That is not a logical answer in any way. You would still have all of the responders that would have to be in on it. There is no logic behind these theory's whatsoever.

yeah the paper new who she was, they ran 12 stories from the 1st to the 13th of dec about the schools in there paper. I dont think the journalist was mistaken about the identity of the principle. heres the links to th 12 stories ran, newtownbee.com... newtownbee.com... newtownbee.com... newtownbee.com... newtownbee.com... newtownbee.com... newtownbee.com... newtownbee.com... newtownbee.com... newtownbee.com... newtownbee.com... newtownbee.com...

Quite right to say it is a big deal for ANY journalistic persona to publish a quote from a dead person. How did that person come to the conclusion that was in fact the person they were questioning? Did the person identify themselves as the principle? How could you mistake a math teacher for the principle of the school when asking about an account of facts that took place?
I understand bad reporting and I understand in the fog of war in rushing a story to the masses details can sometimes be amiss but as you said, this is one if a very LONG line of red flags regarding this incident and by no means is it so easy to dismiss as an obvious mistake.

With all due respect and not denying that you could possibly , maybe , perhaps , might, just a chance...just maybe.. Could possibly, sorta, maybe, potentially, have something that appears that you could possibly be right about your theory that these people did not die in a terrible, inhumane way... I don't believe it for a second.
When news of this sort, or really any sort, breaks... There will inevitably be some mistakes in the reporting. Someone surely said they were in a meeting and heard shots and then went out to investigate...but it wasn't the principal. Image yourself writing for a newspaper in such a chaotic event as this. Could you get your facts straight from the very beginning with precise consistency throughout the episode? Can you even imagine the chaos and confusion?
Believe it or not, some people aren't perfect. I find your post to be silly and disgusting. Full of hype with no common sense... Along with all the other posts like this one. Its shameful and full of ignorance. Grow some common sense instead of stars and flags... Sickening.
I agree there are some unanswered questions and some of the reports are inconsistent, but this thread is just sa The OP has no class, along with the lady in the video who seems to have a difficult time even reading much less figuring out WTH is going on in Sandy Hook!
I'm sure we would all like to believe that these poor souls are still alive somewhere, but if they are, where the hell would they be??? And would they be in a better place?
Sorry. . .Not buying into this BS.

Now I have to wonder, in a small town like this, where this newspaper source must have known the Principal of the school, or who she was, how could they take a quote from someone else claiming to be the principal? And if so, who was this "masked person" anyways?
yeah that was posted on the 17th, It took them 3 days to retract it after they deleted it first. I posted about 20 links that was about the school or this principle.they knew who she was. They got caught and then put out a retraction after 3 days. Why not the same day

I saw her being interviewed last week on Good morning America?? Is this the girlfriend you're talking about?
She said of course...the usual... He would never do anything like this....
Did she go missing? If so, she's probably one of the smarter ones! I'm sure the media was killing her!

What we have here is not "initial confusion". One week later we do not know: how long did the police wait after arriving, before entering (we do know there was a delay); how the shooter got in (still, not answered); what guns were used, what guns were found outside, in what cars? Still don't have a straight answer to this.
Why did he pick this school? Did the mother have ANY connection, whatsoever to the school, or not??
Who were the other shooters (if any)? Why no explanation about this quote from the principal? I remember it from the first time it appeared because I noticed the "shows" mistake. And on and on. An event a lot of people are ready to change the very second amendment over, and we know no facts.
The only thing that I heard about him is that he hadnt seen his son since june although they lived in the same town

This skinny, shy, autistic, sadistic, loner kid - all descriptions we've heard used - had a girlfriend? Really? What else are we supposed to believe? Oh and she was on Good Morning America? Say how about the rich father that was paying $250k in alimony? Anyone see him interviewed anywhere? I mean his ex-wife was murdered by his son who just shot 27 people, you would think the media would want to talk with him. Anyone see him other than a Linkedin photo? Anyone see them take any bodies out of the school?
