Jailtime: The shared legacy of the Gray Family.

They’re all guilty of this.

Fuck this guy.

According to CNN the Christmas gift timeline is significant because this was after police had talked to the parents about the kid making online threats to do a school shooting.

They knew and they gave him a gun anyway.

Just to be clear, it’s only the father. The mother didn’t have custody is my understanding.

Devil’s advocate here and please inform me if I’m missing something here, but:

  • If agents visited and could do literally nothing about the kid saying these things, then walked away.
  • And no actual legal restrictions were placed upon the father or son…
  • … How is the father culpable for that which even police could not address?

Doesn’t this mean the law needs changed so that preventative action can occur instead of looking for a scapegoat?

That is: If this was such a red flag on hindsight, then why the fuck wasn’t it a red flag then and why aren’t the police being arrested for homicide?

I agree with holding the parents accountable. If your dog mauls someone you are liable. The son should also be charged, but he didn’t wind up like this in a vacuum.

And at 14 years old, he sure as shit did not stroll into his local gun store and fill out that form 4473. That was his dad’s gun, which his dad provided unsupervised access to.

Which was not a smart fucking move.

Can we go out on a limb and say the father is even being sort of abusive here? I mean… Here’s a very dangerous thing that can cause people to die. Go have fun.

I get it isn’t that simple but… I have a kid. I also have guns. My kid wants to learn to shoot one day.

There’s a big heavy door, and a lock. No way for my kid to access them without me. No access.

There’s criticizing another’s parenting choices, and then there’s abuse and I am starting to think this is abusive.

Investigators believe that Gray received the AR-style gun used in the shooting as a Christmas present from his father, according to sources.
