3 dead - reported to be students. 6 injured. Just when prices were really starting to come down. Not an AR though.

So once again, seems there was prior warning.

Robin Redding, a parent of a senior at the school, said her son stayed home Tuesday because he heard of threats of a possible shooting there.

At least cops who responded went directly in.

Maybe they don't a POS for a chief who didn't personally edit their ROE for active shooters giving them the OK to sit outside with their thumb up their a$$ while it happened?

We are living in a society in which no one considers standing toe to toe with someone who offended them and fighting with their fists. People immediately go to the gun.

We need to identify what's broken and fix it!

Sadly this is the new normal. Can't handle your shit, shoot up the school. When I was in junior high I had more guns than most adults and definitely went to school with more than a few shitheads. Punk ass pussies are nothing new and there is nothing that is more punk ass pussy than bigger kids that have been held back a couple years ****ing with little kids simply because they can.

You never see them try that shit with someone their own size because they are punk ass pussies. So every 6th to 8th grader in the world has had to put up with somebodies over sized special ed tard because that is simply the way it is. Back then we just figured out how to handle it, sometimes you squared them away by other means on your own time.

But none of us were an even bigger pussy who decided "I'm not happy so I'm gonna shoot up the school."

Don't know what the circumstances were this time around, but safe money is on "he cyber bullied me and I can't handle it" or "I should be in a supervised mental facility but they put me in public school instead."

No matter what the actual story is, results are similar and usually the people who get shot are kids who had nothing to do with the problem in the first place but were simply near by. Rarely do we get lucky enough to have the shitheads shoot other actual shitheads.

Never going to get any details on the shooter since they are a minor. Wonder if this one will be let out on a cash bond and be putting YouTube crap by the morning.

The biggest problem imo isn’t the faces in phones abs such, cause his knows in my teen years I had my head in books, TV, music… just like kids do today.

The issue I have is that we teach and demand dependence. Punish defense and to finish up the triple crown of retard we insure that the system we demand dependence on doesn’t work for squat. You know we have zero tolerance for the kid who bytes a pop tart into a gun, but return the kid who stabbed a teacher with scissors to class the same day.

Kids with an ounce of self respect do t act like imbeciles.

Until "consequences" and "accountability" is taught as a society again. We are fooked.

Let's put it into perspective. As a kid, if I, and I'm sure a bunch of you too, did something wrong and a neighbor or family friend had to come in and bust your ass for it, not only would it happen that one time. Once your Dad found out what you did and the "dishonor" you brought to him and the family, you would surely get your ass busted again...worse even.

Now, idiot parents shield their "little angels" that can do no wrong and claim that it "wasn't their fault" anyway. Pathetic. Parents create the monsters and keep feeding them until they become big monsters that they can no longer deal with and society doesn't want. Consequences need to be taught early and be carried out. Parents should not be their kids "friend", they have friends, they need parents.

Maybe, but I'm not sure about that though. Oxford township is 92% white, 4% Hispanic, 2% Asian, 1% Black, 2% Multi-racial (stats vary a little depending on where you look but all close enough).

Edited again: Found correct data:

11% Hispanic
5% Black
2% Asian

He had been suspended 2 days prior, came in with a deer head placed it on a table in the common area and then started shooting. 2 deputies engaged within 5 minutes of 911 call and he gave up and lawyered up.

Sounds like he was going for popular kids, 1 football players and at least one, possibly 2 cheerleader killed.

3 critical

Something you might find interesting is the pledge was written by a socialist named Francis Bellamy and the salute was the right arm raised like the salute to hitler.

In addition to being a secular propagandist, he masqueraded as a Baptist minister until the congregation caught on to what he was going on about and kicked him to the curb.

Well, my kids won't be shot...

Biden took a lot of justified hits for his empathy over deaths, and especially violent military deaths, because of his experience with Beua. I guess they got ahold of him and he is on strict protocol to not bring him up and try to empathize, just sympathise.

