O'Toole said people with Asperger's, which is a neurological disorder, aren't known to commit such violence and that too much is being made about Lanza's mental health.

I cannot imagine that being healthy - even for a professional.  To prepare the body of a child - even just one - has to be traumatic for an embalmer.  Twenty would be enough to scar a person forever I'd think.  He will probably need counseling before it's all over.  He's bound to be a candidate for PTSD himself.

I think they should bring people in to help him . It's common sense .

I read that they have brought in help.

Yes many first responders and people that were reponsible for dealing with the aftermath will soon leave that type of work. Similiar to what happened after 911. The trauma would be exterme at best to ones psyche and ability to cope with even on a primal level. Being that the victims were children is the most horrfiying thing to imagine personally.

It is not in our even primal instincts to deal with scenes of this nature.

This is much worse than the world trade center,as far as PTSD goes .

This just in from Fox.com....

Something about a tentative motive may have been found.(Note I said tentative)
Anyway, I guess a long time resident and friend of the killers mother said that the mother was filing papers to have Adam commited to a psychiatric hospital because she could not handle him anymore and he found-out about it.

However, the court recods are sealed, so this is hearsay.

The son apparantly told someone that his mother loved that school more than she loved him.

But why would he say that if she had nothing to do with the school and staff there had no idea who she was?

Let the rumors spread like cancer....

I will sit back and see what the final report says, if I even happen to have the TV on, or stumble on it somewhere.

They are all gone, it is very sad. Nothing will bring them back.....Another sick thing we live with in society, and not the last I am sure.

Apparently, she did volunteer work from time to time. She was not paid staff.
But, read the article to clarify. http://www.foxnews.com/

Well, it's the best proposed explanation I've seen. Nothing else remotely makes any sense.
But, as you, and the article, said, we'll see.

Did not mean you in particular.....

I just mean things like this, it does not matter.

It will not help the families, it will not bring the children, and teachers back. There is not one good reason for what he did, and there is no reason or excuse that will make anyone feel any better.

That is what I say every time things like this happen.

It happened, they are gone, they will not be back, the parents, friends, community, will never forget, and it is sad.

In that, I think I also will be done, and not worry about why, how, what......It happened, it is over......Time to heal.

Sorry, next time I'll remember to PM you before posting anything so that I can obtain your prior approval.

Did you stop to think that maybe OTHER people are interested?
