Georgia school shooter Colt Gray was bullied by classmates who called him gay, his father told detectives in an interview last year.
Colin Grey, 54, made the claims when he was interviewed by the Jackson County Sheriff's office after the FBI received a tip that his son had threatened a shooting at his middle school.
'It was very difficult for him to go to school and not get picked on,' Colin Gray told an investigator, according to a transcript of the conversation obtained by DailyMail.com.
The father added: 'It went from one thing to another... I was trying to get him on the golf team... [they were like], "Oh, look, Colt's gay. He's dating that guy."
'Just ridiculed him day after day after day.'
Gray, 14, is charged as an adult in the deaths of Mason Schermerhorn and Christian Angulo, both 14, Richard Aspinwall, 39, and Cristina Irimie, 53. Nine people were also hurt in Wednesday’s attack at Apalachee High school in Winder, outside of Atlanta.

Maybe he should not have cultivated such an effeminate appearance?
Back in the days of yore, most of us were bullied at some point or another. It was almost a right of passage. We learned to cope with it and deal with it.
Those who would completely eliminate “bullying” (whatever that is) from school set up those being bullied for a terrible future in which there are no teachers or principals hovering over them to protect them.
Treating anyone else badly in any form is immoral. But expecting to be safeguarded from any and all harassment is delusional and creates perpetual whiners who never learn how to cope with the real world.
>> The kid is not compliant with societal norms
Huh? “Not compliant with societal norms”??!? The kid is mentally ill. In addition to whatever bizarre sexual drive he embraced, he KILLED SEVERAL PEOPLE in cold blood. He is inherently fu___d up beyond excuses that can be made for him.
How did he get that rifle sized weapon into the school?
” It is understandable that their reaction to gay teens would be negative.”
It is a visceral reaction of revulsion.
>> It is a visceral reaction of revulsion.
Yup, and it’s NOT misplaced! Faggotry delenda est. It’s not healthy, nor is it righteous.
Well I had no idea posting this was going to create this much drama.
Someone go get me a beer please.
Well, if he was capable of killing
four strangers then their instincts were right
Boo hoo. They’re only making him somebody’s b@tch in prison.
It was his first day at the new school. I can’t imagine much bullying in a few hours.
JP -you really need to seek professional help….and you need to forgive those who bullied you in school. Truly forgiving them is your only route to healing.
I'm gonna bully you and tell you straight up, you are a twisted sick demented out of touch nutjob to even think that , let alone post such utter twisted thoughts.
You deserved to be bullied. And still do.
When I was in high school, I had NO idea there was such a thing as homosexuality. Of course, I was busy trying to understand my own normal sexuality.
Same through college at the University of Missouri.
I vaguely recall “queer” taunts, but had no idea what it meant,
Then I took a job with a San Francisco company and my new boss had a flaming homo male Secretary! Talk about culture shock! I was stunned, floored. It turned out he was a great guy, did excellent work, provided good support to us field service engineers, and didn’t proselytize being gay. We all got along.
What an education I got, from small city suburban kid to then-conservative mid western college to working with a gay guy in San Francisco!
WAS HE a homosexual?
Or, being the FNG, did the jocks call him “gay” like adolescent males do in the sense of the word meaning “stupid,” “weak,” “not cool”?
Homosexuals may have redefined the word for their own use but word meanings are not static. “Gay” doesn’t just mean homosexual now because the interior decorators and parade zoo sex crowd say it does.
So he was “bullied”. Who wasn’t? So what. Big deal.
Oh, and parenting tip:
if your child is expressing ANY kind of homicidal, suicidal or gender-identity confused ideation at all, do NOT buy him or her a gun; put that money into some psychotherapy for them.
We’ve found the best recourse, is to notify the perpetrator (s), that law firms have been notified, and the organization involved.
Similar to harassment policies at most colleges and universities. Put them on notice and scrutiny.
The notifications can usually be done on free consultations. And this would be more than one law firm.
They need to sweat the badge flash of exposure, judges, and 💲💲. Remember Oberlin.
“How did he get that rifle sized weapon into the school?”
Apparently, we aren’t supposed to ask that question
GAY AND DATING AT 14???? WHAT KIND OF PARENTS LET A KID DO THIS?
If Colt was gay or tranny, you can bet he was sexually molested as young child and probably by a parent who was also sexually molested as a young child. The abused abuse.
Exactly. If everyone doesn’t stop their lives for these mentally ill people, if they don’t lay down the red carpet and celebrate their choices, the mentally ill complain that people are bullying them.
NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR CRAP.
The Viking Kitties have come for that one. He has ridden the lightning. ZOT!
On the subject of handling bullies, we moved midway thru my junior year of high school, so I was the new kid. The class smarta** was bullying me, I suppose you could say. It was annoying.
So one day, I threw money at the problem. In the lunch line, I bought a whole lemon pie topped with whipped cream. Put it in the top of my locker.
The last bell rang for the day, I hustled to my locker, got the pie, and went just outside the doors leading to the student parking lot. Oh yeah, he got a pie in the face.
And people loved it! I got to talk to the vice principal discipline dude, may have even gotten a little detention. But the staff knew this kid for the smarta** he was, and the VP was chuckling inside I’m 99% sure.