That he bought a gun? Granted, access by a 16yo isn't great, not even legal here in CO, but how many people here have said that they had access to guns as school kids- if not took guns to school to hunt before class?

Handgun, so no AWB implication. Gun control is at its least popular in a generation. And it gave cover to let Dumb and Dumber Cuomo to have Xmas together.

I feel for the parents of the kid who tried to take him out. I know my son would attempt it because of who he is, he thinks he understands guns, and he thinks he invincible.

I used the "?" as I don't have all the facts yet, but what appears clear so far is his kid had serious behavior issues and from what I'm gathering so far, seems like parents that didn't know their kid very well. That as much as anything, seems to a theme among some of these events. These parents told junior not to talk to the police etc. Had I done something a fraction as bad, my mother would have bashed me over the head, tied me up, dumped me on the front yard, and told the po po to remove the garbage from her site. Ok, slight exaggeration, but not that much...

I also had access to firearms in the summer, and one summer I shot out some windows with my bb gun, and it was gone for years, or until I "matured the F up enough to be responsible" as i recall. Another POV also, Brooklyn in the 70s/80s, there was no lack of guns around, but there was also a code where you didn't settle such things with guns, and it was looked down on if you did. The two NYC cops who worked at my high school, which was a tough place, didn't take any guff, and it was your a$$ if you brought a weapon to school and or decided to show them what a tough guy you were. So, crime, beefs, etc tended to happen outside of school, some times just down the block, but rarely in school.

So what we can say as those old enough to remember the fact it is not, nor ever was, about access to guns per se but parenting is, I tend to look to the parents/parenting for answers to such an event first, then their general environment and other supports around them.

My point: There's no way in hell his parents where first alerted to the fact they had seriously f-d up kid unitl this event, yet the kid had access to a recently purchased handgun.

The tool used is obviously not the issue here.

I liked the Sheriff that spoke today. He said that he didn't see any evidence on video of anyone fighting back, we'll see. Lot's of footage it sounds like.

Is the kid 15 or 17?

The shooter didn't knock on a door, that was an undercover LEO- reported by Sheriff.

The previous 'warning' was early Nov, was from out of state, and had nothing to do with this incident. The shooter has no previous disciplinary actions, except for the day before and the day of the shooting. The parents were in for a meeting in the morning (10am?) and the shooting started at 1pm.

bellamy DIED 2 yrs before hitler even rose to power !!!

the salute was from 1892 hitler would have been 3 yrs old ! actually was a military salute then when saying to the flag you raise your hand toward flag :)
they also did change that to over the heart WWII for all because of that hitler thing so maybe hitler copied it ?

why in school
its about loving the country you live in not hating it and some discipline in the class and school
if you hate the pledge you could stand up and just stand there but its about stopping and listening and being quiet and respect etc...

socialist from 120 yrs go is not the same at all ?

Much of Bellamy’s activism was in response to a dramatic increase in U.S. immigration that took place during his lifetime.

Bellamy and other social gospel advocates anticipated that a “well-organized and patriotic public education system” would inculcate newcomers with American ideals and values.

Not to get too far off topic, Hitler, or some early nazi, stole the Roman salute as well as the Eagle standard.

But yeah, the "pledge" is completely socialist. Then sometime in the 50s they added "under god" to make it religiously socialist. Either way they can take that crap walking. You don't have to pledge anything to be a good American, you simply need to respect the Constitution. Those other socialists countries, including Germany's "national socialists", all required some kind of BS pledge.

Yeah, the only reason they would have the pledge today, is so kids could make a point of abstaining from it so they could virtue signal to the world all the evils they think it represents. Ironically if you remove the "under god", it will be damn near the same pledge everyone will be forced to recite if we ever do go full blown socialism. And anyone who abstains will end up in reeducation camps.

It was an emotional reaction, the odds of it happening in front of your eyes are rare and there is the great potential to miss context or not see the whole picture...but bad guys shouldn't be accustomed to thinking just because they decided to stop playing that the game is over. If Adam Lanza was confronted and fell into the fetal position crying, he still should have been shot to pieces. Morally and ethically right.

