Patriots receiver Julian Edelman received a post on his instagram account threatening to 'shoot up' his school.

Edelman turned it over to the local authorities who traced it to Michigan. The boy admitted to making the threat and there were two rifles that belonged to his mother found in his home.

Another teen capable of shooting fellow teens.

But its the guns that are the problem, right? Banning all or certain guns are going to stop the psychotic generation that's being raised online and ignored by their parents who are online all day instead of being involved with their kids. Or are victims of bullying....because banning guns will stop school bullying:rolleyes:

Yapping about guns is a band aid and a cop out. The kids coming up today are being raised by the internet and all they see there and need help and guidance and aren't getting it from lazy parents, lazy doctors and a society concerned more with the Kardashians than what's going on in their kids lives. No one wants to even begin to address that.
 
Probably a RWJC in the making. Give him about sixty years.


But the OP is a dump supporter, the irony when he speaks of laziness and violent talk.

OP can go fuck himself.

Lazy parents?
Nope. Parents have given Milenials or Generation Z more time than us Xers were given. I remember that the attitude during my time was pretty much "You're having trouble coping or have poor grades? Pick yourself up, you lazy bastard." Or "If you're bullied, it's your fault."

But there's more bullying now in schools than I remember (either that, or I was oblivious to it). And for some reason, schools seem to be ineffective at dealing with it.

The internet thing is interesting. I can't figure out if the good outweighs the bad or viceversa, for kids in trouble.
 
From the link:
"He was charged with making a false report of a threat of terrorism, a felony that is punishable by up to four years in jail.
The case was sent to the local district attorney’s office and the boy has had one court hearing."


This is bizarre. They obviously decided that he didn't mean to carry it out.
So a kid makes a stupid comment or in his immature mind, a prank and is treated like an adult?

I understand the dilemma, but consider the converse, what if Cruz had been treated as an adult so much earlier?
