Everything else aside, the news coverage on this has been beyond embarrassing. The misinformation that these fucktards have been spewing over the last 24 hours boggles my mind. If you aren't SURE, don't fucking report it. Shows just how clueless and idiotic the American media have become.
Yup, add the lawyers to the media carded disguised political puppets and gun toting lunatics and you have the full US 3 ring circus engaging the clueless public. The ROW shakes their collective heads.Quote:

Gun laws? Good grief, how about enforcing the ones we already have? That nutjob stole legally purchased guns.
I pray for those victims and their families.

Morgan Freeman's brilliant take on what happened yesterday :
"You want to know why. This may sound cynical, but here's why.
It's because of the way the media reports it. Flip on the news and watch how we treat the Batman theater shooter and the Oregon mall shooter like celebrities. Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris are household names, but do you know the name of a single *victim* of Columbine? Disturbed people who would otherwise just off themselves in their basements see the news and want to top it by doing something worse, and going out in a memorable way. Why a grade school? Why children? Because he'll be remembered as a horrible monster, instead of a sad nobody.
CNN's article says that if the body count "holds up", this will rank as the second deadliest shooting behind Virginia Tech, as if statistics somehow make one shooting worse than another. Then they post a video interview of third-graders for all the details of what they saw and heard while the shootings were happening. Fox News has plastered the killer's face on all their reports for hours. Any articles or news stories yet that focus on the victims and ignore the killer's identity? None that I've seen yet. Because they don't sell. So congratulations, sensationalist media, you've just lit the fire for someone to top this and knock off a day care center or a maternity ward next.
You can help by forgetting you ever read this man's name, and remembering the name of at least one victim. You can help by donating to mental health research instead of pointing to gun control as the problem. You can help by turning off the news."
actually it is very fitting to post a picture in this thread of the tomb of Mao Zedong, founder of the People's Republic of China the greatest mass murderer in world history, who thru systematic torture, brutality and starvation killed over 45 million Chinese peasantsQuote:

Maybe it's time to do something serious and concrete that addresses the problem.

The US is estimated to have killed 500,000 arab children. O Bomber uses drones and kills children all the time. Perspective ...
CT State Police and just announced they and the Fed's are investigating anyone posing as the shooter or others that are giving misleading info about the case on Facebook with possible prosecution
b/c CNN reporters have been getting their info from Facebook lol
They should have this law impersonating or conspiracy to commit identify theft falsifying information is bad in cases like this but it still don't explain how badly the media has shit the bed in their reports just because they are desperate to be the first source to break new evidence in a case not giving a damn how accurate it is.Quote:

Both are despicable crimes, Obama just as guilty on that point as Bush.Quote:
