If the other guy does it can make it a deficit very quickly.
White House weighs broad gun-control agenda in wake of Newtown shootings
Funny thing, back in the Clinton days when they were going after guns, there was a lot of wacko's shooting up kindergartens and Micky D's full of children. I noticed it went away pretty much under Reichsfuhrer GW Bush.
If this isn't going the way Obama wants it, I wouldn't be surprised to see another hit along the same lines to regarner public support.
Stay tuned.

The parents of kids killed in Columbine, Aurora and Sandy Hook might prefer those odds, if it means they could have their kids back. After all....the reason one owns a military assault rifle is to protect you against those who want to take your pistol from you. Just like those high schoolers and movie goers and elementary school kids wanted to do.

Can you prevent malpractice with a Bushmaster?
Dunno, but its the katz ass for wild dogs.
We know in vivid detail what guns Lanza used, how many shots he got off, where they landed and all.
Where is the media reports on what med's and why was this kid on them?
I may have missed the report or was there one?

I love it. Republicans complain of government intervention.... except when it is inconvenient for them. That is why they do not understand the ACLU. They fight for consistency of the law regardless of party or other affiliation.

Depends on if it comes from a police report. HIPAA applies to Doctor's/patient not police reports.
"When does the Privacy Rule allow covered entities to disclose protected health information to law enforcement officials?
Answer:
The Privacy Rule is balanced to protect an individual’s privacy while allowing important law enforcement functions to continue. The Rule permits covered entities to disclose protected health information (PHI) to law enforcement officials, without the individual’s written authorization, under specific circumstances summarized below. For a complete understanding of the conditions and requirements for these disclosures, please review the exact regulatory text at the citations provided. Disclosures for law enforcement purposes are permitted as follows:
To comply with a court order or court-ordered warrant, a subpoena or summons issued by a judicial officer, or a grand jury subpoena. The Rule recognizes that the legal process in obtaining a court order and the secrecy of the grand jury process provides protections for the individual’s private information (45 CFR 164.512(f)(1)(ii)(A)-(B)).
To respond to an administrative request, such as an administrative subpoena or investigative demand or other written request from a law enforcement official. Because an administrative request may be made without judicial involvement, the Rule requires all administrative requests to include or be accompanied by a written statement that the information requested is relevant and material, specific and limited in scope, and de-identified information cannot be used (45 CFR 164.512(f)(1)(ii)(C)).
To respond to a request for PHI for purposes of identifying or locating a suspect, fugitive, material witness or missing person; but the covered entity must limit disclosures of PHI to name and address, date and place of birth, social security number, ABO blood type and rh factor, type of injury, date and time of treatment, date and time of death, and a description of distinguishing physical characteristics. Other information related to the individual’s DNA, dental records, body fluid or tissue typing, samples, or analysis cannot be disclosed under this provision, but may be disclosed in response to a court order, warrant, or written administrative request (45 CFR 164.512(f)(2)).
This same limited information may be reported to law enforcement:
About a suspected perpetrator of a crime when the report is made by the victim who is a member of the covered entity’s workforce (45 CFR 164.502(j)(2));
To identify or apprehend an individual who has admitted participation in a violent crime that the covered entity reasonably believes may have caused serious physical harm to a victim, provided that the admission was not made in the course of or based on the individual’s request for therapy, counseling, or treatment related to the propensity to commit this type of violent act (45 CFR 164.512(j)(1)(ii)(A), (j)(2)-(3))."
Once it is in a police report or court proceeding, the media can do a FOIA [type] request.
I did find this:
"Meanwhile investigators remain silent on the questions regarding Adam Lanza’s reported history of psychiatric medications. Some classes of these drugs have clearly linked to violent behavior. Other scientists regard the drugs as causative of episodes of violent behavior. The Los Angeles Times reported Lanza’s former babysitter said Lanza was on some sort of medication since age 10. The former baby sitter, Ryan Kraft, is now an aerospace engineer in Hermosa Beach. Kraft said:
“I know there was something administered. I’m not sure what.”
And the Washington Post reported last month that a neighbor of Lanza’s, the suspected shooter in the Sandy Hook Elementary School killings, said that Lanza was on some form of medication. On Monday, December 17th, the Seattle Pi said that police had issued warrants for Lanza’s medical records to determine if Lanza was being treated for a medical or psychiatric condition, and what, if anything, was prescribed. No results of their examination of the records have been released. It has been reported that Lanza was diagnosed with a form of autism, for which a controversial class of drugs, known as SSRIs, have in the past been prescribed. Dr. Peter Breggin, a Harvard-trained psychiatrist and founder of the International Center for the Study of Psychiatry and Psychology, told the House Committee on Veterans Affairsin February of 2010:"

I love it. Liberal Demorats hate when gun activists express their rights, to own a gun, but don't have a problem with people using "Hippa Their Rights" to contain information, that might be pertinent !
