, you couldn't write enough laws to rewrite the outcome of the Sandy Hook story. Someone this obsessed with killing people could easily have resorted to something like the Bath School bombing in 1927.

    So, is Sandy Hook really about the guns? It looks to be a lot more complicated than the anti-gun crowd would have you believe.

    He killed his own mother! No matter the details of their relationship, it takes an extra special kind of sick F*** to do that.

    The only thing I've heard about Sandy Hook recently has been from politicians using it to push their own agenda. There haven't been many reports stating facts and findings about Lanza and the shooting. Thanks for posting this
