Notice how they now hone in on the words, "Semi-automatic" as seen in this article? They are going to keep POUNDING these words until people focus on those types of firearms so they demand they be removed from society. It is a way to get around the fact that pro gun owners have been correcting the term "assault" weapon so they are on to another strategy.
Wow... Based on the article, I'm still confused as to what this kid did, or was going to do. I'm also not convinced as to this being on school grounds.
"in an area behind the high school near the community center."
So was it, or was it not actually on school grounds? Kind of vague here.
"Police found more than 4 grams of a penalty group 2 drug they believed to be hallucinogens."
Believed to be? They don't know what drug it is? How did they know it was a "Penalty Group 2 drug" then? More vagaries.
"They also found an illegal club"
Now clubs are illegal? What about really big flashlights?
Ahh, when everything else isn't enough to make the public want this guy's blood, here comes the ace in the hole:
"where they found an image containing apparent child pornography."
Looks like they hit the trifecta with this one.
Illegal weapons and or weapons in a school zone
Drugs
Kiddy porn
"Whatever we prevented, the outcome was going to be bad."
Sure it was. He was going to murder everyone at the game with only 100 rounds of ammunition. Right!
