He had many more issues than just Aspergers, which is a condition that varies greatly in each individual anyway. It IS very irresponsible and shameless the way MSM keeps referring to it, as if that's why the guy did what he did. He probably was over-medicated, had other severe personality disorders, and other issues like his parents' divorce and relationship, or lack of relationship, with his father and brother, and probably other issues that we don't yet know about. And apparently an obsession with violent shoot-em-up video games.
The MSM is much of the problem and then when you add in the internet with all the "experts" with their computers.....well you know.
By the way, has there been any official medical confirmation that Lanza was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome? I suspect the privacy laws we live with would indicate there has not been.

As somebody who has been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome it disturbs me to see the media focus on that as one of the possible reasons behind the CT school shooting. Not only that, but both people from the "compassionate right" and the "tolerant left" have pointed towards Asperger's as one of the ways in which the shooter was "mentally ill". I ask that people educate themselves before jumping to conclusions on why this tragedy took place. Crazy is crazy, and Asperger's Syndrome had nothing to do with it.

Yes, the brother seems pretty vague about whether any official diagnoses of any kind was made, and it could be that the mom didn't allow him to be treated. In fact she pulled him from school and home-schooled him.

Wow! Did you really post this in response to this poster's personal revelation? Unreal.
someone with asbergers can be also insane.
his mother didnt get him treatment for his illness and she taught him how to use these guns and allowed him access to them

His private medical history and treatment has been posted online somewhere? Wow! What happened to HIPAA? Got a link to prove what you claim to be true?

Simple question. Has anyone confirmed that the kid had asbergers?
As far as I have heard it has only been second hand information and hearsay.
Has anyone spoken to his doctor and gotten the information directly from him?
