Prayers to the families.

| The relative is his brother according to cnn
Getting a little annoying they say it's the worst when you have links like what adhan posted, not saying it didn't suck horribly but it's not fair to discount the families of a tragedy from the past either... this whole thing is just horrible

| How sick must one be to walk into a school full of children, take out a gun, and simply open fire on them.
If I live to be a hundred I will never understand what drives people to kill so indisciminantly.
May the people responsible burn in hell for this. | |

| Looks like Ryan Lanza was the brother of the shooter and it's actually Adam Lanza that is the dead shooter. Details this early are always confusing - and now Adam Lanza's girlfriend is unaccounted for. That can't be good.
It's the attempt at making sense of these things that can drive one mad. We so desperately want things to be reasonable and it's hard to accept when they are not.
Sometimes evil happens. And it did today. My heart bleeds for his victims and burns for a justice that is impossible.
Tears. |

| I've heard that still isn't confirmed, most everything besides the death toll and some of those names(the principal, the lanza mother).
Until tomorrow or the coming days will be little more than speculation...so many conflicting stories, so many assumptions. All we can do is pray for the families, wait, and try to absorb it all.

Prayers to the families. | I would suspect that it was a single shooter. Unlike some of the other school shootings with multiple gunmen, this was an elementary school and not some whack jobs gunning down their peers.
It would be hard to fathom MULTIPLE people having the same psychosis, at the same place and the same time, to conspire to kill babies.
I wish the guy hadn't killed himself. He deserves to be reincarnated as a cockroach at the Raid factory. | |

| It looks like Adam (20) was the shooter and may have had his brother Ryan's (24) ID. I don't think the other family victim was his brother as they interviewed him saying his brother Adam had mental issues. Unless he has a third brother.

| 300,000 people die in starvation each in year in north korean, people whose only fault was they were born into a country without freedom.
Thousands die in african countries over territory, religion, cultural beliefs. Not to mention places like the gazaa strip, Pakistan/India war, blah blah blah.
Many of the victims in these conflicts are kids.
You know whats really disgusting all the people on facebook and twitter using this tragedy for '' likes '' | |

I would love to participate in a thread about the atrocities in north Africa. Please start one.
Those atrocities don't make this less significant | |

Odds are that anyone tweeting about Justin Beeber and expressing outrage about their show being cancelled probably is only a few years older than the elementary school kids we are discussing, at best.
People are better than that, and children have access to the Internet. How many adults do you know would even be aware of that, much less "tweet" about it being cancelled due to a massacre of dozens of children?
I believe that humanity is better than that, and people should monitor their kids internet usage.

And honestly at least 70% of his fans should be over 10 and have some more respect than that...if they're raised right.
I'm on my phone but if you look up a facebook page called metrosexual Hitler (ik ik...) It's a few posts down they have a screen shot of the tweets.
