Miller asked if there were any weapons in the house.
“There are,” the father replied. “I mean there’s nothing loaded but they are down… We do actually do a lot of shooting. We do a lot of deer hunting. He shot his first deer this year.”
The father went on, “I’m trying to teach him about firearms and safety and how to do it all and get him interested in the outdoors. And get him away from those video games.”
The father showed the investigators a photo on his phone of what he hoped had replaced online gaming for his son.
“The picture on my phone, you see him with blood on his cheeks from shooting his first deer,” the father said. “It was just the greatest day ever.”
The father added, “He knows the seriousness of weapons and what they can do and how to use them and not use them.”
The father said he wanted the investigator to speak directly to Colt about the supposed school shooting threat.
Let me break down for a second what that dumbfuck believed. That man completely fell for the conservative and NRA talking point of blaming games for violence so he gave a kid an assault rifle to get him away from the games and then that kid went on a shooting spree.
People died not just of because of the easy access of that rifle and that kid’s mental state, but because that moron believed it’s violent games fault for those shootings instead of those two things I just mentioned. Two things he could have stepped in to do something about. Throw him behind bars and throw away the key at least for his own sake before he does something even more brain damaged to hurt himself.
