The lady (he lived in her house) knew he had just dropped out of school, was emotionally unstable, diagnosed depressed, suicidal, just lost his girlfriend 2 weeks ago, just got fired from his pathetic job, that he felt he was nothing but a worthless piece of shit and didn't want to be a burden to anyone, anymore. This kid was probably exhibiting all of the classic signs of a time bomb, waiting to go off. And to top it off, he was supposedly playing with guns… the night before the killing spree!!

Don't forget, he even showed her the SKS the night before. Did it elicite any reactions of concern? Nope.

I’ve read reports he had felony convictions. If true he had the weapon illegally.

So many warning signs and nobody did anything.

Did it elicit any reactions of concern?

The woman in the family who took him in said it looked too old to work.

I heard on one the the cable news stations he was going to go hunting with her sons ...if it wasn’t his gun & one of her sons were allowing him to use it are they in any trouble?

My jaw dropped when I’d heard that...what the hell was she thinking when she saw it?? Apparently nothing. Just unbelievable.

Next, we are going to see signs all over the Malls saying not to bring in weapons. And how long before some nutcase announces that these poor victims deserved this, for wasting gas driving to the Mall (celebrating the HATED Christmas season, no less) in the first place! Who could have imagined it would ever come to this?

And how long before somehow some lib ties this into being Bush's fault.
