Still no word on where he got all those guns and magazines from. I know he purchased one gun recently on his birthday, but what about the others? Did he frequent a gun range?
His grandfather didn’t even think he could drive.

mother's boyfriend says

Broken family. Applies to almost every school shooter.

Lets see....

non-existent father - check
mom’s a drug addict - check
mom’s got a live-in boyfriend - check
only social interaction is through social media - check
no supervision - check
dumped on grandmother to raise - check

Even if he didn’t shoot up a school, the chance he was going to wind up in prison was close to 100%

Ramos didn’t want internet access?

Juan Alvarez, 62, who has been in a relationship with Ramos’ mother for about a year and lives with her

I'm sure he was a supportive adult figure for him.

The phrase “mother’s boyfriend” was not something one heard before the 1990s.

Let kids drop out of school when they are 16.

Interesting take here...

The Uvalde school shooter was so poor that as soon as he turned 18, he bought OVER $4K worth of hardware and ammunition on the day he turned 18. His expensive cell phone and a car are also signs of him being poor. Because obviously - don't be racist. Then they somehow buzzed him into the school...

What will it take to get teens like this into residential mental health care? They’re very volatile and adolescent onset mental problems are particularly dangerous.

All of these “kids” have given signs- sometimes unnoticed by their parents in dysfunctional homes, and sometimes aided by co-dependent in-denial parents in apparently functional homes. The Buffalo shooter’s parents bought him his first major weapon when he was 16, even though he was already acting nuts.

Ramos had had police intervention and was considered nutty and avoided by most of his fellow students. So where was the school on this?

I remember when Gov . Reagan closed the leading adolescent mental health care facility in CA because he said it cost too much. It cost nothing compared to the damage done by people who might have been committed l there, couldn’t be, and went on to become killers or to kill themselves . We have to bring back residential mental health care for teens (with all the reviews and safeguards to insure that it is not politically or personally motivated).

This tells me someone gave him the money for the weapons and body armor. He was assisted but by whom?

Sounds like a real healthy environment. /S

I read, elsewhere, that mom is a drug addict. BF looks like he could be, too.

Where’s dad?

🤔

Children are best raised with two fully involved parents - a mother and a father. Not “two mommies” or “two daddies” or any of that nonsense. Especially not a single mother with “live-in” boyfriends.
