Final Sandy Hook report released

[Capt. Obvious]

Some light reading

1. It is not the final report. It is a summary.

The final report, which is not complete, is supposed to be several thousand pages long. What the state of CT released is a summary.

2. The public need not know the details

Just causes families even more heart-choking grief.

If what is now already known is not enough to get reasonable gun safety measures, then nothing more will accomplish that.

SIX years old.

7. That's absurd

I agree that the photos of the victims should not be released. If the autopsy reports are released any photos and ALL identifying information of who the report pertains to should be redacted.

However the citizens of CT have a right to know that the police and other government entities involved in this tragedy took the proper steps before, during and after this tragedy.

If we don't know what our government does, how do we know if something needs to be fixed?

5. And he didn't use an assault weapon!

6. And where did you pull that response out of?

I simply pointed out that the report was a summary and not the final report.

3. The appendix is a separate document due to its size.
