CT Shooter...

[Rodentman]

I just read that Adam Lanza had 1,700 rounds of ammo at his house.
Lucky they didn't come looking at my house.

And he lived in a "gun lover's house." Well, I do too. Don't you?

Whole thing makes my blood boil. You know the story. He is a wacko. All of sudden it's the gun's fault.

They found, at his mother's house, «...a trove of gun paraphernalia. It included a rifle scope, boxes and cans filled with ammunition, earplugs, eye protection and a book titled "NRA Guide to the Basics of Pistol Shooting."»

I have all that stuff too. Well, a couple of pistol scopes, no rifle scope. They'll probably come for me next: Tattooed skinhead picked up. His basement had an ARSENAL of dozens of handguns, thousands of rounds of ammo, and enough reloading supplies for thousands more. He had eye protection, earplugs, and manuals describing how to make ammunition. Gun magazines were found in the bathroom and living room.

You can all come visit me in prison.

I saw a story today that all shots fired were from the AR. And the "arsenal" had multiple handguns.

Well, if this is to believed, there was no "arsenal," and his Mom appeared to be pretty disorganized.

[Rodentman]

I think the MSM calls more than 1 firearm an arsenal. I think I read that reference somewhere. Anyway, I put in my dibs for the .22's.

Yeah I saw "asrsenal" thrown around in the story I watched as well. My first thought was, three guns is an arsenal? Wow, I didn't know I'd already well surpassed the arsenal level. Along with that was fact that he was able to fire 100+ rounds in X amount of time like it was some major feat only capable with the evil black assault rifle. The story I watched reported that all the kids were shot with the .223 rifle and he shot himself with the handgun.

So, bloody sheets are weapons?

Based on the link I posted above and what we know of the shooting, she only owned five firearms and a BB gun. Only one was a handgun.

I think the media freaks out when they see more than a 100 rounds of ammunition in one place.

I just read part of the list of items from the NY Post article aloud to my wife. Her response, "Is that a list of the stuff you have in the basement?"

Here are the search warrants, including the inventory of the items that was seized:

Of the "over 1000 rounds" of ammo, over 600 where .22LR. Gotta love the media...

Thank God he didn't reload. Everything would be counted tripple.

The part that blew my mind is the mother saw him as a big enough threat that she was actively trying to get him committed, yet he had a gun safe in his bedroom. Up until now I figured he stole the weapons from his mom but it sounds like she was buying them for him.

[FJ540]

They said he had an uncashed check meant for a gun with a card from his mother.

Last night on channel 9 the reporter stated that he had "enough ammunition to fill an armory." Must be a small armory, 1,700 rounds would fit into a couple of shoe boxes. I wrote to the reporter. I'm sure his hyperbole with be retracted.

I laughed and swtiched to The Walking Dead on Demand.
