“...his parents named him William Williams?”
Back in the 50-60’s there was a very famous DJ in NYC named William B Williams
Since this one was captured before the fact, he needs to be waterboarded until he reveals his “thought process”, his “gaming” history, who put the idea into his head, who provided the money for an AK47 semiauto, plus 17 mags with ammo. Employment history? Article says he gave a false address on his NFA application to purchase, had been kicked out by parents and had been living at a “roommate’s” place.

Young men in their late teens and early 20’s. Why?
Wherever they live, whatever their background, what is it about that age range?
It’s like a cumulation of troubles from childhood through the teen years finally reaches the point of no return in that age range.
P.S. (Thank you, grandma, for saving your grandson’s life and so many other lives.)
That’s a waste of time....
Lock him in a deep dark hole forever...
This might get him some small time but doesn't address the underlying problem with his motives and obvious mental illness.
This was an actionable offense but they had to dig to find a crime. Holding up in a hotel/motel room with a rifle and ammo is not a crime in free states.
I think the bigger question is what happens with this guy from this point forward. Unless they can legally determine he is mentally incompetent, which I think can happen, they really can't hold him all that long. I hope they can help the kid but I have my doubts. The cost of keeping him in one of the few mental health hospitals will be astronomic.
Sometimes I think the most humane thing to do is what we do for animals that are clearly mad/insane; put them down and out of their misery. The brain/mind is permanently broken. Nothing good can come from keeping them alive except maybe a paycheck for some poor schmuck who had to tend to him while keeping him loaded up with Thorazine. Too bad our laws don't allow for this kind of thing. Maybe it's time to make new laws. It would sure be one way to get rid of all the dems. (LOL) No doubt they would try to turn it around to do the same to right wingers.
There was a pretty well-known American poet named William Carlos Williams back in the middle of the 20th century.
Grandma actin in loco parentis...
At that age, my dream was to live through a tour in Vietnam...
You would be correct...
When agents searched Williams' hotel room, they found the AK-47 and 17 loaded brmagazines and multiple knives laid out on the bed, Cox said in the release.
well white boys these days are told they’re the scourge of the earth all through school and on cable news so that’s something.
No jobs and it hasn’t really expected of them to get jobs since there were none. There are now but they have no clue what getting a job and work are.
Broken homes, kids labeled as add, adhd, autistic spectrum and put on prescription drugs.
Not allowed to speak truth about lbgtqrst freaks
Pedophilia is a thing now so many of them were probably hit on or worse by older men
TV/Music/movies glorify gangsta life and portrait grotesque violence as being a regular thing. (natural born killers etc)
First Person Shooter games in realistic looking 3D.
Too much screen time instead of reality
Politics is more vitriolic than ever.
The world is going to end soon anyway because - climate change - which of course is the fault of the toxic masculine white men.
and on and on and on
And back in the same time frame there was a very good Cubs outfielder named Billy Williams...which would be this same name.
.... say janetjanet998....
Ironic.
Anyhoo, I fail to see who parents do things like that to their kids.
They are human beings who have to live with the consequences of the parents weird, twisted, or cutesy mentality.
Locking down the criminally insane is fine by me.
Those who care about preserving the 2nd Amendment need to fight back by promoting alternative solutions to gun bans. It’s obvious that untreated and mis-treated insanity, empty idiot lives, lack of empathy for others, playing murder trainer video games obsessively, violent internet propaganda, over-indulgent or MIA parents, etc., have a LOT to do with many of these killing sprees. Liberals who can’t imagine limiting the “right” of maniacs to roam the world and mis-train their minds, have no qualms about destroying an expressed Constitutional right.
Where is Moon Unit Zappa these days?
It was the 50’s. Sure thy worked under their real names unless the names were not “show biz” like Schwatzblatt or Bacciagalupe. In that case they assumed a stage name.
Names were not changed back then out of fear.
Lock him in a deep dark hole forever...
The cane (public), stocks, and reserve the gallows for his next , if any, misdemeanor.
“And back in the same time frame there was a very good Cubs outfielder named Billy Williams.”
I remember Billy. We went to different schools together
