Mother allegedly buys ammunition, tactical gear for son's planned 'mass targeted violence' at middle school: Officials
A mother was arrested and charged for allegedly buying ammunition, tactical gear for her son's planned "mass targeted violence" at his middle school, officials said.
She also found an "improvised explosive device" -- a mortar-style firework wrapped in duct tape -- among the boy's belongings, the affidavit noted. The explosive device had the words "For Brenton Tarrant," referencing the shooter in the 2019 mosque attack, along with multiple "SS" symbols and "14 words" -- referencing white supremacy -- written on it, according to the affidavit.
Ffs, the radical right has entirely too much influence.
Both of these comments having the same votes and only a single downvote is kinda wholesome props for Lemmy.
These positions are not in competition or at odds with eachother, they are both respected in different ways.
On the bright side, I had no idea what that piece of shit's name was until reading your comment, so at least the media has been relatively successful regarding that.
Now to go back to forgetting it.
At least she's remorseful. You can see she's crying.
They cry when they get caught. Up until they get caught it isn’t a problem.
son got tired of the "your mom = big tiddy goth gf" comments
Are the tiddies big?
Pardo had been aware of the threats made by her son, expressed to the school her support of his "violent expressions and drawings" and said she did not feel concerned for his behavior, according to the affidavit.
Oh. Mother of the year award here
Yeah that mugshot tells me most of the story
It's literally just a tattooed girl with dyed hair. You'd be more likely to see someone like her at an antifascist protest or a punk show than planning a neonazi massacre. Ask me to pick between that and a white guy in a polo shirt for which one is more likely to be a threat to society and it'd be the white guy ten times out of ten.
Yeah I was just being snarky, you're absolutely right.
I dunno. I like tattoos a lot and think they can look great on people but these are hella questionable.
Teardrop tattoos, so hot right now
She looks like the women who ran the bakery at the grocery chain I worked for. She also looks like the head of logostics for the third party shipper we use though her hair is Manic-Panic Magenta and Blue .
I dunno, I thought the story was about lady Gaga before reading the headline.
Thank goodness for that grandmother
Poor kid. It’s the mom who should be punished, not him. Obviously, there are ethics considerations but these are the kinds of stories that make me momentarily feel like forced sterilization isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
Having a kid really should require a license. But there is no entity on earth that could be trusted to manage the process of issuing those licenses fairly. So, damned if we do, damned if we don't.
The article said that the kid had stuff with Nazi and white supremacy symbols and words on it. I'm pretty sure he's not innocent in any of this.
He’s in middle school. 13 year olds’ political beliefs don’t typically extend beyond whatever news channel their parents watch, and whatever pipeline YouTube has pushed them down. Could he cause a lot of damage with those political beliefs? Absolutely. But those beliefs didn’t spawn out of the ether. He didn’t just casually stumble upon them. They were put in front of him.
Charged with terrorism for being racist and owning "tactical" gear in Texas?
Seems more like a friendly fire incident tbh.
The cops really didn't feel like standing outside the school for hours doing nothing.
I'm sure she was raised by terrible parents or a terrible system. Nurture/Nature. Some people just need a hug.
We need fully funded, comprehensive health and fully funded education, fully funded social safety nets, as well.
Just share your account info. We'll get right on it!
While her parents may have been terrible people, it sounds as if it was the grandmother who reported it. Could be the grandmother from the fathers side though.
This most definitely seems like the child should have stayed full time at grandmas and not allowed the mother have bail though.
And some people just want to see the world burn.
Okay, so anybody knows what music is playing in the video?
Shazam is giving me wrong tracks only...Thoughts and prayers.
I bet you I can tell you what year she was born.
You go Granny! Fuck those guys
But I thought colored hair = liBeRaL!
She looks nice
😅 1992!!!!
Must be a gang tattoo.
Is this the unavoidable outcome of Juggalos reproducing?
This is the unavoidable outcome of multigenerational, societal failure.
It's quite a hellhole we've made for ourselves here.
Juggalos seem like decent people from everything I've seen.
I don't get the hate, they're just clown furries...
I don't know. Go ask your mom how you turned out.