Never have given a shit about being "insane". If you are that loose mentally you are a danger to society, and locking you away doesn't cut it: the life you have taken is never to be replaced, therefore you forfeit yours.

Remember that crazy bitch in Texas who drowned her FIVE kids, then basically got away with it 'cause she's siiiiick? :cray: Screw that, I'd have had her near-drowned 4 times and revived. Then on #5 she goes under for good.

Tracking how I feel about lives taken in cold blood? I don't mean someone who raped your kid and you cap him as he's released from prison in 20 years. Pre-meditated or not that isn't the kind of case I am referring to. As long as you're damn sure you have the right perp.

Just need a cop willing to shitcan his LE career and face real jail time and we are all set.

While I'm all for decisively engaging an active threat, I don't think you understand the primary purpose of law enforcement. Cops who are not directly engaged don't get to decide "outcome" and I don't think you'd want to live in the country where they were officially encouraged to do so.

Sadly criminals tend to know the rules better than most people, just the way of the world. Shitbags game the system and mostly innocent people aka "first time **** ups" keep trying to explain what happened over and over until they give somebody everything they need to arrest them.

I understand the sentiment in doing bad things to bad people, I can definitely raise some eye brows with a few of my own suggestions. However I think it's probably helpful to LE and potential victims if the shooter is given the opportunity to give up, if or when reality sets in on them. If you face the shooter with imminent death no matter what, then there is no incentive for them to stop shooting, and it's probably of foremost importance to get them to stop shooting.

The parents are being charged too. I have to say, the parents seem more interested in protecting their little monster then they are for getting any justice for his victims, and the kid (per usual) a walking cry for help, and his parents sound like dirt bags. Red flags always go up when they attempt to charge others for thew actions of another person, if the charges as laid out are accurate, it will be interesting to see how that plays out:

Now we know why they have refused to talk to investigators, they knew they'd likely be implicated. Parents of the year for sure.

FromMyColdDeadHand
12-03-21, 12:54
The parents are liable because they didn't check his backpack for the gun, but the school isn't? If his behavior was so threatening and dangerous, why was he released back to general population, and didn't tell the LEOs?

And realize that all of this is just the tip of the iceberg and we the kids all knew way more than is being reported.

Searching of ammunition!!!!

Boy, that DA is really going out of her way to not throw the school admin under the bus.

One drawing and then a school shooting. I'm sure that this everything that is relevant.

So.... she doesn't want kids under 18 going to firing ranges..... right..... she's not anti-gun.

Doesn't anyone talk to their kids anymore?
Yeah, I would check his backpack, but I would want the school to check the damn thing also, if things were this serious, why wasn't anyone paying attention?
This is either way overblown or nobody gave a F'. I'm guessing nobody cared.

The parents are liable because they didn't check his backpack for the gun, but the school isn't? If his behavior was so threatening and dangerous, why was he released back to general population, and didn't tell the LEOs?

And realize that all of this is just the tip of the iceberg and we the kids all knew way more than is being reported.

Searching of ammunition!!!!

Boy, that DA is really going out of her way to not throw the school admin under the bus.

One drawing and then a school shooting. I'm sure that this everything that is relevant.

Oh, I have no doubt the school will get sued too. They aren't exempt. As far as searching for ammo on the net...what's wrong with that? Nothing. The death drawings and notes were the real concern and more than enough to put this thing on full alert status. Parents AND school staff which in turn includes the police. The amount of ball dropping here is mind boggling.

I'll be honest, since I distrust the media immensely, and considering the Rittenhouse prosecution's behavior, I'm not sure I believe they deserve the charge. I come from a family where firearms security and storage is taken lightly, and I still take it pretty lightly; so I'm not very judgmental on that account. The warning signs were there and both the parents and school officials seem to have ignored them.

They kept the gun in their nightstand by their bed.

