[That’s a rash judgement. What makes you say that this kid was “obviously” troubled? Because he had airsoft replicas and owned a copy of the Anarchist Cookbook?]

Didn’t he threaten a “Columbine” attack on a school? Is that rational in your eyes?

Assuming that he did indeed make such a threat...

I'm not inclined to jump on that bandwagon as of yet. I'm willing to let this unravel a bit further before rendering such a judgement.

It may turn out that:

1. There are no live grenades.
2. "Bomb making plans" is just the Anarchist Cookbook.
3. "Assault rifle" is just a regular 9mm Hi-Point carbine (this one's already established).
4. "Plans to carry out attack" is just the innocent rantings of a bullied kid in a personal diary or somesuch.
5. "Columbine videos" is just a bookmark in Internet Explorer to a youtube video.

I'm just saying...this story could easily be thrown out of proportion by the Nanny police and the all-too-willing Left media. They seem to jump on *any* chance to demonize firearms and to demonize typical boy behavior (making a list of enemies, tinkering with devices, etc).
