I get where you're coming from but in this case these parents were, in my opinion, INCREDIBLY negligent.

1) Knew the kid had issues
2) Bought a gun and gifted it to the kid/didn't store it safely
3) School called parents several times with concerns
4) I believe day of the shooting they asked the parents to take him out of the school and they were like "Yeah, no we're not going to do that."
5) Thought the kids threats were "funny"
6) When they found out their son was responsible they split and tried to hide out

Some of these shooters hide their crazy pretty well but a lot of them there are tons of warning signs. The Parkland School shooter in Florida is another great example of a family that didn't give a crap.

All of these are correct. I don't see it as a stretch that these particular parents were negligent to a level that rises to criminal.

I agree she made some real stupid moves and she was liable but once that domino falls many more will fall. This will not be good in the long run for us.

way didn't they call the cops ??

System Failed ..

The School should be found guilty too then ..

Only applies to white parents.....no minority shooter's parents, can, or will ever be charged, as it is racist.

i believe i heard she was found guilty of failing to protect the other children in the school...........................................

my thinking as wrong as others may see it, she is not responsible for children that are not her own..............................the parents of the other children entrusted their kids to the school for the allotted time prescribed by state education department and local school board agreed requirements,
the state and the local school board/school administration are responsible for the other children

my wife, being a teacher here in cny has the same viewpoint as I do on this issue.................
sounds like the legal system just was looking for more presendents to eventually fuck us all over

If you know your kid is up to no good then there shoud be a level of accountability. What do parents know? If your kids dealing drugs and you actually know something then you should be accountable. If you kid says they're going to rob or assault someone then there is accountability. Proving accountability is another issue. Not a broad brush issue. If your kid does something impulsively stupid then a whole other set of circumstances applies.

As others have said, while there may be some merit here, it is an incredibly dangerous slippery slope.

If nothing else, consider how difficult it actually is to control what your teenager is doing. Oh, you've got a gun safe? And you're the only one with the combo or key? You think you're safe? NOPE.

When my daughter was five - FIVE - we went through the drive-in ATM. As I inserted my card, I heard her voice chirp up from the backseat to tell me my PIN. While I'd never explicitly shielded her eyes from the PIN entry, I'd also never made it particularly visible - and it certainly doesn't display on the screen. She matched my keystrokes to the numbers. WHEN SHE WAS FIVE YEARS OLD.

Oh, you've got a key? Guess what, your teen knows exactly where you keep that key, and exactly when it's not in your pocket.

Oh, you've covered all of those bases? Well, do you ever leave the teen home without supervision? With a shockingly small amount of time, they could break into your safe/cabinet/whatever.

The reality is that if you live with a family member, there's a good chance they know how to access your guns. And if they're actually interested in accessing your guns, there's a 100% chance they know how.

Don't think for a second that NY wouldn't charge you with manslaughter if your kid did something with your guns after circumventing your security practices.

--------------

Or, let's look at it the other way: NY becomes cognizant of the above and passes laws making it illegal to store guns in your house if you have a minor living there. Or requires you to get a safe that can only be opened remotely by verifying your identity to the state police over the phone. Or any number of other, ridiculously stupid and unconstitutional ideas they come up with.

So does this Manslaughter conviction now apply to Hochul and DA's and PA's for the No Bail when they hurt someone else after there free release ..

Will this also be applied to LEOs ... oh he was on are Radar but we didn't do anything .. like the school shooters they knew about before they
shot up a school ...
