Just catching up on this thread and SotT articles and firstly wanted to acknowledge the article written by
anart . Having to write of this horrendous, and I’ll use the word ‘execution’ of children, would be so very difficult. Yet to do it in the way it was done was an incredible acknowledgement to the families and the truth of these horrors, while plainly directing people to the hypocrisy of leaders who lament, pretending to be savior authoritarians, all the while spotlighting the unseen blood on their very own hands with their actions the world over. Would also like to acknowledge the efforts of Joe and Niall for connecting the evidence dots.
Couple of observations:
Of the likely thousands of articles across the states and the globe, while looking for something in particular, came across this from the very first day - from ABC News video. The reference is not visual, it is from an FBI spokesperson and is more of a curiosity about a possible narrative being planted at this early stage.
Apologies if this has already been brought up, may have missed it from links.
Connecticut School Shooting: 1 Gunman Confirmed Dead
12/14/2012
_http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/video/newtown-connecticut-school-shooting-sandy-hook-elementary-gunman-17974267
This was form the very beginning, as said, and here we have this FBI man (Brad Garret) after being introduced (3:21 – not quoted exactly) along with the FBI arriving on site with their swat team. He is saying that they don’t know how many shooters there are, yet then says, we need to assess the school for booby traps. The commentator then asks, that we know one man is dead and there may be a second shooter…Brad answers, …perhaps the deceased shooter will be the lead as to who the second shooter is. He says, if in fact there is a second shooter because I’ll tell you the problem in these cases, is that sometimes people see things that are not exactly accurate – the eye witness issue, where there may only be one shooter, but people…believe there is more than one, could well be two,
but keep that in mind.
This in itself may be a natural statement but it seems curious with respect to what the later evidence points to.
The next thing noticed was this narrative from the day after:
Police: Shooter Had Altercation at School Day Before Rampage

CNN said:
[snips] On Thursday, the day before the shootings, Lanza was involved in some kind of altercation at Sandy Hook Elementary, a law enforcement source told CNN.
The disagreement was between Lanza and four adults, three of whom were killed Friday, the source said. It’s not clear whether the altercation happened inside or outside the school, but it had something to do with Lanza trying to enter the school, the source said.
[this next part may have been said here]
Two days before the argument, Lanza tried unsuccessfully to buy a gun at Dick’s Sporting Goods in nearby Danbury on Tuesday, according to a law enforcement source with knowledge of the investigation. The source said store employees have been interviewed and have searched the store’s surveillance cameras for evidence that Lanza was there.
[what of those surveillance tapes?]
Nancy Lanza was a gun collector and recently showed off a newly bought rifle to fellow Newtown resident Dan Holmes, who owns a landscaping business in the town.
“She told me she’d go target shooting with her boys pretty often,” Holmes told CNN.
[how convienent, “with her boys”, yet this does not seem to hold water]
[Here are the new guns in the story – think that makes six; where were those found?]
Lanza also had access to at least three more guns, a second law enforcement source said. Investigators recovered a .45-caliber Henry Repeating Rifle, a .22-caliber Marlin Rifle and a .30-caliber Enfield Rifle, though it’s unclear where they were found, the source said.
Vance said Saturday that Lanza forced his way into the school, though he wouldn’t say how or whether Lanza used weapons to do it.
The dispatcher warned police and medical personnel that callers were reporting “multiple weapons, including one rifle and a shotgun.”
Finally, police arrived, including their Swat team and then, not sure how long after, the FBI and their Swat team. Not sure exactly what their team looks like, yet the team that was there, as described by an acquaintance with direct knowledge of special teams in the military, said they were large in number, arrived far too quickly and were armed in battle camouflage gear with camouflaged AR15’s and some were equipped with screwed on suppressors. He said this is not a normal swat team; some resembled outsiders i.e. hired guns, he said. Perhaps this is normal for down in that States, just thinking that it did seem rather different from other events, like there was a type of foreknowledge, a distinction between police Swat team, being normal for an event, and then this larger group enters the picture. Maybe the latter was just what was said, just a plain old FBI Swat team?
