Here’s the thing. I know that the metro areas of Washington vote Democrat. You shouldn’t have to look it up.


But you made yourself look stupid by trying to protect Democrats.


And the possibility of it being a trans kid is just higher now because that’s what’s getting into troubled kids heads these days. It wouldn’t have been a thing 20 years ago.

Why tf does a 13 year have 20 guns?
Who in the right mind as an adult has 20 guns just laying out in the open around their home?
Lock them all up.

I doubt that 13 year old voted Democrat...

23 guns in the house could go either way.

Its dumb to try to turn this into a political talking point but I know some of you cant help it. School shootings happen everywhere in this country, red and blue states/counties.

We need to accept this is a problem we all share rather than pointing fingers and trying to act like its specified to "deranged people that live on the other side of those mountains"

Help me out here. A previous poster said you linked the wrong Pierce County, but now your edited link shows Harris 53.5% v Trump 48.1% in Pierce County, Washington. Did you actually edit your link to the correct state and not even check how they voted? Pull your head out of your arse.

I corrected it in the next post, meant to update that too but guess i hit submit after updating the link. Its 43% right?

Harder to do all this on phone browser.


I just dont know why we cant acknowledge the problem that exists in this country with school shootings and some people have an immediate reaction that it has to be based on the politics of this 13 year old.

Maybe this kid was the next Greta Thornbeerg but if we are going off the average 13 year old it probably had more to do with being lonely from being homeschooled since 2021 and being pissed at the world.

Plus the obvious neglect from their parents because how else does a child that age just have 23 guns laying around without their parents taking action

Owning 23 guns is not a crime.
Not securing the guns is not a crime.

Kid should be locked up for conspiring to commit murder. Give that kid 30 years.

Will have to prove the parents knew about it to charge them with a crime.

Awesome, I lived in San Francisco in the late 90s. That does not make me an expert on current San Francisco.

Are you claiming Portland and Seattle are beacons of great places to live. Would you move you and all your children to live there now?

Im saying they dont have more shootings for being on the other side of the mountains, as you suggested.

There are a lot more shootings in states in the southeast.

So I ask again, as opposed to where?

Jail for life is the only rehab for this kid and his parents should be in cell across so they can all stare at each other for life.

So then an about even mix?

Which tracks. PNW has a weird mix of some real anti-government types that can tend to skew conservative or liberal.

Here's the problem I see. The kid's 13, so any legal action will likely be minimal when all is said and done. He will likely get a slap on the wrist, be made to seek psychiatric help if they can prove he's got some sort or mental condition going on and be out and about in public in short order.

Then, somewhere down the road he's going to explode in a violent rage and take out a bunch of people. And only then, everybody associated with this phase of his life will all be pointing fingers at each other for not recognizing just how dangerous he really was and allowing him to be back in society.


This happens far too often with violent juvenile offenders. They reach 21 and are released from state custody and nothing got fixed while they were being held.

As a country we are pretty terrible at rehabilitation and many want it to stay that way.

We are more focused on punishment than other developed countries.

The problem is always going to be there’s a fine line when predicting behavior that hasn’t happened yet. And determining when someone can’t be fixed.

You're not doing a good job at it. The only thing total mortality rates tell us is that the shooters need more range time.

One of the most egregious cases involving a juvenile offender that immediately comes to mind is that of Edmund Kemper.

At age 15 he shot and killed his grandparents, was sent to a juvenile psychiatric facility and held there until he was 21. He was not a stupid kid by any means and quickly learned to tell the authorities just what they wanted to hear.

After his release, he went to live with his mother against the advice of the Drs. who treated him. She lived in Santa Cruz, CA. and that is where he became known as the "Coed Killer".

Hitchhiking was popular back then and Kemper would pick up girls and some of those wound up his victims and he was particularly brutal in the way he killed them and mutilated their corpses.

He then decided it was time to kill his mother and did so and then had the gall to summon over her best friend, a lady in her late 50's and killed her too. He severed his mother's head, had sex with it, removed her vocal cords and put them through a garbage disposal and put her freshly washed corpse in a closet.

He then left town and stopped at a pay phone out of state to call cops in his hometown to let them know he had killed his mother and her friend and then confessed to the co-ed killings.

Needless to say he's now in prison for the rest of his life, but that's like closing the barn door after the animals have escaped.

Between this and allowing a 13 year old to have access and control of all those guns the parents should be locked up. They had to have helped him get the guns and aren’t just giving him access to go to a shooting range or hunting.