That prosecutor said that she didn't think that kids with their parents should be able to shoot at firing ranges... I assume she would say the same thing for private land? So kids can't shoot guns before they are 18. Sure, that's workable. Is she going to indict the state for youth hunting programs.

"I'm not anti-gun" is always followed by something that is anti-gun, or so wildly ill-informed about guns as to be laughable.

Four kids dead and seven injured and it seems like every adult was completely brain dead.

If Parkland showed us anything, it showed us no amount of complete failures by everyone involved hardly results in even a loss of jobs. Worse than anything I could have imagined for missed opportunities, incompetency, and fail. However bad you thought it was, it was worse:

I don't even think it's about "Take an interest in his video games." Some people need to just spend some time together as a family.
Teenagers are really not Human yet, They're the subhuman guy slightly behind the guy carrying the spear in the evolutionary chain diagram. You really have to work at a relationship with them because a lot of the "Handrail's" or acceptable social behaviors have now vanished.
I have nothing abolutely nothing in common with my Son but guitar, but man do we play a lot of guitar when we're together. And we talk, we talk about everything.
I think just talking with and being willing to explain things as are in life from the perspective of an adult to a young man kept us tight.
My Son picked up my pay stub one time and asked me aboiut the math, he wanted to know about my 401 K.
So my Sons about to finish his MBA with a concentraition on Accounting, I'm pretty damned proud.

Definitely no video games or firearms if they have the propensity to commit violence without legal or moral justification. Take the kid fishing or bowling.

Not giving any opinion on 'parental responsibility' here or what it should or should not be but ask you to ponder this:

When have you EVER heard of the family / parents of any 'minority' child killer / 'suspected' killer being held accountable (charged with anything related to their childs behavior / actions)???

Well since there are laws in place preventing minors from purchasing guns themselves and it appears the parents really didn't do anything to prevent jr from getting their gun, some one has to pay.

St Louis County just enacted an ordnance charge where people can be ticketed for leaving a firearm in an unlocked vehicle since we have so many legal guns ending up in minors' hands because people can't secure their car or bring their handgun inside at night. Groups of teens 13-16 go steal a car then ride around searching neighborhoods with cars parked outside for unlocked doors. Plenty of security and doorbell camera footage of this. Some of the footage shows them standing guard armed while the other is in the vehicle. Hell they even checked my truck at 340 in the morning but since the door was locked they never even looked inside, just on to the next. But my stupid 26 y/o neighbor girl got her glock stole because she left her's unlocked. Glad I didn't get alerted by my doorbell cause I could be the next mean white racist cop who shot poor jr out getting job applications in people's driveways.

Does sound like they bought the kid the gun and kid was a idiot from idiot parents and nobody wants to have to take a test to get a gun ?

If they can prove the parents knew the kid was a psycho and was for sure on meds for mental issues then OK bring them in as part of it I am fine with

And that's how we end up with laws being passed making it illegal to leave a firearm in a car, forcing "common sense" guns laws on the rest of us because d bags like you neighbor don't have any.

We are living in a society in which no one considers standing toe to toe with someone who offended them and fighting with their fists. People immediately go to the gun.

We need to identify what's broken and fix it!If you spank your child, you go to jail. If you punch an a hole at work, you go to jail. So people figure if they have to go to jail they might as well make it count.
Not being able to discipline kids is where the problem starts.

Problem with the stolen car analogy is most stolen cars are preventable, except early 2000 ford f250s, those you can steal with a flat head screwdriver in the ignition.

Most of our stolen cars are left warming, running in the driveway, running outside a gas station while the idiot driver picks up cigarettes and a huge soda, delivery driver with running car, keys left in unlocked vehicle in driveway or open garage door. Basically a little effort on the victim could have prevented it by taking keys out and locking doors. Very few car jackings now days when you just have to sit outside a gas station and take your pick of vehicles. I often contemplate locking the keys in the car for them so it doesn't get stolen but then I am the bad guy.

I can see why the parents were charged in this incident. Failure To Parent played a significant role in most of the school shootings over the past 25 years.

