34. Absolutely culpable

He knew of the Red Flags and helped his son get a gun anyway.

All those conservatives/gun fondlers make these kinds of claims - yet they vote for Sheriffs/DA's/Politicians that refuse to enforce gun laws.

They claim the shooter is mentally ill, yet ignore the signs and refuse to fund mental health programs.

It's time to put the blame where it belongs - loudly, unequivocately.
