[QUOTE="JonDough, post: 2359899, member: 24427"] Yet the President, his administration and all the other gun grabbers made it about the "evil weapons". And they touted the '"poor victem mother"...well i'm sorry, but i call it like i see it. the MOM had many many chances to get things in line and didn't. She let her kid lock himself away and took no initiative into finding out what was going on. She was probably scared of him, but that makes it even more terrible that she did nothing to change the situation. JUST LIKE the Columbine deal........if MY kid was making bombs in his bedtroom I WOULD HAVE KNOWN ABOUT IT!!!! Parents need to nut up and start watching what their kids are doing and quit being so mamby pamby and respecting their privacy so damn much. Yes, kids have a right to some privacy, but WE are their parents...it's our damned job to look and see what they are doing and guide them through life when we see something wrong. Sheeeez. It's our jobs to make sure they know what is right and wrong....good and bad...acceptable and not acceptable. DON'T just leave them to their own devices and let them live in fantasy land where they make up their own rules and their own societies. Especially now in the computer age....they get with others of like mind and create their own social structures and then feed on each others angst etc..... I'm not for just throwing people away, willy nilly...FAR from it, but throughout history, there have been people that just need to be locked away for the safety of EVERYONE. We need to start locking lunatics up in some form to keep them from going off on society. I know that's a slippery slope with it's own inherant downfalls and shortcomings....but DAMN. "Oh yeah, he's a nutcase....let him be" just isn't getting it!!! Sorry folks......didn't mean to throw out a rant-a-thon. Peace [/QUOTE]
