I'm always conflicted on these. It's a new phenomenon, going after the parents.

After the Orlando nightclub shooting, the Leftists tried going after the guy's ex-wife. She hadn't spoken with him in 3 years, but the Rainbow Brigade wanted revenge and the DA really tried to pin it all on her. That case was utter and complete bullshit, and I'm glad it was tossed almost immediately.

In this case, the parent's should be held responsible, if only for not securing their firearm properly. I don't find that to be anywhere near "anti-gun." If you're too much of a shithead to secure your firearms and they end up being used to cause harm, there should be consequences.

Plot twist: What if the kid bought it on his own with his money from slangin'?

I suppose that is a possibility, yes. 🤣

I'm saying, based on past usage that, even when justified, going after the parents has some antigun motive.

Careful, that precedent can be used to go after burglary victims.

My issue with cases like these is that parental responsibility has turned into a twisted, schizophrenic, Schrodinger's beast of a monster that only applies in certain circumstances, and, for some reason, only benefits one side.

Kid brings a gun to school? Oh, I guess the parents are responsible! Timmy wants to be referred as Timothina? You will be lynched unless you let your little precious turn themselves into a chemically castrated eunch for pedos to abuse.

The parents were probably peices of shit, though, not gonna lie. Doesn't mean I'm not going to place the blame on the kid for being a sub-human retard.
