Unfortunately as gun owners we are in the situation where in this case of 20 dead children one bad apple has spoiled the whole bunch in the eyes of the world...Anyway looks like I was right with one of my comments last week, turns out the shooters mother was in fact obsessed with this world ending this week..

I heard different on a different media channel. I heard them say, she didn't trust the government and was worried about the take over. The media has been wrong from the beginning and their crediability is forever in the crapper when it comes to reporting truths....IMO. One thing for sure, I don't believe anything coming from this regime we have now with all the coverups about F&F and now Madame Secretary has a headwound which will impair her memory about Benghazi which will bring back her " I don't remember" during the Whitewater scandle. An ever revolving coverup about just about everything..........sad, real sad.

One thing for sure, she didn't secure her firearms.

I can't stop feeling horrible for the children, families, and town. They've gone through soo much s#!7 this last week, beyond the living bottomless pit-of-hell-red-nightmare, they're also dealing with media sitting on top of them this whole time. Since this went down - every major media outlet has taken this story and painted it's own picture - False facts, accusations, drawing their own conclusions, and just straight reporting rumor as fact. Only to come back hours and days later - and hide it with a new headline. This is when you realize that money is more important than journalistic integrity. Heck, they were reporting the wrong name most of Friday, then CNN went and stole his facebook pic and ran it on TV and on the website. They're jerking anyone they can off the street with connections and trying to pull interviews with the victims and families - It's outrageous.

We live in this country where most of our media is handled by like what, 5 or 6 companies? And, they're all just prodding around, spewing rumor, stumbling on themselves and showing zero tact or integrity. The way they handle these things reminds me of burning ants under a magnifying glass. They'll go in and exhaust this for months to come, drill the victims, then they'll make them re-live it yearly with a prime time special for the next decade - minimum. All the while, slipping their own agenda into the mix. How mad can I get though - I fed the beast by watching some of it Friday evening - the rest I've got in aggregate from people at work who have to forward every update around like they're reporting it.

Sorry about the rant, I hope I didn't derail this too much.

I don't know how far this is going to go with gun control, but I agree we'll be compromising. It's also going to be non-stop anti-gun sentiment as far as the media goes for the next few months. We have both sides pushing for stricter control. For the law-abiding gun enthusiast, we're going to see SHARP rises in price and shortages - I think that's already begun from what I've heard.
