    If you remember when this happened, his parents were in interviews trying to turn it into a “This is how the libs come for your guns!” situation. The kid was also reported to have said he hoped “Biden gets impeached due to my shooting”. He was 15 at the time of the shooting.

    This is a prime example of people being radicalized by the rhetoric from right-wingers. The parents first, then they brainwashed this kid into thinking he’d somehow be a hero for doing this. Sad all around.

      Everything the right says is projection of past deeds or intent.

      The whole grooming thing is just a projection of them doing their best to radicalize their own kids and doing their darnest to infest the school and other systems to further groom and indoctrinate their kids into radical racist pieces of shit.

      Kid was basically crying out, saying he had violent thoughts. Dumb parents thought the better idea was to get him a gun and let him shoot at targets “to vent his anger.”

      Meanwhile they continue neglecting him, leaving him home alone all the time so the deadbeats can go to the bar and drink all day and night.

      Meanwhile the kid is bullied relentlessly at school. I don’t condone what he did but it’s a miserable existence. Unfortunately whether it’s based on personal experiences or genetics the harsh reality is some people turn to either suicide or homicide when there is no other hope left and their world stability had completely shattered for years and no end in sight.
