A hard enough life already for those kids.

His “need” was a brain transplant.

Oh that’s so pathetic! Those poor babies! We know they’re with the Lord now, their struggles are over, but Lord comfort their families I pray.

I have a feeling that mother is going to end up in jail for giving her son that gun for his birthday. That seems to be a trend nowadays, especially Oregon.

Strangely enough, Oregon has very lax criminal laws regarding parental involvement in the transfer or use of a firearm by a minor child, in the commission of a crime.

‘special needs’ is a label that brings in billions for the big medical-pharmaceutical-educational-fedschool-welfare complex in leftist run states.

they have every reason to exploit the vulnerable and fallen and keep that money flowing. there’s a lot to this story we don’t know yet. however, thank God and His Foreknowledge in placing an armed, skilled, and courageous Dad in a position to stop that mad, messed up, possibly drugged up kid.

What is the deal with moms giving their crazy kids guns?

This is what happened at Sandy Hook as well.

Do they think it will make up for not having a Dad around?
