Lock TILL old you mean dear god
will he be tried the same was if he committed the atrocities?
If he was Black they would've dropped a nuke on his ass, holy fuck.
yeah, that's something else I have thought about when the Florida victims' murderer was revealed to be white, is, why do I feel like even as an evil person as him why do I feel like he's going to have privileges in his trial, simply because he is white? I feel like if he was black, or brown, or Arab, Latino, Asian,
anything but white, his profile would already be treated more harshly and other labels would've been put onto his profile other than just "mental illness"
Calling these people sick seems like a disservice to people with true mental illnesses. It's like some people are just born monsters, or they were shaped to be one by their environment. Either cases, if the kid secured his funding for the weapons, he would have been able to buy them easily. It's mind bending considering that I attend two colleges at this time. What are the chances of a psycho coming in hot to kill as much student as possible next week? or the month after? the year after? It's giving me anxiety to say the least. The recent shootings are just giving people more motive to do these things.
yes, that is another thing that pisses me off. I've suffered from mental illness, I know plenty of good people who unfortunately have mental health problems; NONE of whom are psychotic and would want to harm others at all. So grouping all of them together and simply saying these school shootings/mass shootings are just because of "mental illness" is an insult to us. Fuck that shit, fuck that noise.
Jesus. Catherine Katsel O'Connor is a heroine.
Indeed, she is. She deserves a piece on CNN or another news outlet. Her voice and opinion should be heard; this happened one day before the real tragedy after all, I would want to hear her thoughts about how to further stop these things.
Weaker guns wouldn't stop somebody from going on a rampage.
I also think this is an issue of the value of life. As the perceived value of life decreases, the thoughts of doing harm to others would be more palpable. We've seen what happens in nations where the value of life is zero. Atheism plays a role in this.
This might be the first time I've seen someone get banned in a thread that I created.
I'm very glad that the boy's Grandma read his journal, but I'm wondering what prompted her to do it.
Yes, I was wondering that too. Perhaps she was already noticing some disturbing behavior and decided that snooping really was the best thing to do at that point, necessary. And what do you know, she was painstakingly right.
Since this situation was resolved before it ever escalated I am posting
the live footage of the grandmother interacting with her grandson /s
hahahaha
God. If not for a nosey grandma we could have two massacres in a week.
I think he planned to do it in March, but yeah. If not for her, potentially, more evil could have come to fruition.
Yet, this will get no news time.
Well I actually found out about this story from either CNN or Pix11 news, but yeah. Obviously it doesn't and won't get the attention of what happened in Florida.
