Missouri middle school shooter’s father faces charges
October 13, 2006Federal charge against father of boy in middle school shooting:
It seems that father of Memorial Middle School shooter Thomas White is in a little bit of trouble over the whole incident. Is it because he basically allowed his son to take a rifle to school? That would make sense but no. It turns out that Gregory Lynn White, 44, was charged with being a felon in possession of a gun. Mr. White has two felony convictions of burglary in Florida and drug possession in California. The elder White is looking at a year in prison.

what a great story to drive home the point about FREAKING GUN LOCKS (not that you mentioned them here…but it cuts open the issue in my mind at least). You can pass em out but you can't put em on (kinda like condoms).
The money would be better spent with interventions for at- risk kids. Don't ask me how…I haven't thought that far… But I KNOW IN MY BONES that this gun issue needs to be attacked about five or six steps BEFORE free gun locks are passed out. Didn't we learn this from HIV and passing out free syringes?
You gotta get those people BEFORE their way of thinking shoos them off the path of normalcy into the high-speed lane of debauchery. If not…..sorry, but most will circle the drain.
'circling the drain' comes from my over 15 years exp. in ICU and trauma nursing. It is when you have done all you could and you can literally see the patient circling down until you cannot see them anymore. You try to grab them out and intervene…but once that whirlpool starts a suckin'….just hold fast and be prepared for the worst.
If you get a save….you are lucky. The rest get to go to the freezer.

ps, sorry for the graphic visuals but it is so freaking true. As a society we need to WAKE THE F&CK UP AND PREVENT THESE THINGS BEFORE THEY ARE ONE SECOND FROM HAPPENING…
…………..or better yet…..in the PROCESS of HAPPENING. (and even better still….the hindsight….where we distribute thousands of free gun locks. The parents that put them on won't have a kid doing this crap. It will most likely be the ones who DO NOT)…
of course MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
quote of the day:
'Out of my mind. Back in five minutes'
Why does everybody have a weapon in the USA? And Becky Wise says right. But how to prevent when the weapons are loaded and into the drawer? How to help when other carefree person destroy all the efforts to transform the poor young wolf into a shy and soft sheep? Harris had assistance of the psychiatrists. They give him Luvox. And look at what cute little wolf Harris became. How to help somebody who realized he lived in a cruel world which (even never) is not always directed by the good people, that we must conform to the ideas of these same people who probably already destroyed the personal self confidence of somebody without very carrying it out. Good luck in your mission of saving the young people in perdition, there's too much poison people with cash and good jobs free in that world. You need to change mind of adults and governments, need to listen people like me in the good way (without hanger or jugement) and maybe one day you will understand ?
With respect,
