Texas school shooter Salvador Ramos’ mom speaks out: ‘Forgive me, forgive my son’
NY Post ^ | 5/27/2022 | By Natalie O'Neill and Marjorie Hernandez

The mother of the Texas school shooter who massacred 19 children and two teachers pleaded on Friday for victims to “forgive me, forgive my son.”

Adriana Martinez, the mom of deranged 18-year-old gunman Salvador Ramos, wept in her car as she insisted she had no idea what led her son to snap — though she added that he must have had his “reasons.”

“I have no words to say, I don’t know what he was thinking,” Martinez told the Spanish-language station Televisa.

“He had his reasons for doing what he did. Please don’t judge him. I only want the innocent children who died to forgive me,” she said. “Forgive me, forgive my son. I know he had his reasons.”

Sounds like ‘My son did something’.

This reminds me of two things. First, in Woody Allen’s “Take the Money and Run”, the documentary involves an interview with the parents of the Woody Allen character who is an incorrigible criminal. The parents are both wearing Groucho Marx masks. The mother says”He was a good boy.” The father says “If he was such a good boy, would we be wearing these!”
My dad taught in a high school in East New York (the schoolyard where Henry Hill is parking cars was that school). One of the students gets arrested and my dad has to go to Court. The mother shows up and cries before the judge, who then responds “You’ve been here before and cried before. I don’t want to see you cry again so I’m putting your kid in juvvie until he shapes up.

That might make some sense psychologically. You know the old saying “Even bad men love their mothers.”

What do you do when you also hate your mother more than anyone? Hurt others.

OK, I vaguely remember this movie. Isn’t that the film where Woody Allen tries to hold up hold up guards with a gun made out of soap only to have it evaporate in the rain?

4. Abuse from fellow students

His fellow students say it was just the opposite. See link in #13.

He had his reasons

What she probably means is causes, as in mental problems she thinks are responsible, rather than justifications.

Yes. And also where tries to rob a bank but they can’t read his note. “Give me all the money, I have a gub.”

“He had his reasons for doing what he did. Please don’t judge him. I only want the innocent children who died to forgive me,” she said. “Forgive me, forgive my son. I know he had his reasons.”

What, Dearie? Was he having a bad hair day?

He shot his grandmother! He shot and KILLED 21 people -- 19 fourth grade CHILDREN and 2 teachers!

You don't 'reason' that away.

This qualifies as a “border town.” I expect you’re about right in how it’s going to go. My own sense of humor would be long gone in a similar circumstance and every one who screwed up the deal would be “at risk.” Sometimes you just have to take names. How’s that old line go about “-—Colt made men equal”?

“Actually, there is no possible reason and, yes, he should be judged with extreme prejudice”

God is now in charge of that Dept.

OK, just watched that scene on YouTube. That is funny, especially when they require him to have his hold-up note initialized by the vice president as a matter of policy.😂

Wasn’t she quoted the other day saying “everybody has rage,” as if it’s perfectly normal to go out and murder a bunch of children and teachers you don’t know, simply because you get angry at your grandmother who you also shot.
