Abc news gets the scoop but the photograph is from 2005… Abc news also reports someone saying Lanza was 'Obviously not well'

The story in when Adam Lanza killed his mother is evolving..

Horrifying details of the day are emerging..

A hush all over the world

I went to the mall tonight with my son only to find a very crowded but very quiet shopping plaza..

Nobody was talking, just kind of blankly staring at each other as they passed by each other.

Christmas music was playing in the background and people were trying to get their last-minute holiday shopping done before the season runs out of time. But there was something strange about the crowd.

As I mentioned it was purely quiet, again the only sound that was heard was the jingle of the bells from the loudspeaker above..

It is like a shroud of sadness was hanging over all the people there.
The events of the day in my mind that made this happen. Perhaps some were looking for escape routes in the mall just in case anything else would have flared up, or maybe we are just looking at each other in a days look thinking ‘How could someone do that to so many young children’

My son is very young, younger than the kindergarten age. But at this point does age really matter?

Anyone that dies in a senseless act of violence is one too many dead.. But when young children who are filled with innocence and love are taken away from this planet by a maniac wielding to high-powered guns, that is beyond senseless..

So the mall was quiet tonight, that I know. But what were we all thinking? Perhaps too many thoughts to even write about..

I cannot help but think about how this is now permanently changed Christmas for at least 28 families, a town, a state, a nation, and the national psyche..

No matter how cliched the term has become: we will never be the same again.

The shooter's girlfriend missing.. FBI has Ryan Lanza's computer

Adam not Ryan

The name is the alleged shooter is Adam Lanza..

Also in points the media goofed on so far: The media broadcast and widely circulated a photo of Ryan Lanza. Trouble is they seemed to just randomly pick a Lanza without regard to whether it was the suspected killer or not—and now the suspect is Ryan’s brother Adam..

Developing media story..

I think this sums up the national feeling right now..

Reports now indicate..

The gunman was 24.

His mother taught kindergarten at the school where the shooting occurred. 

The story is developing and changing.. 

LATEST: The Associated Press and local media reported the shooter, a 20-year-old male identified by CNN as Ryan Lanza, was also dead inside Sandy Hook Elementary School. A second person was in custody and undergoing questioning. Two handguns were recovered at the scene. Mayor Mark Boughton said several victims had been taken to local hospitals.

CBS News reporting that a "second body" was found in the home of the shooter. It's unclear if that means there are two bodies in that house or if the first body they're referring to is the shooter's.

VARIOUS REPORTS: A 2ND PERSON IS BEING QUESTIONED IN CONNECTION WITH THE SCHOOL SHOOTING TODAY IN CT.

We are living in a video game shoot-em-up drugged out culture

If people aren’t on ‘illegal drugs’ are they hooked on the prescribed kind.. I don’t know a thing about the Sandy Hook school shooter yet, nor do you.. but I bet we will learn quite a bit.

The only thing being reported so far is that he was 20 and the dad of a student there..

FOX NEWS just reported that the shooter began his spree in a kindegarden classroom today

I am revolted.. I am moved. I am crying like hell. 

WCBS-TV: "The shooter is a 20-year old with ties to the school."

The scene is being called 'atrocious' inside Sandy Hook Elementary School.

Various reports are now stating that hundreds of rounds were fired from two-hand guns at the shooting scene

This is just getting worse

Networks are now going wall-to-wall with coverage of the Newtown Connecticut shooting, at least 18 now appear to be children dead..

I say this again: Children did not deserve this, no one deserved this, there are 14 dead children right now at the school in Connecticut.. At least.

CBS news and other sources are now reporting that at least 27 are dead in the Connecticut elementary school shooting

Notice at least 27, that’s right, at least 27, which means there will be more numbers coming out shortly

I am absolutely astonished and horrified by the news today, the Christmas season brings out the best in people and the worst in people, as we learn more about who shot and why we will see how the worst was brought out in someone today
