Sandy Hook, devistating

On December 14, 2012 at Sandy Hook Elementary School, things were going normal. It was a , normal school day. However, at 9:35 things were to drastically change/

Adam Lanza, 20, was first at home, where he shot his mother, Nancy Lanza, 52, in the head 4 times with a .22 Marlin rifle. He then went to wheer his mother taught at; Sandy Hook Elementary. It was around 9:35 that he shot down the doors of Sandy Hook, and apparently went shot two administrators. Then, he went to his mother's classroom, and shot 15 out of 16 children dead. The survivor, a six year old girl, said that she played dead until she knew everything was over. Then, after wounding 2 more women, and killing 2 more teachers, it is said that he commited suicide and shot  himself in the head before authorities arrived.

It is also said that Adam did this because of all the attention his mother was giving her class and not him. His brother told sources this.

In my opinion, which is probably like other's opinion, this is terrible. First of all, he was 20 years old. Wanting attention from his mother at this age makes him seem like a little kid. Also, if he did want attetnion, why would he kill his mother? On top of that, because you killed your mother, who was the reason you were angry, why would you kill the children? They didn't ask for the attention! He knew he was wrong, because he shot himself afterwards. Therefore, no one can blame this on a disease, or mental disability. Which I find very interesting. Because he was Caucasian, they tried to make it seem like he had a mental disabilty, but if he was African-American, he would have been a cold blooded, sinister man. That's very funny to me.

That's honestly how I feel.
