This is so sad....

 

[Shellshock929]

Ok why are they interviewing the kids? Hearing little kids describing bullets flying and people screaming and dying has me sobbing at my desk... this is fucking awful.

They have no reason to do this. This is despicable on their end.

Also, they're now searching in NJ for connections to the shooting.

 

[Devolution]

Stop posting that Facebook link you shitty fucks. You know nothing.

Well, according to his Facebook he has ties to New Jersey and CT and the name is confirmed.

I feel sorry for anyone who happens to share his name right now.

 

[aronnov reborn]

What? Most schools in the states require you to be buzzed in to actually get into the building? The Fuq!? The US Seriously needs to get their Gun laws straight. You need some sort of national regulatory board like every other country out there.

that's how our schools are in a little country community. the schools get locked down.. and we have police officers

 

[Hellcrow]

I think I found his Facebook page: (SNIP)

Edit: if this is a no-no I'll delete.

Better delete if you are not 100% sure. Wild internet witch hunts never do anything good.

 

[LyleLanley]

No good can come from posting Facebook pages now. Either he gets the publicity he wanted or some innocent person is going to be harassed.

 

[params7]

Any motive been established yet on the killer's side?

 

[DukeBobby]

Stop with the Facebook links. People are already starting to share his photos, despite no confirmation that he is the shooter.

 

[Pakkidis]

My question to America..How bad do things have to get before you start putting restriction on gun use? how many people have to die? How many mass shooting have to occur?

 

[Karl2177]

I'm so disappointed in the media right now. Even more than I normally am.

 

[Fry]

Jesus Christ, since the name was released the profile picture on that facebook page has been shared over 500 times.

Yeah... let's hope it's him. People are calling him all sorts of things.

 

[bud]

Jesus our media is unscrupulous, let's interview children, let's release the name of the shooter.

Fuck.

cnn just interviewed some kid who almost broke down in tears. :/

 

[djplaeskool]

Please people, let's let professionals deal with investigations for the time being.

[BankaiZaraki]

Yeah can we not post people's facebook profiles without getting concrete information about it.

 

[DrFunk]

dude, that might not be him...

 

[rdrr gnr]

Holy fuck. No Facebook links.

 

[You Are Viewtiful]

Who gives a shit if its close to Christmas? This tragedy would be just as tragic no matter when it happened. People with your fucked up priorities.

Yeah because that's totally what I meant. Seriously use your brain and read between the lines.

Edit: sorry I didn't mean to be so harsh but there was no need to lash out and swear at people.

 

[bananas]

Stop posting facebook links, you fucking assholes. You don't know for sure if it's him.

 

[Chichikov]

I've seen three different spellings for the possible name of this guy. Take those Facebook links down.

It doesn't even matter, we shouldn't give any publicity to that cunt, it will only encourage other idiots.
Let him die like he lived - a fucking nobody.

 

[Birbo]

Who gives a shit if its close to Christmas? This tragedy would be just as tragic no matter when it happened. People with your fucked up priorities.

Yes it would be horrible at any time, but the holidays are supposed to be a time of family and joy.

 

[Anth0ny]

Jesus christ

 

[GusBus]

My god, so awful

 

[besada]

what action do you propose is taken? unless you can remove all guns from the world, a gun ban is not going to do anything

I don't think you remotely have evidence that's true.

What I suggest is that we discuss it and try to find ways to minimize these incidents, and tighter gun control is clearly a part of that, but nowhere near enough. What I don't accept is that the only thing that can be done is to be sad and shut up about solutions.

 

[therealminime]

Now more than ever.

[Kiraly]

Goddamn can you imagine being that guy and getting 10,000 shares of your profile picture stating you're a sick fucker while not have done anything?

 

[Petrie]

I feel sorry for anyone who happens to share his name right now.

Why? If they're alive we know it isn't them.

 

[TheContact]

What? Most schools in the states require you to be buzzed in to actually get into the building? The Fuq!? The US Seriously needs to get their Gun laws straight. You need some sort of national regulatory board like every other country out there.

It wasn't until my junior year in high school (about 2003) that the school required the doors to be locked on the outside, and in order to get in you needed to be buzzed in or have someone open it from the inside. before, anyone could just walk up to the front door and walk right in

 

[Cyan]

This is absolutely not the place for internet detectivery.

 

[speedline]

Edit: deleted for now.

ehh, nevermind

 

[Hari Seldon]

I want some god damn media reform. These fucking bastards are seriously pissing me off with these interviews of kids and pics of crying parents splashed on the Internet.

 

[Dresden]

Man, what's up with the internet detectives? Even if it's likely him, the small chance that it isn't means you should hold the fuck up. Innocent people are going to get hounded to hell and back like this.

 

[elseanio]

The guy already has like 550 shares on his profile pic. Too late.

2 minutes.. now over 1000

 

[lastflowers]

I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Heartbreaking just thinking about it

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Seriously we really shouldn't be posting Facebook stuff when it may not be the guy.

 

[orientalNoodle]

What would push a person to the point of killing innocent kids? The killer's life must be shitty as fuck, but still...

 

[jmdajr]

Now questioning a Psychologists about the effect on the children.

Fuck off.

 

[Arcteryx]

que? lol



don't believe that.

Not sure what's so "lol" about that.

 

[~Devil Trigger~]

My question to America..How bad do things have to get before you start putting restriction on gun use? how many people have to die? How many mass shooting have to occur?

 

[The Elite]

We're going to be looking at photos of the guy for the next few weeks. No need to go digging right now.

 

[NeoUltima]

NBC's saying the body at the shooters home is one of his parents... wow.

Makes sense. Parent probably noticed him getting up early in the morning and saw him with his gun. Tried to stop/talk him out of it. Shooter gets mad and kills parent.

 

[rdrr gnr]

Man, what's up with the internet detectives? Even if it's likely him, the small chance that it isn't means you should hold the fuck up. Innocent people are going to get hounded to hell and back like this.

Seems selfish. They have somehow contributed something.

Re: Bullets vs. knives.

No, a knife is no more lethal than a bullet unless in the hands of someone EXTREMELY well trained. Knives create wide but extremely clean wounds, actual cuts. Bullets (specially rifle bullets and buckshot) create shockwaves inside your body that can compress and even rupture your internal organs.

To ilustrate the point, this is what happens when you shot a block of jelly with a 12 gauge shotgun loaded with 000 buckshot: http://youtu.be/QLun92bR4BA and this is the effect of a .308 Winchester (a somewhat large game used by both armies and hunters) http://youtu.be/jE9xjUVcszs

Notice the massive shockwaves. Now try to imagine what would happen to your vital organs if they were caught between the buckshot and your ribcage.

 

[Petrie]

Yeah because that's totally what I meant. Seriously use your brain and read between the lines.

I did, and happening in December makes it no more tragic. It is exactly the same.

 

[j_k_redtail]

The number of shares for his FB photo is skyrocketing with every refresh.

 

[TheContact]

They have no reason to do this. This is despicable on their end.

Also, they're now searching in NJ for connections to the shooting.

reason? RATINGS BABY RATINGS~!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Spoiler

sigh

 

[TimeEffect]

The guy already has like 550 shares on his profile pic. Too late.

1000+ now

 

[Lazy Man's Wallpaper]

I'm not a journalist, but I did go to school for it, and I'm preeeeeeeetty sure that interviewing small children involved in a tragedy like this is a no-no.

But then, I did skip Journalism Ethics class 90% of the time, maybe they did too?

As a father I can't imagine the horror of this.

 

[Shellshock929]

Please stop using Facebook links. It's still not 100% confirmed if the shooter is the same guy.
