Don’t make excuses for shooter

Fri., Dec. 28, 2012

Regarding the murders at Sandy Hook, my question is: why was that boy not in a mental hospital being given medication? Why?

There were two ministers and a rabbi being interviewed at the scene on Dec. 17 and the rabbi said the boy had been bullied in school. No excuse for that and no excuse for the murders. Too many unanswered questions. So sad.
