Another school shooting (1 Viewer)

[Vision6]

If a certain poster doesn't get permabanned for this garbage it's absolute proof that he's an alias of a staff member. The fact that FBGs condones this continued behavior disgusts me. If he's not gone by the end of the day, I am. I won't continue to be part of a community that professes to strive for excellence and then promotes this type of garbage by continually allowing him to post here.

You know you don't have to be offended or disgusted. Only you can control your opinion, you can choose to not care what some random guy on the internet says.

I find the interviewing of the kids to be pretty tasteless and exploitive

Completely agree.

He kills his mother at her home, leaves and goes to her school, specifically targetting her students. I didn't think there was any way this could get worse. It just did.

Mother was at the school, correct?

Not sure if this has been posted, but the alleged shooter's alleged twitter account.

Woah

Father confirmed dead in NJ.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Fox confirming that the alleged gunman's father was found dead in NJ.

I saw it rumored before, but they are confirming it.

 

[Card Trader]

Who lets their kid get interviewed? Wtf is wrong with you

Not necessarily defending the parents, but I'm sure many are still in shock and everything being so chaotic they probably aren't in their right minds. I can't tell you for sure what's going through their heads, and hope I never have to know.

 

[butcher boy]

Seeing on other forums that this ryan lanza guy is not the shooter. Trying to find actual links.

 

[belljr]

Im still confused with the nj thing.....

Looks like he grew up in CT, now lives in NJ

So he drove to ct today? Ill wait for the facts.... This guy on abc is a tool

Very disturbing.

 

[⚡DEADHEAD⚡]

I can't remember an incident that has made me physically ill like this one.

On the scale of 9/11 in terms of feelings for me

This has hit me harder. There's a line of evil that even the most evil people in the world don't cross. The slaughter of innocent kindergarteners is beyond comprehension.

Still doesn't even seem real. Unfathomable.

 

[Disco Stu]

Not sure if this has been posted, but the alleged shooter's alleged twitter account.

He was a very unhappy and depressed guy. It also appears he had a relationship end recently.

Yeah, and it seems like he was already pretty despondent. We'll eventually have to ask whether he was getting help; he seems to have recognized he needed it.

I'm doubting this is the same guy. This kid sounds like a angsty teen, not a 24 year old.

 

[Apple Jack]

Can we please stop making this guy popular?

No one is making him popular. He was a sick individual that will burn in hell.

And other sick individuals see how much attention he is getting. All these mass shootings involve some socially awkward loser who want to be special.

Then maybe we should reconsider how we treat sick individuals, instead of just casting them aside as "socially awkward losers who want to be special."

I don't want to argue. But society infatuates themselves with these shootings. Their face is all over the news. We can stop making them famous when they all seem like they just want to be popular.

Just look at this thread. It's disaster porn.

I guess, i'd flip

Apparantly Ryan Lanza recently posted on his facebook after his facebook friends were being called at work. What a cluster#### this seems to be.

 

[CrossEyed]

Seeing on other forums that this ryan lanza guy is not the shooter. Trying to find actual links.

Pretty much every news organization has confirmed him as the killer.

 

[NMYMND]

Cnn says his name is ryan lanza

Looks possible. His facebook says he's in Hoboken but is from Newton.

http://www.facebook.com/rlanza

Just updated his profile photo...looks like his buddy liked it:quote:

Jonathan Russell Look like you're about to buy an Ale, but then paint a picture of it... very mixed... all good, though. Kinda like if Solid Snake was wearing a Neo trenchcoat. This can only turn out awesome.

Slate posted a Twitter "retraction" that they provided a link to the facebook page of wrong Ryan Lanza. ... too late guys, your rush to be first - instead of right - pretty much screwed over an innocent person. Great journalism. Good job, good effort.

 

[belljr]

Now they say the mom was in the school

 

[shader]

This Ryan Lanza guy and all his twitter friends...none of them tweeting today. Kind of odd. Many of them apparently tweet all day long usually. I wonder how many people he took out? His mom, his dad, the school. What an absolute lunatic.

There is more than one Ryan Lanza, but there is one that grew up in Newtown and now lives in Hoboken.

 

[Apple Jack]

As long as Fox broke the news about the father first. Were they first? Please tell me they were first!!

 

[rascal]

This is just horrible. The incident is making me sick and it feels like 9/11 all over again.

I can't watch the media reports as it only made me want to punch every freaking reporter.

 

[butcher boy]

Seeing on other forums that this ryan lanza guy is not the shooter. Trying to find actual links.

Pretty much every news organization has confirmed him as the killer.

And it looks like they might have the wrong Ryan Lanza. I think that's what I'm reading but cant find a news link to confirm.

[shadyridr]

Find it ironic that some of the same people lambasting the news networks for posting the death counts as wild speculation and at the same time linking to a twitter acct that may or may not be lanza

Here's another one.

Final tweet: "game day fellas"

Totally unconfirmed if these are the shooter's actual accounts. ETA: link won't work because the first part of user's name rhymes with snitch. You guys can find it.

Probably just a hockey player or something.

Wait. What?

Apparently, Fox news site has a picture up of "Ryan Lanza" from the FB page that was linked here. It seems like its the wrong ryan lanza because before his FB page went down, he was posting on his FB wall.

 

[Angry Beavers]

3 kids in school today - no words to describe the mix of emotion.

 

[CGRdrJoe]

Hopefully they quit saying anything about this pos, his name does not need to be remembered for a second more.

 

[butcher boy]

Just posted to the Ryan Lanza twitter account:

Ryan Lanza ‏@Ryan__Lanza

so aperently im getting spammed bc someone with the same name as me killed some ppl... wtf?

I wonder how much this plays into it. I suspect a lot.

[lumpy19]

Now both the facebook ryan lanza and twitter ryan lanza have posted since this happened, really weird

 

[Apple Jack]

You're a strange dude.

You're the one clinging to Fox News reckless reporting of a mass shooting of children like it's oxygen and then repeating it to people on the internet as if they can't find information themselves, but I'm the strange one.

I live two towns over form Newtown. I can get to Hoboken in about two hours.

Why are you such a Richard all the time?

 

[fasteddie_21]

There are some seriously sick people in this world. And it seems there are some seriously ####ed up people on this board too. :X

Thoughts and Prayers to the families. We have no kids, but still, you only need to be human to feel empathy for them.

 

[shadyridr]

Why is it weird? Maybe its not him and hes tired of being accused of being a mass murderer

 

[17seconds]

I guess the devastation of what happened is why it took a couple of hours for details to come out. Can't imagine what the school and responders had to deal with + and notifying parents. ####

Misinformation is coming from pretty much every media outlet. Rather common when events like this happen.
