school shooting case

"There’s a reason why no parent in America has ever been held responsible for
the criminal acts of their child in relation to a school shooting," Dezsi
continued. "It is because Mrs. Crumbley committed no crime. This case should be
concerning for parents everywhere."
How can he lie like that?

Reply #11664308 These situations are all around
sad af, but unless the parents bought the gun for the kid knowing the kid was
crazy, they shouldn't be charged with anything. With the Highland Park shooting
here, the dad knew the son was suicidal and had issues in the past, so it is
infuriating, he got such a crazy a gun.
That's bs they want to say she failed to control her minor child. Sometimes,
it's not the parent, but what happens at school. Kids at a certain age spend
more time at school than at home. The parent can be perfect. I am also against
charging the shooters as adults especially when bullying was involved. Charging
kids as adults is medieval either way (just my opinion though and I respect many
others may disagree) unless they are very very close to being 18, but even 18 vs
25 mentality is debatable. We always feel bad for the poor victims, but never
ask what drove people to insanity to a point where they decided to arm
themselves and shoot their classmates. Now, the Sandy Hook case was a huge
outlier. Adam Lanza didn't go to that school and to my knowledge never did. He
had NO motive in shooting very small children. He was just a disturbed psycho
whose mom made the mistake by bringing him to shooting ranges and stuff. His dad
was also an absent asshole.
If we can have sympathy for Gypsy Rose who was 24 when she killed her mom and
set up a disabled man, we should have sympathy for children. Look at Carly Gregg
who was very disturbed on meds and killed her mom. She rejected a 40 year plea
deal and was given life without the possibility of parole in Mississippi. She
was only 14. 10 years younger than Gypsy was. IMHO, such a disturbed child
should have never been charged as an adult. I get her crime was vile and I love
my mother and can never imagine committing such a heinous crime, but Carly Gregg
had terrible terrible mental illness and we don't know enough about how drugs
affect the minds of children. I donated some money to her grandparents as they
are trying to do an appeal for her. I feel bad for the grandparents. They lost
their daughter and now a granddaughter. They just know their daughter would have
wanted them to stand by Carly regardless, would have never wanted Carly charged
as an adult and must be rolling in her grave.

Reply #15284314 I have never owned a gun nor felt
a desire. I respect the 2A and understand the reason behind it, but I also
believe some sick people should never have access to a firearm. Living in a city
with a police station near by, you usually do not need one. I can see why in
rural areas you would. Then again, you can also argue the 2A is not about self
defense.

Reply #17825029 So medical privacy laws prohibit
disclosure of what meds people are on. But this is in USA, not other countries.
Basically I think 100% of school shooting perps are taking prescription
psychotropic drugs at direction of a physician or psychologist. It's well known
that a lot of these drugs cause suicidal thoughts, especially when used in
combination.