Unfortunately, when tradition, family responsibility and responsibility to community are no longer taught in the family unit, society has to take over when parents have failed.

If my son had violent tendencies, acted out all too often in school and recently made violent threats which resulted in his suspension from school, I would not purchase a new handgun to reward his bad behavior.

4) School teacher caught him researching ammunition on his phone during class. Ok.
5) Teacher saw a horrible shooting picture and notified the office, who called parents in. Admin had the murderer's bookbag. Parents attended the meeting. School said 48 hours to get counseling.

Michigan requires registration of handguns, here is the law.


MCL 28.422


http://www.legislature.mi.gov/(S(qsebuzou3yv00udwg1ysv2ws))/mileg.aspx?page=GetObject&objectname=mcl-28-422


I could be wrong, so please provide any info you have that contradicts the above MCL.

TIA


ETA:
A "purchase permit or CPL" is required even if you gift the handgun to a family member. That is part of the registration scam.

I know this because one of our neighbors had a 16 year old daughter with a 30 year old guy. They called the cops and that is what they were told.

Police frequently do not know the technical details of the law and are under no obligation to answer you correctly even if they do.

My wife brings up a point: How can you charge the kid as an adult, but charge his parents for allowing a minor to have access to a gun? Is the shooter a minor or an adult???

Greg above puts it most succinctly and clearly. I still don't get how he went from a single drawing to a mass shooter in under 4 hours. Something is missing.

Or commentary from the media has been skewed to get many to believe a particular way.

Reporting 'some' of the facts is not the same as reporting 'all' of the facts...

My read on it is that giving it to their son was fine. As long as they were at home, at the range, or otherwise using it safely under supervision, things were kosher.

Once he left the house with the gun in his backpack, all bets are off but that's him violating the law, not the parents. I don't believe Michigan has a safe storage law.

Further down on your link is this part:

This section does not apply to a person who is younger than the age required under subsection (3)(b) and who possesses a pistol if all of the following conditions apply:
(a) The person is not otherwise prohibited from possessing that pistol.
(b) The person is at a recognized target range.
(c) The person possesses the pistol for the purpose of target practice or instruction in the safe use of a pistol.
(d) The person is in the physical presence and under the direct supervision of any of the following:
(i) The person's parent.
(ii) The person's guardian.

This is a pretty scary path to go down in terms of parental liability.

Doesn't what you added say the gun needs to be in the presence if an adult?

I get the taking the kid to the range etc, everyone does that, but the persin i quoted said MI law allows a kid to own a gun. If the parents leave and go to work, that eliminated the adult being present, doesn't it? And they aren't at a range for instructions or target practice, so b & c are automatically off the table, meaning they don't meet all the following.

My read is that he can "own" the gun. What he can legally do with it outside his home at his age is a different issue. You can own a car without a drivers license. What you can do with said car is a different topic.

As I said if the parents go to work, that makes him be without a parent or guardian present, so it would be illegal, wouldn't it?
This is thinking the minor and gun are at home (with parents at work), we agree he can't take it to school.

Michigan has no safe storage law. In the privacy of their own home, him possessing the firearm isn't illegal.

Saying the boy "owned" the firearm is semantics. Does he legally? I assume not as it's not registered to him and he's not of age to accept transfer, but if dad says this is yours, it's his. Again, what he can or cannot do legally is a different issue.

I "gave" my son my old truck. Legally, it's still mine. I have the pink slip, pay the insurance, etc. When's he's able, we'll legally make it his, but in our house we call it his truck.

It seems like the closest thing would be giving a drink to a drunk that then killed someone- but no one tries to kill someone by drunk driving, usually.

Sounds like a DA wanting to run for a congress seat or something. Make a name for herself, doesn’t understand guns- and hopes others don’t either. We are back to a Kenosha type argument- people are dead so they must be guilty of something.

Ownership is the point I'm trying to get the answer for.

The guy I quoted said a minor can own a firearm, if he is correct then it's the minors gun so the parents have no responsibility.

