Shooters parent was just found dead at home. Apparently he shot his own parent before going to the school

They are now reporting that the shooter killed one of his own parents in their NJ home prior to going to the school.

Oh God, it's just getting worse. As if that was possible.

I've been very sick and have slept most of the day so far. Newtown, CT is about 30 miles from me. Sickening.

Staying away from the Lamestream TV news. Getting my updates online. So sad.

CNN is reporting the gunman targeted a classroom taught by his own mother. I wonder if the parent he shot at home was his father and then went to school and shot his mother, her students and along with some others at the school.

EDIT: some are saying the parent shot dead at home was his mother.

Horrible situation. My heart goes out to the teachers and parents at that school. Those poor babies losing out on life and those seeing it and so much other trauma.

Sickening.

Just awful.

Neither am I. There is not much to debate.

We simply will have to agree to disagree.

He wanted to shoot his mom, why he ended up killing all the tots in her class is beyond me.

I'm so **#$ing pissed right now. That could have been my little girl in a school somewhere. Those poor families, can't imagine going through this.

I don't know if the shooter is dead or alive, but a hanging in town square is in order here, but not until he serves some time around the biggest and baddest in prison.

Mental health care under valued in this country. Insurance companies dont want to pay for years of depression therapy so they try not to cover mental health very well if at all. Would be nice if everybody had access to quality mental health care. Maybe some of these the real sick ones would be prevented from pulling off these acts.

Pure insanity at its worse. I cannot imagine what the parents are going through. Imagine being there looking for you kids and they aren't there.

My wife used to say I would never move to <insert place here> because there are crazies out there that shoot up <insert place here>. I used to tell her that they are everywhere. It just hasn't happen here like that yet.

She wouldn't believe me. It sucks that this had to happen, but it did prove my point. Crazy has no borders.

My 1st inclination was to drive over to my kid's schools and pick them up and hug them.

These are trying times.
