GOP's fault!
he really was a left winger...
So once again, the perpetrator is the victim! A perfect case of situation ethics taught by American Feducation!
Sounds like Bruco “War Eagle” Eastwood is an Auburn fan. I am not surprised that he would have a son that did this. :)
They are calling him a “suspect” (who was tackled) and still waiting for witness “identification”.
The law is a ass.
Lee Harvey Oswald was a shooting SUSPECT (and chief suspect in the crime, subsequently investigated).
Jack Ruby was an observed (and captured at scene) perp (gun in hand).
Every time the lamestream media calls these shooters a “suspect” who was tackled (or shot) at the scene, I just HOPE that they shot the RIGHT guy.
Well, we can blame Democrats for the fact that he wasn't locked up longer.
If someone is measurably mentally sick (and determined to be CRIMINALLY ill), that person should not be out unescorted if (s)he is going to be able to plead “not guilty by reason of insanity”. If you aren’t accountable for your actions, then you are not at liberty to travel wherever you’d like with a firearm in your posession. House arrest until your legal guardian is willing to escort you somewhere.
"Unexpected".
White man say.....War Eagle need Legal Eagle!
I heard this guy on the local (Denver) radio this morning. When asked if he could confirm that his son went to Deer Creek, he answered that he didn’t know - that he didn’t know where he went to school then - thought it was somewhere further south, but not sure. He said he is not the person he knew “way back”.
So he wasn’t involved in his son’s life then. Also, if the son had some serious mental illness problems and has been living with the dad for several years, why didn’t the dad intervene? If someone is hearing voices, they need someone who is not mentally ill to step in and help, not let them wander around looking for help by themselves. And, if you know your child is mentally ill, you don’t leave a rifle lying around - you lock it up, best somewhere where son has no idea where it might be.
...and to lock up his thunderstick .
Why couldn’t his father help him get treatment?
I know if I needed help that I couldn’t afford— my family would get it for me... somehow, someway.
I would do the same for my kid.
This family seems to be coppin’ out, if ya ask me.
I don’t blame the family but I don’t feel much pity, either.
So if his father owns a rach why didn’t he help? IMHO parents often choose not to see how dangerous their kids are and don’t like to find blame elsewhere for what their kids do rather than admit they knew something was badly wrong.
OOOPPPSS that should be ranch, “and like to find blame elsewhere”
You might be a Bammer if you say stupid stuff like that.
Do you believe Auburn people go around shooting people? Auburn has nothing to do with this. With names like War Eagle and Strong Eagle, sounds more like Indians Gone Wild In Colorado to me.
At least with that name, we know he wasn’t an illegal alien.
You have no arguement with me on that.
Coffee time?
Geez, shame his employer didn't provide health benefits.
Failing that, it would have helped if was related to some wealthy ranch owner who could help him out with the doctor bills.
Obviously, society failed him.
