Sounds like the Parkland shooter


Parkland, Fla. area is far more affluent than Oxford, Mich. -- 3x more affluent; $350k avg home vs. $950k. The "rich" kids in Oxford live in $400k to $600k new builds, ex.

The COL in Parkland is higher. So the houses are the same.

Jeff should make a forum for Mass Shooting.

It's all over Twitter too. There's videos of the kid on Youtube from 5-6 years ago - he had a vlog. Seemed like a nerdy, well-meaning kid back then. The parents' home in the video was gross - stained carpets, trash everywhere.

My guess? He was radicalized by the internet and social media, plus one dumb gun-nut parent bought him a handgun.

This describes half of the country


And that half of the country has A LOT of guns, likely not secured.

I think laws targeting negligent parents who give their kids access the guns is the right way to start addressing this issue. It can happen quickly in Blue states. I think it will eventually spread to swing states too.

That’s not science.


What motive matters? He walked into a school and shot 11 victims - killing 3.


So you don’t care about what prompted him to do that? There HAS to be a reason. I’d like to know what it is. Why wouldn’t you?


Do I care what a misanthrope used for justification for committing this vile act? No. I think he deserves the electric chair.


The reason somebody is disgruntled is separate from the fact that he had access to a gun to kill others. If he did not have a gun, no one would be dead. The issue is the lack of gun control in our country and the fact that people bow down to the second amendment as if it itself cannot be amended. Going to become the God of the GOP who seem to worship the NRA and guns.


support for gun control is at a historic low because the “woke” movement has successfully defunded the police in many places (DC, Baltimore, Minnesota, CA).

Not surprisingly, crime is skyrocketing.

With 911 slowly fading away, a gun is my only protection from rape or home invasion robbery.

Before you parrot it: my training and safe-storage means my gun won’t be used against me, so don’t bother trotting out your meaningless and incorrect statistics from the Brady bunch about “a gun in the home.” It is misleading and you know it.


You sound awfully certain about that. Good luck.

wasn't there an incident where a pro-gun woman who taught gun safety classes was shot by her 4 yr old who got a hold of her gun from her handbag in the car?

A gun owner has a high chance of being shot accidently or not by their own gun because there is access to the gun. Most people don't live in high crime urban areas. So, if you live in the burbs and have a gun, you have a higher chance of being shot with your own gun than by a random shooter.

They also have a higher chance of someone in their household committing suicide with the gun, than using it on a random criminal. It's insanely illogical.

as stated many times, the extreme right and extremist Islamists have a lot in common.

Does incel qualify as extreme right or is that it's own thing?

Praying for Madisyn, Hana, Tate and Justin and their families.

I remember a Sandy Hook dad talking about sending two children to school in the morning and only one came home. Please remember the very brave Dawn Hochsprung.

So sad and I see no way forward for us.

I would bet anything he was being tormented at school for being poor, pudgy, and unathletic. Bullying is so freaking cruel and typically nobody at large high schools gives a damn.
