Subject: Adam Lanza's Tumblr Activity - New FBI Information Fri Oct 27, 2017 12:49 am
This thread is for any information related to the new accounts belonging to Adam Lanza that were revealed by the recent release of FBI files regarding Sandy Hook.
If you find any Tumblr posts that have not been included, please take a screenshot because no direct links to Tumblr posts are allowed and please make sure that onlyAdam Lanza's username and comments are visible in anything you intend to post to the forum.Also, please refrain from posting anything you find that may include graphic death photos like the leaked Columbine suicide photos because those are not allowed either.
An online friend of Adam Lanza informed the FBI that Adam had previously had Tumblr accounts under the names gayfortimk and queerforkimveer which he deleted in November of 2012. The names are references to two foreign mass shooters, Tim Kretschmer, who killed 15 people in a 2009 mass shooting in Winnenden, Germany before committing suicide with a 9mm pistol shot to the head and Kimveer Gill, who killed one person and injured 19 in a 2006 shooting in Montreal, Canada before shooting himself in the head with a 9mm Glock pistol. Unlike Kretschmer and Gill who were both wounded by the police before their suicides, Adam never engaged with law enforcement and instead retreated when police entered the school and quickly shot himself in the head with a 10mm Glock pistol.
This is a series of posts from the account gayfortimk where he contrasted similar photos of mass shooters while providing their names along with the year in which their crime was committed.

This was a compilation of death and suicide photos of various mass shooters (though death photos are not allowed on the forum so the actual image has been edited out).
It's worth noting Adam's cheeky description of the Columbine suicides based on the popular rumors that Eric and Dylan were gay and that Eric murdered Dylan, at the same time displaying his intimate knowledge of the Columbine community and distancing himself from the Columbiners who idolize them. This sort of commentary matches the attitude he expressed on the SCMRPG forum, where he repeatedly made jokes about the Columbine killers when he bothered to reference Columbine at all.
In addition to that, it also perfectly represents Adam's usual style of referencing intricate details, such as the exact location of injuries and weapons which caused the deaths of the shooters.
This compilation was posted to "Morbid Reality" on Reddit in October of 2012 and there are two comments in the thread which may suggest that Adam posted it himself. One comment credits Adam's blog and the other links to a SBB thread where he claims to have first seen one of the photos. The user who posted the compilation and comments deleted his account so the username is no longer visible.
(If you want a link to the thread you can PM me or search "The corpses of spree shooters" to find it for yourself.)

Adam posted a map which he may have created from his own research that marked the locations of mass shootings over a period of 30 years, along with some sarcastic commentary on the phenomenon.
Subject: Re: Adam Lanza's Tumblr Activity - New FBI Information Fri Oct 27, 2017 5:08 am
Man, I really need that voicemail publicised but I saw that another user had posted it and was wondering to repost it and give him credit but figured to let them have their glory.

The forum staff is insistent that links are not allowed to be posted but I gave the usernames in the opening post so you can search for yourself if you would like. In any case, there is not really any link to give because both accounts were deleted around November of 2012. These surviving blog posts were only able to be located because of Tumblr's system where reblogs are preserved on any blog that isn't deleted even when the original post or account is deleted.
I have not finished posting everything that was located but if you want to see the pictures and captions from the other posts that have been located, most of them are already in the other thread about the FBI information. Other than that, you can also search Tumblr yourself because his very old posts have been reblogged by some of the current bloggers who are interested in Lanza as well.

Adam posted a link to a compilation of monologues from movies and television shows where the shooters explain themselves.
This is the video from the post. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
It was uploaded to a Dailymotion account with the name GFTK which means that it was probably created by gayfortimk and that Lanza put these videos together himself. We know that he was obsessive about collecting videos about fictional and real mass shootings as well as music related to shootings and information about perpetrators so it makes sense that he would create and share videos like these. There are a few other videos on the account. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
Edit: The following Tumblr posts were found by someone after I posted the rest of the information to the thread. I'm inserting the Tumblr posts that go with them now.
This video is called "Publicly Available" which appears to be a compilation of surveillance footage and news clips of various real life shootings. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
(No post found for this one yet as far as I can tell.)
This video is called "Best Scene" and it is a scene from a fictional movie where a boy is being encouraged to take revenge on his bullies by an adult who wishes that he could have done the same thing to the people who tormented him when he was in school. I don't know the name of the movie, so if anyone recognizes it please share. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
Another edit: The clip is from a short film called Class Savage. Thanks [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.].
The last video is called "Monologues" and it contains several videos and audio recordings that real life shooters made to explain themselves. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] 1. Seung-Hui Cho 2. Sebastian Bosse 3. Alvaro Castillo 4. Wellington Oliveira 5. Christian Helms 6. Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold

