Not a fan of this verdict... What’s next? I buy a son or daughter a car, they get in an accident because they drive bad and kill some one now it’s my fault?
The guilty party is the kid, bad parenting is bad parenting but the kid pulled the trigger.
When the police tell you your son has made certain threats to other students and the school, you don’t go out and buy your son a rifle. If you do, you deserve to spend 20 years in prison with your murdering son.
I am not a fan either. If there could be any type of charge, it needs to be something along the lines of “purchasing a weapon for a minor who went on to murder others with said weapon”. If tue parent encourages the deadly behavior, then specify that, or fo after them on inciting murder or conspirscy type charges. It needs to be specific to what a parent actually did or didnt do, not what the kid did. What the minor child does is their own responsibility.
I agree. Parents shouldn’t not spend time for murder, when he didn’t know the son was going to do it.
He ignored the warning signs.

A better analogy is you buy your kid a car knowing they plan to run over people in it. So yeah. It’s your fault.
I agree. From what I’ve seen I wouldn’t have convicted him of murder.
You are correct. As far as them cheering on the verdict, wait until it is their turn in the barrel, then they will sing a different tune.
In your first paragraph, if your son or daughter gets a speeding ticket or parking ticket they are coming after you too.
But idiots never learn. When they come after them for something someone else done, you will see the tears start flowing.
What is next is, it, over time will expand to cover , over time just about, if not, everything.
