At least 26 dead in shooting at Connecticut elementary school

[DragonGunner]

Does this sum up what occurred or am I missing something?
- shooter was 20 years old
- shooter killed his mom with her guns
- shooter took 3 guns (2 handguns and rifle) all registered to mom
- shooters breaks into school where mom was a sub
- shooter gets into argument with principal and shoots principals
- shooter then goes into classroom and shoots teacher
- shooter then begins to shoot students and anyone else he sees
- shooter kills himself with handgun
- shooter left rifle inside car it was never used
- in ny it's illegal to own a handgun under age 21
- in ny its illegal to take a gun to school
- in ny it's illegal to kill
- shooter was very smart per his friends but a loner within the past few years

So am I missing anything?

One thing missed...interview with woman who knew the mom an son, her son was friends with him.....at least use to be. Woman said as kid the shooter wasn't right mentally, not at all. She said the mother came off to her as being very strict, not abusive but overly strict.

This same thing played out in my hometown, kid not right in the head an parents got him a .22 pistol at age 12....he thought they were to strict and shot them, killed his dad an mom was paralyzed....I knew the kid, like a grade under me...was not right at all. And parents really failed in not seeing and understanding this.

Doctor is saying everything he looked at was hit with .223 rounds fired from a Bushmaster AR, NO PISTOL ROUNDS that he saw.

Link?
Report shows the rifle was in the car.

Turn on any news channel, Medical Examiner is giving a briefing and just stated "All fatal wounds I observed on the victims were rifle rounds, .223" He then went on to describe how the .223 transfers energy to the body, and how he was able to ID what rounds hit the victims.

I'm surprised a medical examiner would release this info this early.

Well ol' MICHAEL MOORE sure heard what I just heard.

Check out his twitter, he's raging

Medical Examiner: "Most of the dead were killed w/ the Bushmaster assault rifle. Fires 30 rounds a pop. Most kids shot "more than once."

I think that it is a mistake to think that something "tipped him over the edge." This would suggest that any of us could be tipped over the edge and commit such atrocities. He wasn't tipped over the edge. He was undoubtedly mentally ill. You cannot look at this from a sane person's point of view. There is no rationale for slaughtering innocent children.

It is absolutely unworkable to attempt to apply a rational explanation to that which is inherently irrational. There is no sane reason for insanity.

just watched the Examiner say they where shot with long gun.....i don't see how those guys and gals do that kind of work.....

You sir, show your character. I would give up ALL my firearms to bring even one of these children back. In fact, I would gladly give my life to bring one of them back.

You'd be the only unarmed Bobby in Carmel.

FYI Mall Shooter shoot himself after seeing CCW pull out gun!!!
Clackamas man, armed, confronts mall shooter | kgw.com Portland

I have searched but can only find this article that references Mr. Meli or any other Concealed Carrier being at the mall. I find it odd that out of all the articles of this event I can only find one. Am I missing them? If so, can someone post a link?

I saw the actual interview. He did the autopsy on 7 of the victims. He said they (the 7) each had 3 to 11 gun shot wounds, and he believes everyone was hit multiple times. He didn't examine the other 19 personally, hence the statement.

For two days they said the rifle was in the car, kids shot with pistols, and they were all kindergartners.

Last night they turn into 1st graders and were all shot with an evil black rifle.
