[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now I hope the dad is held to the same standard as mom.

Parents should absolutely be held accountable for their children’s behavior/gun access.[/quote]

I honestly believe this verdict will save lives.    Because of this, at least a few parents of troubled teenage boys will get rid of the guns they keep in their house, or will be extra vigilant about keeping their guns locked and secured, or will simply choose to *not* buy or provide guns for them under any circumstances.  It’s sad that this is what it takes, but some future shootings will  be averted.[/quote]

Doubtful.

Ethan Crumbley had a serious mental illness. Where did it come from?
At least one of his parents probably also did, and the other married someone who did.

The law is written around the assumption of "reasonable person". A substantial portion of the population does not meet that cognitive standard (and several prominent politicians succeed by catering to this cohort ) and most likely the Crumbley parents are in that cohort.
