Newtown gunman had interest in other mass murders
NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) - The man who killed 26 people inside a Connecticut elementary school last year showed interest in other mass killings, people close to the investigation told The Associated Press.
The 20-year-old gunman, Adam Lanza, killed his mother at their home before killing 20 first-graders and six staff members at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown on Dec. 14. He killed himself as police arrived.
Authorities found literature on other mass shootings at Lanza’s house, according to a law enforcement official briefed on the investigation. Another person familiar with the investigation says Lanza demonstrated an interest in other mass murders. They spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation is continuing.
The discovery suggests Lanza didn’t act on impulse and might have used past mass killings as a guide. SOURCE
There is one thing that ALL mass murderers have in common; they are ALL crazy! I say that with NO reservation; CRAZY, Loony-Tunes, insane and beyond redemption.
Every time an individual such as Lanza finally *snaps* and goes off the deep end and engages in heinous acts of mass murder, we, SANE gun owners, hunters, sport shooters and American patriots are immediately in the cross-hairs of the bed wetting Libtards, the anti-gun cabal, the Diane Feinstein types and other assorted moonbats because we choose to own guns that can shoot more than 5 or 6 times without being reloaded.
We, American gun owners, are painfully aware that the tool of choice for mass murder is a gun, one that is generally a high capacity weapon, be it a rifle or pistol, or even more deadly, the shotgun, as illustrated by the recent murders in upstate New York.
Libtards and anti-gun people would be very happy if they could rid the USA of ALL guns, even though Joe Biden said all you need is a shotgun, and just fire it through the door.
Now we ALL know that *Shotgun Joe* Biden is a MORON, I can’t help but laugh every time Joe lays another one of his *gems*, but he is the best statement walking for all the reasons that SANE people really DO need a gun to protect their families and homes.
“It certainly lends some evidence of prior planning and at least a fascination with these kind of incidents, if not using it as a way to sort of develop a plan,” said Jack McDevitt, associate dean in the School of Criminology and Criminal Justice at Northeastern University.
Other killers have been found with materials from earlier mass shootings or cited the crimes, said Jack Levin, a professor at Northeastern University who has written a number of books on mass murderers.
“What it indicates to me is that he had mass murder in his mind and he was looking for some role models and he quite easily found them in the publicity that had been given to other cases,” Levin said.
Anyone that has ever studied criminology knows this; mass murderers look for reasons and vindication. They look to their *heroes* for guidance and then examine what, if anything, went wrong in that particular attack as they attempt to determine a way to pull it off in a more grand fashion, with success, well, what THEY see as success.
I say this not to offer an alibi for those that do these crimes but as a statement of fact; only a crazy person would do such a thing, commit acts of mass murder, but when ONE crazy person does engage in these acts the Libtards want ALL gun owners to suffer for the actions of a miniscule few.
That attempt to punish all people for the actions of a very few is an atrocity in and of itself and We, The People can’t stand for that to happen and to have OUR freedoms jeopardized for something that WE didn’t do.
Lanza’s mother knew he was improperly wired yet took him for range practice. Sometimes stupidity simply costs you your life, as it did with her.
He was crazy, bottom line. Give him a gun or a knife or a chainsaw, the results would have been disastrous when he snapped. He wasn’t unintelligent; he was crazy.

Notice one thing about many of these mass murderers. Fathers that are not active in their lives. We hear a great deal about Lanza’s mother, but where was his father? Why was he not with him? Was it because his father deserted his family for a younger woman and “new” family?
Look at gang bangers. There are no fathers in their lives. And they become absent fathers too. And the cycle continues.
With the immorality of our society today, and the epidemic of absent fathers, I expect to see more Adam Lanzas not less.
You are absolutely correct. I’ve been in LE for 41, almost 42 years now. I could walk into the piece-0-shite motels on Auburn Boulevard in the late 70s and see the children raised by the whores in the cribs and the drawers of dressers, and know they would be my future suspects. They were. I literally had a few of them tell me their mothers were prostitutes on Auburn Boulevard — the former Walk-o-Whores in Sacramento.
The more you de-value males and over-value females — this is what you get, ladies and gentlemen. Hope you enjoy it, because Johnson created it.

Fred I am not disagreeing with in the least when you represent this piece of POS as crazy or insane. I beleieve this guy knew exaactly what he wanted to achieve so like you said he studied others and found a way to top tbem all so yes he was crazy but crazy like a fox and he achievef his FAME. In turn he should be taken out to a ranch tied to a back of a horse and drug through some scrub brush and cactus then staked out over a fire ant bed then cover him with honey then you pour about 300 pounds of cracked corn and milo and come back in about two days dig a hole and kick in whats left if anything. Does that make me crazy? No just know how to save the state a few bucks.
Just saying……..
Uh… He’s already dead…
People intent on making a name for themselves will not be deterred by a gun ban. They will find another way to mass murder - like a bomb. How many people will that take out at one time?
Fully agreed, and thank you for coming over to visit, you’re welcome here any time!