They are Wellington Oliveira and Chris Helms as far as I can tell. There are only six different sections so I'm guessing that you may be confused because there are two different videos of Castillo.
Cho starts off the video. Bosse starts around 1:00. Castillo starts around 3:00. Oliveira starts around 4:05. Helms starts around 5:00. Harris and Klebold start around 5:20.
Hopefully I haven't misidentified anyone but I think this is accurate.

Adam posted the trailer for a movie about a high school student who commits a school shooting. It's called "Hello Herman." [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
The trailer he linked is located here. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
The video was uploaded September 16, 2012 so we can date this post to the last few months of his life.
Interestingly, in 2013, someone commented on the video and actually mentioned Newtown.
Quote :
hmmm.... based on this trailer, it's unlikely I would go see. I understand the need to address kids who suffer from bullying and solving their problems before they go on a shooting spree, but don't think glamorizing his story, especially in the wake of Newtown tragedy, is appropriate or appealing. I was bullied as a child as well, but never did I feel the need for revenge. I could go on about my thoughts about these mentally disturbed kids, but I'm not an expert in that field, and I believe for my own personal experience, was just raised by strong parents who taught me values.
It's interesting to me how many of these videos, both real and fictional, seem to focus on the subject of bullying as the cause of school shootings. There were reports that Adam was mildly bullied in his middle school or high school years and Nancy Lanza informed one of Adam's high school teachers "that he worried about dying, being bullied, and that he was acutely aware that he was different from other kids" and asked her to avoid any literature that touched on these subjects for fear that they would affect him negatively, causing insomnia and a loss of appetite. Yet Adam didn't seem to focus as much on bullying when formulating his theories about the causes of school shootings.
Smiggles wrote:
Is it really so ideal to have good and efficient citizens? All they'll do is be more effective at propagating the system you hate. Power trips and bullying are just symptoms, not the disease itself.
And in a thread where someone posted a "touching video" of a young boy telling his story of how being bullied hurt him, Adam's response was to post a video about the suicide of one of the subjects of "To Catch a Predator." I think the intention was to say that if you can feel empathy for a boy who cuts himself after being called a fag then you should also be able to feel empathy for a man who kills himself after being exposed as a pedophile (and that was the gist of the first part of the essay Adam wrote on pedophilia, where he compared the same incident with the suicide of Tyler Clementi). It ties into Adam's notion that cultural indoctrination and societal brainwashing causes needless harm which people tolerate because they have been taught to tolerate it, and that culture is the root of all problems in society, including bullying and mass murder.

Well to be fair to Adam, how many films about a school shooting didn't focus on bullying as a motive? It's the cause that the media focuses the most on, after all.

Yep. I suppose the motivation behind almost every school shooting in fiction centering around bullying is that it provides a simple and easy to understand explanation of a phenomena that, for all intents and purposes, cannot be explained in a simple fashion.

