Teen Mom Cast: Who’s Pregnant? Who’s Stealing Kids?

It’s been a wild ride lately for the cast of Teen Mom 2 … but is it about to get even wilder yet? According to the celebrity news (term used loosely) magazine cover below, you bet it is: So, apparently there’s some SHOCKING baby news on the horizon for the fabulous four. But who do you think it’s about?! Are Jenelle Evans and Courtland Rogers expecting, weeks after a quickie marriage? Is pregnant Leah Messer encountering more difficulties, as she did the last time? Did Maci Bookout of the original Teen Mom get pregnant again? By whom? Apparently in Jenelle’s case, she’s planning to “steal” son Jace back. This is because she doesn’t have custody of her own kid, of course. Always a good sign. Leah’s “difficult decision” sort of implies she’s ending the pregnancy, but we wouldn’t bet on it. As for Maci … a sister for Bentley? That she’s at least talked about in recent memory, but we’d be surprised at this point as well. Basically all lies most likely. Before long, actual drama will present itself though. You can bet on it with this crew. Case in point: Corey Simms and Miranda Patterson getting engaged!

Adam Lanza: Should His Parents Have Seen Warning Signs?

Plenty of fingers have been and will continue to be pointed in the aftermath of the Connecticut school shooting, but could Adam Lanza’s parents have ever seen this coming? Their 2008 divorce papers reveal nothing that would indicate their son had serious mental issues, however, there may have been some warning signs. A mediator who worked with the couple recalled his mother saying she didn’t like to leave him alone and that his parents went out of their way to accommodate him. Marriage therapist Paula Levy said that during about 10 two-hour sessions, Nancy and Peter Lanza were respectful of each other and concerned about their son. She says the couple told her that Adam Lanza , then 16-17 years old, had been diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome, an autism-like disorder. They spent considerable time talking about how to provide for his well-being. Peter and Nancy Lanza split up for good the following year, and were financially well off; In 2012 Nancy was to receive $289,800 in spousal support. Levy says the Lanzas agreed how to divide caretaking responsibilities and as a result said little about Adam; there was no mention of serious mental issues. Certainly nothing that could even hint at the Newtown , Conn., massacre. Adam Lanza shot his mother in the head with a rifle Friday, at the home where they lived, then headed to Sandy Hook Elementary School armed with her three guns . With a high-power rifle, two handguns and enough ammunition to kill nearly every child in the building, he killed 20 students, six adults and himself. Authorities have pored over computer, cellphone and credit card records trying to piece together the Lanza family’s days leading up to the shooting. Adam and Nancy are survived by his brother Ryan and Peter Lanza , who, in a statement this weekend, said that like everyone else, is floored. “We too are asking why,” he said. “We have cooperated fully with law enforcement and will continue to do so. Like so many of you, we are saddened, but struggling to make sense of what has transpired.”

Victoria Jackson: Adam Lanza No Different Than Obama, Women Who Have Abortions

Former Saturday Night Live star and conservative activist Victoria Jackson has made a series of controversial comments in the wake of the Sandy Hook Elementary School murders. She harshly criticized President Barack Obama, which is hardly surprising, but her comments on killer Adam Lanza raised eyebrows – even by Jackson standards. Of the Newtown, Conn., shooting, Jackson posted on Facebook, quoting a friend: “Wasn’t the Connecticut killer just doing what abortionists do every day?” “It’s a wonder we don’t have more 20-year-old ‘dads’ doing what women and doctors have been an accomplice to for years. When you forget the TEN COMMANDMENTS, THIS is what you get’.” While one outraged person said that Jackson should have to “go before all of the families that lost loved ones” with her views, that didn’t stop her for a second. The Tea Party supporter went on to criticize President Barack Obama, claiming his pro-choice views are tantamount to mass murder along Lanza’s lines. Jackson wrote: “Obama dramatically wiped a tear as he said, ‘The majority of those who died today were children – beautiful little kids … They had their entire lives ahead of them.” “YEAH OBAMA. SAME AS THE MILLION BABIES YOU HAD ABORTED THIS YEAR IN AMERICA. ARE YOU CRYING FOR THEM?!” Jackson, who describes herself as being “an outspoken activist for the conservative movement,” on Facebook, may be understating the outspoken part. In President Obama’s Newtown speech last night, he called for America to ask “hard questions” about itself and whether we are doing all we can to care for our children. No response yet from Victoria, but you can bet it won’t be a measured one.

