If this is true we're talking about a child who just turned 15.  Why the F would you have a gun lying around and easily accessible to her within your house?  It's ridiculous even if she  wasn't disturbed.  I believe the dad in Highland Park was prosecuted?  Really upsetting if these accounts are accurate.

And Michigan, and so on, and so on. And nothing changes because they don't want it to.

Who is "they"?  Are you advocating a blanket gun ban?

Let's stop whining and complaining over dead kids.

Enjoy your guns. They are a gift from the gods.

Jesus would be in favor of guns

Well, except for nail guns.

I think he'd be in favor of nail guns.  As an evangelical Christian, I haven't read the Bible but I'm quite sure Jesus said an eye for an eye.

You do realize that probably 15-20% of 15-year olds in Wisconsin have ready access to guns? Wisconsin is a hunting state. Most of my friends had access to guns their entire life.

I had a friend in middle school who was shot by another friend as they looked at his shotgun.  Luckily, he survived but was no longer able to play sports.

I guess as much as a 15 year old can be a "far right neo-nazi."

My guess is that there were significant mental health issues as well. That, combined with access to guns, is never a good combination.

That's fair.

I should have said it better.

She was deep into the world of the far right neonazi thought.

Probably many variables led to that - home life, social life, covid lockdowns, etc

I'm married but you'll probably never meet her, she goes to a different basketball fan site.

It's my constitutional right that it's too much trouble for me to put my gun in a secure locker. When I'm drunk and want to clean it with the safety off I can't figure out the combination.

she also (allegedly) quoted the Unabomber's manifesto in hers. This is the second high profile killer in a few weeks who took inspiration from his deranged ramblings. Is there a disturbing resurgence of public interest in the Unabomber I don't know about?

Something to confess?

[mu_hilltopper]

Reminds me when I was maybe 10 years old, circa 1979 .. I befriended a classmate because he had an Atari in his basement.

He was not a natural friend, but Pong was really cool.  In any event at some point I'm ponging it up, and I hear a click.  He'd taken his dad's gun and 'jokingly' pulled the trigger at my head.

I think I said "quit it, you'll mess up my game" and went back to the Atari.
