So, he should have been out of jail by now. Hope he got his head on str8 in the meantime.
Question is, what can we do about ppl like that. There were probably lots of red flags from the Columbine murderers as well - but it is not a crime to write crazy stuff, just doing it. Luckily, he violated firearms laws that were used to keep this danger in a cage for at least a year.
This however was triggered by real or perceived bullying in HS and that is about the only thing we can control. School officials and law enforcement need to take bullying really seriously since Columbine and other tragedies. None of that "let the kids work it out" bullshit we grew up with, no more of the ppl in charge of our kids pretending not to see.
We need to actively curtail the terrorism that some kids have to endure in HS and take the bullies to task. Not suspension or even expulsion but incarceration for assault or battery. Our schools should be a place of learning - not a war zone or torture chamber. After all, the nerds, weaklings and outcasts have shown they do have ways of striking back. That is some serious shit.