Here are a few more queerforkimveer posts.
I didn't have much to say about the Cho post and I still don't, so I hadn't taken the time to copy it here. I guess my only comment is that as far as I can tell, there are no missing photos and there were really only 10 included, not 19. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Adam apparently posted this but I don't know that he made it himself because it was the only uncaptioned post so far and I still don't know if the Youtube user fuckcomments was Adam (and yes, I still have doubts) but a comment made by him seems to echo the point of the joke being made here so I'll post it even though I'm unsure that Adam wrote it.
fuckcomments wrote:
arguing metal is so fucking gay. bet you wear wrist bands with spikes and think you are tough? haha, real men that listen to metal don’t dress like that faggot ass shit, we take this music along when we are firing our weapons, sharpening our knives, stabbing people we hate, crushing their skulls from behind with tire-irons, you fags are dancing around in nailpolish nudging eachother, so pathetic, a scene like that makes me want to toss some molotovs at you flamers and open up with my Ar-15.
The first thing that jumps out at me about this post is that this is one occasion where I actually don't think Adam was being sarcastic, even if it was a joke. In July of 2012, Adam wrote to an online friend and expressed a similar sentiment to what's written on the shirt.
Adam Lanza wrote:
My interest in mass murdered [sic] has been perfunctory for such a long time. The enthusiasm I had back when Virginia Tech happened feels like it’s been gone for a hundred billion years. I don’t care about anything. I’m just done with it all.
It's also worth pointing out that Lo's shooting occurred on December 14, 1992, which means that the shooting occurred the year Adam was born and that Adam committed his shooting on the 20th anniversary of Lo's shooting. Adam also noted in his last forum post that Columbine "was the apex of a string of school shootings which began increasing with Lu Gang and Wayne Lo in the early 1990s." [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
(I also wanted to point that the only Tumblr posts I found myself were the ones that I originally posted in the other thread when I found them on the day that the FBI documents were released, which means the credit for some of what I have posted here goes to a Tumblr user whose name I am unfortunately not allowed to post here. I just don't want to make it seem like I'm taking credit for things I have not found but anyone can PM me and I will point them to this Tumblr account if they also want to keep an eye out for new posts that are found.
Other than the posts that I already noted finding myself in the other thread, you can assume that anything I post was found by someone else unless I specify that I located it on my own. For example, I did find the first two posts but did not find the third post.)

Columbine was certainly the apex for 90's era school shootings, and is by far the most well known and influential school shooting; When people think "school shooting" Columbine is the first thing that pops into mind. Although there have been far deadlier attacks in recent years, including the ones that you've mentioned, none of them comes close to the lasting impact that Columbine has had. All of this is irrelevant however, because I assume that in the above quote Lanza meant that columbine was "apex" of the 1990's school shooting spate specifically.

yeah i guess he meant the specific era of shootings, but now a days it seems like younger kids no sandy hook as "that shooting". Most young people when they thiking shooting its
1.vegas
2.pulse
3. sandy hook
4.columbine

Here is another post related to Robert Hawkins. It is the audio of 911 calls related to the Westroads Mall shooting. It's very strange to think that a few years after this, there were 911 calls of the Sandy Hook shooting on Youtube where people wondered if they were hearing Adam's suicide shot.
Here is a link to the audio that was posted: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

I'm not sure if there was any text that accompanied this post. I feel like there probably was considering that most of the other posts had comments, but the only surviving reblog had a comment with gibberish to the effect of "omgomgog" so they may have deleted the original text.

I've seen most of these before but definitely not the first one.
One reason I really want to know if he posted a comment with it is because I'd like to know what he may have said about Robert.
On the old Columbine forum he actually made a post about Robert on the fourth anniversary of his shooting. He posted information and also links to pictures he had found online, possibly from Robert's Myspace account.

Not sure about anyone else but some of these links aren't working for me right now. Luckily, I do have them saved from a while ago but I'm only going to post the first two photos which are supposed to have Robert in them.
I wonder why he didn't post these childhood photos of Robert in that compilation. This is honestly the first thing that makes me wonder if there's any possibility that this account didn't belong to him but maybe he only wanted to include photos of Robert in his later years. Without a comment, we can't know!

He collected a list of 16 hours of music related to school shootings so I can only imagine how many hours of shooting related movies and television shows he watched. If you look at some of his posts on the forum you can see that he actually commented about movies and television episodes related to school shootings a number of times.
In regard to your question, it looks like he sourced those movies in his post. If you go back to the screenshot, you can see the list and I think it's probably complete and written in the order of appearance in the video.

Can anyone name all of the movies used in "Fictional Monologues"? I recognized Bang Bang You're Dead and Zero Day, but not much else. Really goes to show how far Adam's obsession went if he sought out so many different movies centering on this subject...

