Sorry, learned that OP is a lie. Where did they get this fake news? Nt raccoon Feb 2018 #120

Why are you posting these lies? oberliner Feb 2018 #111

I'm curious as to how gun friendly the dad was. joshcryer Feb 2018 #15

Yep. Daddy, like so many gunners, probably introduced his kid Hoyt Feb 2018 #29

These types are scary. I grew up on a big ranch Drahthaardogs Feb 2018 #39

Same here gay texan Feb 2018 #44

That's proper use of guns, and I don't have a problem with that. My granddad had a farm too. Hoyt Feb 2018 #55

It's the attitude. Drahthaardogs Feb 2018 #58

Ive never had a picture of myself holding my gun. GWC58 Feb 2018 #67

Not true oberliner Feb 2018 #112

What's not true? Hoyt Feb 2018 #117

Both his parents are dead. The father has been dead for years . He bought the gun @ age 18 lunasun Feb 2018 #98

His father, or adoptive father, was alive at the age most gunner dads indoctrinate their kids Hoyt Feb 2018 #119

I was just thinking Nevernose Feb 2018 #122

You don't know that. His father died when he was 4. But he's living in a state pnwmom Feb 2018 #132

His adoptive father was into guns and was OK with his attraction Hoyt Feb 2018 #134

Where is your evidence of that? His adoptive father died when he was four, pnwmom Feb 2018 #135

I can't imagine the grief. WhiskeyGrinder Feb 2018 #3

apparently the kids in the school knew he would do something like this. Egnever Feb 2018 #5

Fuck him. He raised that monster and/or neglected the downward spiral his son was in. LonePirate Feb 2018 #6

There is proof of this or you just making up stuff? n/t USALiberal Feb 2018 #13

He either promoted his son's gun obsession or he ignored it. He's a horrible father regardless. LonePirate Feb 2018 #17

You have no fucking idea yet. Wow, love the lynch mod mentality here. n/t USALiberal Feb 2018 #18

It's obvious that the poster is expressing his/her opinion about the father... TheDebbieDee Feb 2018 #35

How adorable! nt USALiberal Feb 2018 #40

I think you need to look at the difference between offering an opinion and making up facts. Blecht Feb 2018 #131

It's really mob lies not just the OP but replies . Dad died yrs ago & killer bought the gun @ 18 lunasun Feb 2018 #103

You don't know anything... Baconator Feb 2018 #45

If every relative today's victims doesn't agree that bad parenting existed here, then I will retract LonePirate Feb 2018 #52

Sometimes good parents have a bad kid Drahthaardogs Feb 2018 #57

As the sister of a murderer, Ms. Toad Feb 2018 #21

Did you brother actively and repeatedly display an unhealthy obsession with guns? LonePirate Feb 2018 #22

Do you know whether the parent was aware of the things you are alleging? Ms. Toad Feb 2018 #26

The parent either tolerated the gun obsession or ignored it (knowingly or unknowingly). LonePirate Feb 2018 #31

Parenting sucks. You do the best you can, or maybe you dont; no one helps and everyone judges. lostnfound Feb 2018 #33

You have no idea what you're talking about. procon Feb 2018 #34

As a society, we need to stop giving a pass to bad parents like those of the shooter. LonePirate Feb 2018 #43

You're living just telling a make believe story. procon Feb 2018 #64

By all means, share whatever you can about how the parents did everything they could to stop him. LonePirate Feb 2018 #70

OK, here; my opinion is more valid because you're just making up procon Feb 2018 #84

Please link to ANYTHING that proves anything you said! nt USALiberal Feb 2018 #41

I threw out every hypothetical that came to mind. Did I miss one that's on your mind? LonePirate Feb 2018 #47

So you are just making up shit. I get it now. nt USALiberal Feb 2018 #49

You cannot judge whether someone was a bad parent Ms. Toad Feb 2018 #51

I damn well am going to judge the parent of any kid who shoots up his school. LonePirate Feb 2018 #54

Wow, you scare me more. n.t USALiberal Feb 2018 #66

I hope you never have a child who disappoints you, Ms. Toad Feb 2018 #69

Their best efforts resulted in 17 dead people today. How is that not a failure at parenting? LonePirate Feb 2018 #72

Sympathy is not a limited commodity Ms. Toad Feb 2018 #82

And what if the parents of those victims have other children with mental health issues? procon Feb 2018 #86

If their kid(s) shoot up a school and kill 17 people, then yes, they would be bad parents also. LonePirate Feb 2018 #88

So which parents failed? Ms. Toad Feb 2018 #96

You aren't going to make this person understand. sarah FAILIN Feb 2018 #77

You're correct. Ms. Toad Feb 2018 #87
