Your nitpicking semantics doesn't change the fact he had the car and guns with her blessing. It's very clear from the report.

I don't know what kind of gun that is.... HooptieWagon Nov 2013 #8
It's a handgun modeled after an old Czech military sidearm Recursion Nov 2013 #10
Its a 9mm, which is about .380. HooptieWagon Nov 2013 #13
I was thinking compared to a 45 Recursion Nov 2013 #15
Yes, a .45 is a very powerful handgun. HooptieWagon Nov 2013 #17
OK, a quick google search.... HooptieWagon Nov 2013 #12
Right, but Blue_Tire's point was that his mom bought him gun(s) Recursion Nov 2013 #14
No, its not entirely correct. HooptieWagon Nov 2013 #23
Uh, yes. kcr Nov 2013 #16

Right...so tell me honestly HooptieWagon Nov 2013 #31
She gave him the car and guns. n/t kcr Nov 2013 #34
Why did he kill her then? HooptieWagon Nov 2013 #35
Why are you asking me? n/t kcr Nov 2013 #36
Because you're making the idiotic claim she gave her guns and car to him. HooptieWagon Nov 2013 #37
I'm not making that "idiotic" claim. It says it in the report. kcr Nov 2013 #39
Stupid? That would be putting it mildly. kcr Nov 2013 #40
Well, if she gave him her cars and guns to go shoot up an elementary school.... HooptieWagon Nov 2013 #33
I'm not claiming she gave him guns to commit a shooting. I never made that claim. kcr Nov 2013 #38