Missouri has some of the same messed up laws. Minor can't purchase a handgun till 21. Minor can be in possession of a handgun and be legal. Handgun can be gifted to a minor. They find ways to make so many laws that contradict each other that they cancel themselves out or people find ways around them.

Ownership is a moot point if the state does not title or register an object. I could give a newborn child a firearm and say he owns it. It really means nothing.

Looks like horse poo to me.

1) Parents bought gun for 15 year old. BUT... Under Michigan law, that is not illegal.
2) Mom took him to the shooting range. BUT... Under MI law that is favored.
3) Child had total access and the gun was for him. BUT MI la allows a minor to own a handgun, but with exceptions may not carry in public. BUT... He didn't and was not known to until that fateful day.

I checked the Michigan Department of Natural Resources website and found this "A person must be at least 18 years of age to hunt with (possess) a handgun."

What does Michigan law say about a person under the age of 18 possessing a handgun when outside the direct supervision of
parents or guardians?

In my state a person under the age of 18 can only possess a handgun when they are hunting deer during handgun deer season. I am not familiar with the restrictions on handgun possession by a juvenile in Michigan and hope you can clear things up.

Ain't that the truth. A shooting buddy asked me to go to the range with him and meet his grandson. He was trying to connect with the kid and thought taking him to the range and teaching him how to shoot would be a good way of doing that. The plan was to teach the kid how to shoot handguns and rifles.

He told me the kid was a disciplinary problem, he would not listen to his parents or teachers and had a history of making threats and being aggressive with other people at his Junior High School. He also told me the kid didn't always follow grandpa's instructions when he was at the house for a visit. He wanted to try to turn the kid around before he wound up in prison.

I suggested he take the kid bowling or fishing and he did not like that suggestion. I told him there was no way on earth I was going to help him teach the kid to shoot and asked him to let me know when they were going to be at the range, so I could be at least 20 miles from the gun club on that day. After a couple of days, he reached out to me and told me he decided it might not be a good idea to teach his grandson how to shoot.

I've seen responsible parents teach responsible children as young as 8 years old how to shoot, which I think is a fantastic idea. If a kid has a history of being aggressive and threatening people, I think it's a terrible idea. The shooting community needs to police its own.

Again, it get back to semantics. They can tell the boy this is for you, but we know it’s not legal to do that right now. It’s not registered to the boy. Legally, It belongs to the father.

After my son passed his Cub Scout training program for firearms, I got him a Rossi pump action 22 rifle. I told him it was for him. It was obviously not going to belong to him at his age, but it was “his”.

You can say semantics, but it isn't.

Your son doesn't own the truck you referred to because the title isn't in his name. Just because you say its his doesn't mean it is.
If you and your wife die tomorrow and have no will, you saying the truck is his means zero, it will go to probate court to be decided on who gets it like all other assets. If you owe anybody money they could very well end up owning the truck you claim to be your sons.


If the kid actually owned the gun, like you guys claim is legal, then dad wouldn't be in the discussion.

I’ve never said the boy legally owned the gun. I don’t think he can, legally. Possessing it in his own home is a different matter. Once he steps outside and he’s not with an adult, it’s an issue. I don’t think I’ve been unclear on that.

Gotcha.

I think the issue becomes the debate over own versus “own”. Did he really own the gun? No. I don’t think he legally can. Did he “own” the gun because his parents said it was for him? Very likely. Not unusual. Not illegal either. Provided all the other points listed before are followed. Under supervision, at a range, at training, not in public, etc., there is nothing that says he can’t possess it.

The most important part I learned working in the retail gun industry, was that not every gun owner is a friend of mine. Growing up I thought because we shared a common interest we shared a mindset and an attitude about safety. Not the case whatsoever, you can't work on the other side of the counter and not think about who shouldn't be allowed to own guns. These people suck, they probably shouldn't have been able to buy a gun or have a kid. Unfortunately one is heavily restricted and the other has no restrictions whatsoever. They did both, did a poor job with both, and now innocent people are dead.
