Marlow I would suggest you go here:

And listen to the first 2 or 3 in the timeline from Newtown and Fairfield recordings. .... They both explain why no EMT'S were allowed at the school. It was an active shooter scene for close to an hour. ... so they set up staging at the firehouse.

Credibility is given when a member is consistent, has a solid posting record, and doesn't sway from their views.
Respecting someone's opinion and views is one thing. That's fine.
Personally, nothing will erase the fact that my B.S meter went off, for every single one of the people interviewed in this case. I don't believe them at all. So, with that said, anybody who lives in CT, can say whatever they want..and it could be great information. No offense, I appreciate the effort to help. However, it won't override the fact that those who were directly involved in this case are not believable...for me. False Flag.

I will repost, again, what I posted in other threads dealing with Sandy Hook, because I want in know how I -- one of the chief architects of what ATS is today -- thinks of our membership in respect to the subject:
The Tragedy at Sandy Hook
HAS BROUGHT OUT THE WORST
of AboveTopSecret.com
I and our staff have witnessed the most incredible shameless self-absorbed credulous nonsense from our members following one of the worst horrors ever to hit a small community -- much less any community.
And this thread is the absolute worst display of your ludicrous narcissistic conjecture -- outing personal details of a private citizen and mocking him on the pages of our precious ATS for the world to see.
You should be ashamed -- but clearly, you're not capable of that.
This site, and its discussion board, was refashioned between 2003 and 2005 to hold conspiracy speculation to a higher standard and ideal than the typical mayhem and lunacy that was then popular throughout Internet communities dealing with similar subject matter. Our motto of "Deny Ignorance" was a call to action to be skeptical critical thinkers with regard to official stories and the ever worsening mass media. We took a great deal of flak, absorbed consistent criticism, and often saw ourselves smeared simply for holding to our ideals that these subjects deserve better of us. ATS management and staff held strong, never wavered, and grew to one of the most popular discussion boards of any topic.
The wildly foolish self-absorbed conjecture regarding the massacre in Newtown, CT has, in my opinion, thrown the quality of conversation on ATS all the way back to how horrible it was before we started our 6 years of hard work. Posting personal information of private citizens, then casting nasty aspersions on them, is the lowest of lows I've ever seen on this site for which I was once proud.
Those who have the urge to speculate on the minute oddities of the "story line" as is currently known should take fair warning that if the ethical quality of the discussion does not immediately improve, the staff will have no choice but to place a temporary hold on all discussions related to the massacre.
The staff and I will not let you ruin our years of hard work and suffer your ridiculousness.

This was my reaction to the interviews as well. Originally I thought all the parents were too devastated to talk about the death of their child therefore the news had to replace them with temp actors for quick footage. I felt that every single interview was fishy, no matter how hard I tried to think from their perspective. Someone gave them the benefit of the doubt that everyone interviewed are in shock, but I'm still not buying it. There's even a rehearsal video from that Gene Rosen guy, is this the respect we have for a tragedy?
What I'm trying to say is I'm glad a lot more people are contributing to this as I'm changing my opinions on some info, but to have a mod denounce questioning the parents reaction or lack of reaction is unfair. Nothing is absolute.edit on 5-1-2013 by peashooter because: (no reason given)

What part of the message from SO and Springer did you NOT understand? You're doing it again, please stop with the assumptions about the grieving parents, and NO, you should never post up anyone's personal details on a forum, just because you can find it in a phone book or whatever, does not give you the right to post it here in conjunction with wild speculation.
