Yeah, I don’t want that to come to pass either.
School resource officers are totally responsible and increase safety, right? Nope. Yet here they go:
they might need them in situations involving 30 - 50 feral students. never know…
… what could possibly go wrong
The man said the guy was unloaded-we all know how accurate that statement can be.
As of Sunday afternoon, no charges have been filed.
Chief Young said the incident remains an ongoing investigation.
He said he plans to visit Conway Middle School Monday to talk to the band and reassure them that everything is fine.
Everything is fine. Threatening a bunch of school kids with a shotgun is fine. “He didn’t actually kill anyone” is not a defense, you idiot. I guess this will be blown off as “stand your ground?”
More like “old man yells at clouds”.
Not sure what that an online course makes sense for something where you need to demonstrate practical ability either.
The informant asked Smith about his “aggressive shooting style,” pointing out his body armor and rapid shooting drills, to which Smith responded that he is preparing for a fight with police and was “dedicated to dying” in the confrontation, the complaint states.
Smith also told the informant he didn’t want his gun taken away again, a likely reference to a 2019 incident in which Smith, then 17, fired an AK-47-style rifle in his grandparents’ home, wounding his grandmother. In a follow-up search warrant, police confiscated the AK-47-style rifle, along with a .22 caliber rifle, a shotgun and 15 fully loaded 7.62 mm magazines.
Smith told the informant his grandmother buys him all of his guns and ammunition since he’s too young to get them himself. He later asked the informant to order him auto sears — attachments that convert guns into fully automatic weapons — for his AR-style rifle and Glock pistol.
The complaint also says Smith told the informant he had thought about joining a neo-Nazi terrorist group called “The Base.” According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, “The Base believes society should be pushed to collapse so a white ethnostate can arise out of the ruins.”
Wait, she still buys these items for him after he shot her?
He probably threatened her with several other guns.
Why does he need body armor if he’s planning to die in his death match with police? What a poser.
It was the style at the time?
Pretty much! He seems infatuated with some image of being a gun-wielding badass. Even though he shot and injured his own grandmother. Who buys him guns. Wtf.
That’s some Turner Diaries shit…
It’s cute that they think they won’t be destroyed in the war.
What’s really scary is that the whole ideology is built to get people to do what this guy claimed to be doing - to die for his cause of bringing about a white ethno-state…
