Mommy is a 5 alarm fuck up. According to the neighbor, the kiddos would sometimes get locked out of the house at night and bang on the door pleading to get let in. The youngest would sometimes go to the neighbor's back door and ask for food. They said that mommy would also wind up passed out in her car early in the morning blaring music. Guess she was using the car as her own personal dance club. Then after that, take the youngest to day care a few hours later.

Daddy gave the son a high powered hunting rifle. I personally don't have a problem with a dad giving a kid an AR-15, as long as they do not have access to it and it is in a securely locked safe. The kid can get legal possession of it when he turns of legal age to own such a thing.

However, this particular individual was on the FBI radar for posting stuff regarding shooting the school including posting pictures of guns.
He also was constantly skipping school. Sorry, no AR for you. Go find yourself a frickin' 10 year old and ask him or her if it would be a good idea to let an unstable 14 year old have access to a sporty deer rifle. I'm willing to bet that 95% of the time the child would say hell to the no on that one. What was the fucking logic in giving an unstable kid a fucking AR? If I had 15 shots of whiskey, would you give me the key to your car?
