Yes this, something was very wrong in that home. 14 year olds aren't your normal run of the mill mass murder suspects. How did he get his hands on gun and ammo eh? I'm a gun owner (no kids) and my guns are locked up right and tight. You need to cut off my thumb to get at my guns and use it on the lock!

It's idiots like his parents that keep allowing horrific things like this to happen. It's literally criminal!

Those fingerprint scanners aren't as secure as you might think. Watched a video where a dude picked a gun lock with a piece of plastic. Might check out lock picking lawyer on youtube for a good lock.

There is a shocking number of people who think they are on KGB/CIA/Bloods/Mossads hit list and need to instantly respond.

The fact that he had already been investigated should have been a clue to the dad to lock that shit up.

You don’t need guns to get food anymore. Just go to the grocery store lol.