Okay, found two more posts from the gayfortimk account and I'm also adding one that someone else found.
The first two aren't that interesting, just a list of questions for other people (with the blog names and pictures censored). I think the most interesting thing is that he chose questions about anger and death and even asked about animals. If you had to sum up Adam's interests, that might be a good start.
I guess it's also interesting that he asked what she would say if the whole world was listening to her. When he committed the massacre, Adam had the attention of the entire nation and could have said anything he wanted to but apparently, he chose to say nothing at all.
This was a post found by someone else several days ago but I never bothered to post it here because it didn't include the questions that were being asked and I was hoping to find the original list. Instead, I found the post above. He chose the same numbers for both of these bloggers so we can assume that she was answering the same questions.
Not much to say about it since we already know that Adam was suicidal but it suggests that Adam had an interest in Tim that went beyond a silly username. Adam's online friend did specifically mention Tim K. to the FBI as one of the shooters that Adam mentioned (notes from the interview pictured below) but he never mentioned him on the Columbine forum at all, as far as I know.

One more comparison post thanks to [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]. Even though "serial killers are lame," we have two pictures of Gary Ridgway, the Green River Killer, included this time.

This combined with the John Hinckley Jr. picture seems to indicate that although mass murderers were undoubtedly the primary area of his interest, he had some level of interest in other killers. It's the same with me really.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] That's exactly what I thought. I would like to see if there are any more posts that suggest how much interest he might have had in other killers.

According to Adam, he was usually "not interested in non-Kaczynski bombers." He may have had some ideological interest in Kaczynski but as far as I know, he never showed any interest in Timothy McVeigh and never shared an opinion on Waco.

Killing the two kid's entire family and their dog seems like a far greater revenge than actually killing them.

Not Ridgeway, the George Geschwendt guy. He was reportedly harassed by two sons of the family he murdered; He broke into their house with the intention of killing them, but since they didn't show up he killed their family members and their dog instead.

Thanks! I'm going to edit that into the post.
And by the way, have you come across any Tumblr post confirming that he posted this video to Tumblr along with the others? I haven't yet.

So Adam was just obsessed with mass murderers like other Autistic individuals would be obsessed with Trains or whatever? Makes sense honestly, it's a shame he didn't get into something like sonic or anime instead

Thanks to [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], this is another compilation created by Adam Lanza. This time it's a collage of pistols used by mass shooters.
Full resolution image: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
It would be a useful teaching aid for anyone concerned about the relationship between mass shootings and the availability of "high powered assault rifles."
Aside from mass shootings, Adam was also obsessed with guns. On his hard drive, he had bookmarks pertaining to "Firearms" and "Ammunition," numerous images of firearms and ammunition, as well as a text document titled "Organized" which detailed weapons and magazine capacity and a PDF document that was a 2009 catalogue of firearms. When he edited Wikipedia articles related to mass shootings, many of his edits focused on the exact model of firearm used by a perpetrator.
I am curious whether anyone will uncover another collage of other types of firearms used by mass shooters or whether this was the only one that he made. Adam almost exclusively used a semi-automatic rifle in his own attack but he once explained that in terms of mass killing, "the aesthetic of pistols tends to be just right" and he shot himself in the head with a 10mm pistol at the end of his attack.
He even expressed a fondness for pistols on the forum for his Combat Arms clan. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
He also mentioned having a "fetish" for the .32 ACP caliber when he was inquiring about the legality of a particular pistol in Connecticut. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
When investigators searched the Lanza home, they also found a check from Nancy made out to Adam which was dated for Christmas Day 2012 with a notation specifying "CZ 83" which is another pistol that is sold in .32 ACP.
Clearly, Adam preferred pistols but it seems that he knew that his Bushmaster rifle was the gun that would cause the most devastating injuries and kill the highest number of victims, which is probably why he began his rampage with the rifle despite carrying two pistols with him that day.
Edit: I forgot this before but the other thing I wanted to note was that he referred to Anders Breivik as "Marxist Hunter" which was a reference to the patch he created, proclaiming his authority to hunt down "multiculti traitors" like the leftist youth who were on Utoya the day of his attack.
