BREAKING: Teen Shooting Suspect Had Contemplated Killings for ‘At Least A Week’ (NM)
The Albuquerque Journal ^ | January 22, 2013 | Jeff Proctor

Bernalillo County Sheriff Dan Houston and one of his top investigators said during a news conference this morning that 15-year-old Nehemiah Griego had been planning violence for “at least a week.”

Investigators are still trying to determine who, if anyone, he told about his plans. Among those detectives are considering as someone who may have known is Griego’s 12-year-old girlfriend.

~~snip~~

Houston said that although he has numerous arrests in his past, it does not appear Greg Griego was a convicted felon.

[Sheriff’s Lt. Sid] Covington said it appears some of the guns owned by Greg Griego — including possibly those used in the killings — had been purchased by Greg Griego’s friends and then either sold or given to the pastor. BCSO is working with the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to trace the history of those guns, as well as the two pistol-grip 12-gauge shotguns that were found in the Griegos’ home ...

Oddly, 100’s of millions of firearms didn’t do anything wrong yesterday.

Ah yes. Here's one of them.

According to ABC radio news, the kid was really into violent video games like Call of Duty etc.

The problem is literally (I'm not exaggerating) EVERY SINGLE 15 year old male in the developed world is into violent video games. Thus every single one that commits a crime will have been into them. Just as every single one that commits a crime will have worn pants. Doesn't mean wearing pants causes violence.

The dead eyes of a psychopath.

Not this nonsense again. You're taking pictures of KNOWN likely psycopaths and "judging" their eyes.

You'd be a complete failure at picking out a psychopath's picture out of 9 othe pictures of non-psychopaths, as long as you didn't know which one was the psycopath beforehand.

S&W, Ruger, and Mossberg (and probably others) make an AR-15 clone that shoots .22 longs. Are we sure these no-nothings aren’t talking about the same weapon, and not two different rifles? Just curious.

Sooooooo cute when they’re sleeping. Oh, wait. That’s kids and puppies. But it doesn’t even look like it’s breathing. Maybe you better check on it and see if it’s okay. I just checked mine and they seem to resting comfortably. I don’t think they can sneak out at night since they are usually locked in a safe in a closet. (Is that gun abuse????) Except the 38 Super in the nightstand. It might be able to sneak out while we’re sleeping.

Molon labe.

Actually, it was Grand Theft Auto. I agree that such games don’t affect all kids. Just the sickos.

He’s of age to be treated as an adult. He’ll probably be kept out of the big boy prison for a couple years but after that he’ll be quite popular behind bars. NM did away with the death penalty in 2009 under that bozo Gov. Bill Richardson.

I don’t think any of these shooters yet had the lawful possession of firearms.

I guess you have self-identified as an irresponsible gun owner.

Have you never heard :

10) Store guns so they are not accessible to unauthorized persons.

Really.

I have used a gun defensibly once in my life. If I had that gun 'properly stored', I would not have been able to get to it in time to brandish it against the criminal who kicked in my door (and then turned tail and ran upon seeing Mr. Mossberg).

My dad never locked up his guns. He taught me how to treat and handle them properly instead.

'Proper' storage of weapons, like all other rights, should be up to the individuals exercising those rights. What is right for one person may not be right for another.

Then it would seem that you are precisely the source of guns
for those who are unable to legally obtain guns will use.

With every G-d given right there is a responsibility.

If you choose to exercise the G-d given Right
then choose to exercise responsibility.

Seriously, kiss my pasty rump. I would have been in the hospital - or worse - if I followed your advice. You are nearly as bad as the gun-grabbers in telling others how to exercise their rights.

Oh, and if I had used a cable lock? A thief could steal my weapon and cut it off and use it. It would render my weapon muchs less functional for home defense - in my personal experience (do you have any?) - but not bother the thief at all.

Now, do you want to also blame car owners for crimes committed when their cars are stolen? Or maybe, just maybe, you could get out of liberal moron mode and put the blame solely on the car thief and his cronies.

Since you don't recognize that your Rights and
corresponding Responsibilities come from G-d,
I guess I'm speaking to a irresponsible anarchist
atheist.

Have a wonderful journey on the wide road of life.