Newtown Tragedy: Crazy Connecticut Shooter Adam Lanza Shot His Mother In The Face With Her Own Gun After She Taught Him How To Use Rifles

Adam Lanza learned to shoot with his mother, an avid gun collector. Adam Lanza Used Mother’s Gun For Newtown Murders Via RadarOnline reports: Now Nancy Lanza is dead, shot in the face by her 20-year-old son who used one of her own weapons to commit the murder, before heading off to Shady Hook Elementary School and slaughtering 26 more students and staff. “She said she would often go target shooting with her kids,” local business owner Dan Holmes told Reuters. He added that she once showed him a “high-end rifle” that she’d purchased. Nancy Lanza also has a son, Ryan, 24, from her marriage to Peter Lanza. Both Peter and Ryan have successful careers in the financial world. As RadarOnline.com has been reporting, Adam Lanza, who many sources have said was “troubled” or “disturbed,” shot his mother and then went to the school where she’d previously worked and killed 20 students and six staff before taking his own life. The weapons he took into the school were a Glock and a Sig Sauer, both semiautomatic hand guns, and a .223 Bushmaster, a military-style assault weapon. They were all legally purchased by and registered to Nancy Lanza, who reportedly owned at least two additional high power firearms. Connecticut State Police Lt. J. Paul Vance said authorities are now “investigating the history of each and every weapon” that Adam Lanza carried to the scene of the rampage. Words cannot express the hurt of those families who were affected. Do you think the shooter would have done this horrific murder massacre had his mother not shared her obsession of guns with him?

OJ Simpson Murders: Caught on Video?!

A disturbing, shameless, yet kind of hilarious new tabloid report claims the infamous 1994 O.J. Simpson murders were actually caught on video. Yes, the National Enquirer claims it has video from O.J.’s ALLEGED (totally real) slayings of ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman. On the one hand, the Enquirer reached a new low with this one. On the other hand … admit it, you kinda wanna read this, right? How on earth this celebrity news (term used beyond loosely, like Lindsay Lohan loosely) publication keeps going back to the OJ well, we have no idea. Perhaps because we’re all still curious HOW the Juice did it. No, we couldn’t bring ourselves to buy If I Did It and who knows if that was even true. Or maybe Glen Rogers did it like he claims. Just kidding. It was all O.J. But what if a video truly caught him in the act? How incredible would that be? Obviously the tape would’ve been found in the past 18 YEARS. Still. In other Enquirer news, Macaulay Culkin attempted suicide and Lindsay Lohan is heading to the mental ward. Those are actually far more believable.

Obama Comments on Pot, Says Feds Won’t Pursue Users in Colorado, Washington

President Barack Obama commented today on new state laws that legalized marijuana in Colorado and Washington saying the U.S. won’t pursue pot users there. Following the November votes in those states, the Justice Department reiterated that marijuana remains illegal under federal law, worrying legalization advocates. Obama had been vague on what the federal government’s specific response would be. In an interview with Barbara Walters Friday, however, he said: “It does not make sense from a prioritization point of view” to focus on drug use where it is now legal. “We’ve got bigger fish to fry ,” the newly-reelected president added. Marijuana activists were relieved at Obama’s comments, but still had many questions. They said even if individual users aren’t charged, marijuana producers and sellers could be subject to prosecution, civil forfeiture and other legal roadblocks. Obama also didn’t specifically address how the U.S. government would respond to state officials in Washington and Colorado and their efforts to implement this. Those officials are now tasked with coming up with regulations for legal pot sales. Obama simply told Walters that “recreational users” are not a “top priority.” “There’s some signal of hope,” Alison Holcomb, who led Washington’s legalization drive, said. “I think it’s correct that we ultimately we need a legislative resolution.” But Tom Angell of Marijuana Majority said Obama’s comment isn’t anything new, and he could use executive power to reclassify marijuana as a legal drug. In recent years, federal prosecutors haven’t targeted users in the 18 states and Washington, D.C. that allow people to use marijuana for medical reasons. However, agents have cracked down on many dispensaries in some of those states.   In any event, thanks to statewide ballot measures, possession of up to an ounce of marijuana is now legal for adults over 21 in both Washington and Colorado. Washington’s Liquor Control Board, which has been regulating alcohol for 78 years, now has a year to adopt rules for the fledgling pot industry.

Ryan Lanza: Connecticut School Shooter Identified?

The alleged shooter in today’s tragic Connecticut school shooting was identified by NBC News as Ryan Lanza, 24, who reportedly also killed his father in Hoboken, N.J. However, reports now conflict as to whether this is truly the case; several sources believe his brother, 20-year-old Adam Lanza , was actually the shooter. WNBC says Lanza then drove to Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., an hour east of N.Y. City, where his mother was the kindergarten teacher. There, Lanza was said to have been responsible for the Connecticut school shooting that claimed 26 lives – 18 of them children – before he killed himself. The gunman opened fire after wanting through the front office, then walked to his mother’s classroom and opened fire, killing her and other students. Lt. Paul Vance of the Connecticut State Police would not confirm the shooter’s identity, only saying that “the shooter is deceased inside the building.” Vance said the incident began after a 911 call from the school to Newtown Police at 9:41 a.m. The police immediately called State police and other local law enforcement for mutual aid. Vance said that when his officers arrived at the school, they made “immediate entry.” Vance would not give specific numbers on how many children and how many staff are dead and walked away when asked if that was the only shooter. There are reports that there is a person in custody but that has not been confirmed; Vance said there would be another press conference shortly. CNN first identified the killer as Ryan Lanza, but the New York Post claims Adam Lanza was responsible and that Ryan is being questioned by police, but not a suspect. Story developing …
