Father of Texas Shooter to Greek Antenna News: My Son Isn’t a Criminal, He’s a Victim
The Pappas Post ^ | May 19, 2018 | Gregory Pappas

Posted on 05/19/2018 11:16:18 PM PDT by Trump20162020

In a sometimes-surreal interview with Greek television news channel Antenna, Antonios Pagourtzis, the father of the accused school shooter in Texas said that his son wasn’t a criminal, but a victim.

His comment came during a telephone interview that the network broadcast on their newscast in Greece.

Pagourtzis denied any responsibility in his son’s murderous rampage that killed ten people in a Texas school, criticizing people who said that there was blood on his guns.

“The guns were clean,” Pagourtzis said in the interview, adding that he as hurt that a lot of the negative press about him was coming from his homeland, Greece.

But the most shocking statement in the interview was when the grieving father stated categorically that his son wasn’t a criminal— but, in fact, a victim. He blamed others who may have “bothered” his son, whom he described as a strong kid.

Not a white Christian cultured shooter. Check around how Greek boys are brought up TODAY. The Sons can do no wrong, the Greek families still have arranged marriages. The Greeks, as a group, intermarry less than the Jews, wife beating is quite common. The boys are unbelievably spoiled and feel women should fall at their feet.

‘Everyone is a victim’ is the same as ‘political correctness’ and is the reason Donald Trump is in the White House. Many voters decided to proxy Donald Trump into the Presidency to get a handle of this leviathan government and its policies that force political correctness into all corners of the country.

Life is not easy and people need to teach their children that at a young age. The more they are coddled and ‘protected’ from the realities of the world, the more likely they will lash out when they finally realize the world is not what they were taught it to be.

I ended up breaking up with my “true love” when she wanted to move out with me to my college out of state. I knew I couldn’t handle that and said no.

I was a wreck. My old man told me “Oh - don’t worry, you’ll be okay, someone else is out there, etc.” (At least he didn’t pass it off with his standard “Girls are like buses - another one will be along.”!)

“Dad - thanks. And I know all that. And I’ll be okay. Just let me be sad for awhile.”

Yeah - I still think about her once in awhile. She married a successful guy and is probably really happy - I hope so. I also know that I married the woman that God knew was right for me.

He is going to be held civilly liable for this.

This father’s comments only prove how out of touch he is with his son who was involved in Antifa. It sounds like he really did not pay intention and was only superficially involved with his son’s life.

Is gunman surviving these events becoming more frequent or am I seeing a pattern from too few incidents?

Hey “Dad”, no amount of bullying justifies murder.

What an azz hole.

You’re son is the world’s biggest pussy and before he arrives death sentence reckoning, he will spend years being used as one.

Oh, and you should pack your bags.

I don’t see your residency or naturalization status remaining intact...

My Dad said the same thing.

I went to the Greek church and it is a leftist cesspool of nonsense.

What is it with Greeks and socialism anyway? My next door neighbor (who is now deceased) was the plant manager of a major Chrysler plant in the metro Detroit area. You would think that he would be conservative as heck but he was just the opposite. Liberal as heck and pro union.......go figure.

Stop with the ‘he is a Christian’

Stop

Believers in Jesus do not murder people

They just don’t

Long courtships. Yep. My wife and I dated for 6 years.


Our courtship lasted about four months - been married 48 years.

Hey Dad -

Why didn't you secure your firearms? Those were your guns he used to murder unarmed, unprotected innocents.

Seem to me that you're guilty of murder as an accessory.

You know, he didn’t even seem to notice his son assembling bombs.
