Mother allegedly buys ammunition, tactical gear for son's planned 'mass targeted violence' at middle school: Officials
You go Granny! Fuck those guys
Nobody:
Americans: GUNS SHOULD BE MANDATORAY!!!!!!!
Poor kid. It’s the mom who should be punished, not him. Obviously, there are ethics considerations but these are the kinds of stories that make me momentarily feel like forced sterilization isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
Having a kid really should require a license. But there is no entity on earth that could be trusted to manage the process of issuing those licenses fairly. So, damned if we do, damned if we don't.
Hell, even if you could find someone to handle it fairly, it would just be a matter of time until someone subverted that organization for their own purposes. If there's power to be wielded, someone will abuse it.
The article said that the kid had stuff with Nazi and white supremacy symbols and words on it. I'm pretty sure he's not innocent in any of this.
He’s in middle school. 13 year olds’ political beliefs don’t typically extend beyond whatever news channel their parents watch, and whatever pipeline YouTube has pushed them down. Could he cause a lot of damage with those political beliefs? Absolutely. But those beliefs didn’t spawn out of the ether. He didn’t just casually stumble upon them. They were put in front of him.
Well, kids learn from thier parents. Unfortunately he was taught to hate. I don't think he is to blame. But of course he can't just go free either.
He's 14. He's about as innocent as every other child. While he should certainly be educated and corrected, allowing a child to fall into that shit is the fault of their guardian.
Do you remember all the stupid shit you thought and believed at 14?
Thoughts and prayers.
Pardo had been aware of the threats made by her son, expressed to the school her support of his "violent expressions and drawings" and said she did not feel concerned for his behavior, according to the affidavit.
Oh. Mother of the year award here
In a sad way she supported her kids dreams more than many parents.
More like supporting his nightmares.
She also found an "improvised explosive device" -- a mortar-style firework wrapped in duct tape -- among the boy's belongings, the affidavit noted. The explosive device had the words "For Brenton Tarrant," referencing the shooter in the 2019 mosque attack, along with multiple "SS" symbols and "14 words" -- referencing white supremacy -- written on it, according to the affidavit.
Ffs, the radical right has entirely too much influence.
Both of these comments having the same votes and only a single downvote is kinda wholesome props for Lemmy.
These positions are not in competition or at odds with eachother, they are both respected in different ways.
On the bright side, I had no idea what that piece of shit's name was until reading your comment, so at least the media has been relatively successful regarding that.
Now to go back to forgetting it.
Loser Nazi fucks only go down the rabbit hole because they're worthless and powerless in real life. They should bunker bust just like their dear leader did in 45'
Or they are, young and easy to manipulate. But yeah just throw em all away, When minors need psychological help ignore them and when theyre down the drain just tell em to off themselves.
You're a disgrace
This is a child. He attended middle school, so he’s at oldest 14. The article makes it sound like he was severely disturbed, he needs psychological care.
Thank goodness for that grandmother
At least she's remorseful. You can see she's crying.
It's always heartwarming to read about supportive parents.
Too many don't get involved with their children's activities at all these days.
oh hey satan
I dunno, I feel like the adult sized surplus tactical gear is just going to get her son teased as he's carrying out his rampage.
If the kid has ambition, you've gotta support that. /s
💀
Okay, so anybody knows what music is playing in the video?
Shazam is giving me wrong tracks only...
Charged with terrorism for being racist and owning "tactical" gear in Texas?
Seems more like a friendly fire incident tbh.
The cops really didn't feel like standing outside the school for hours doing nothing.
Mother of the year.
I bet you I can tell you what year she was born.
Yeah that mugshot tells me most of the story
It's literally just a tattooed girl with dyed hair. You'd be more likely to see someone like her at an antifascist protest or a punk show than planning a neonazi massacre. Ask me to pick between that and a white guy in a polo shirt for which one is more likely to be a threat to society and it'd be the white guy ten times out of ten.
Yeah I was just being snarky, you're absolutely right.
the type of tattoos tell a very, very different story than punk or antifascist….
for example, tear drops tattooed on the face usually mean you’ve killed someone.
the style of tattoo, like Olde English 1992 suggests gangbanger… i wouldn’t expect her to be a nazi but, wouldn’t want to hang out with her at a punk show either.
Teardrop tattoos, so hot right now
I dunno. I like tattoos a lot and think they can look great on people but these are hella questionable.
She looks like the women who ran the bakery at the grocery chain I worked for. She also looks like the head of logostics for the third party shipper we use though her hair is Manic-Panic Magenta and Blue .
Reads headline "Huh?"
Sees picture "Oh."
Edit: oh my god it just keeps getting better.

Somebody forgot to explain to this kid what the 14 words crowd think about Hispanics.
I dunno, I thought the story was about lady Gaga before reading the headline.
I'm sure she was raised by terrible parents or a terrible system. Nurture/Nature. Some people just need a hug.
We need fully funded, comprehensive health and fully funded education, fully funded social safety nets, as well.
Just share your account info. We'll get right on it!
While her parents may have been terrible people, it sounds as if it was the grandmother who reported it. Could be the grandmother from the fathers side though.
This most definitely seems like the child should have stayed full time at grandmas and not allowed the mother have bail though.
And some people just want to see the world burn.
She looks nice
😅 1992!!!!
Must be a gang tattoo.
Is this the unavoidable outcome of Juggalos reproducing?
Juggalos seem like decent people from everything I've seen.
This is the unavoidable outcome of multigenerational, societal failure.
It's quite a hellhole we've made for ourselves here.
I don't know. Go ask your mom how you turned out.
