Who's Responsible When 6-Year Olds Shoot to Kill?

[Dr. Who]

To me it says everything that is wrong with government and government workers.

1) The kid should have been in a special school. If this was the first week that a parent did not have to attend school with him then the teacher and other students should not have to carry that burden.

2) The administration ignored the problem and instead hoped it would go home and not come back until the next day.
Lazy as crap union workers with no care for anything but how much money they can get out of it. Their negligence allowed this to happen.

3) The parents for their selfishness in trying to push off their kid, regardless of the burden on the system and other kids.

But I have to agree that this kid sounds broken. At 6 years old everything he did sounded premeditated. You have to wonder where the ideas came from.


According to Midcan, this 6 year old is obviously an incel struggling with self esteem look for worship from his internet friends. He is socially alienated, and he can’t get laid.
All from a kid who is still trying to read "See Spot Run" at 6 years old.

Those ideas don't have to come from anywhere in particular. If he watches tv, he might get the notion that guns can be used to attack someone you don't like. A comment from a parent to the effect that they have a gun to protect them from bad people, might be interpreted by a child to mean you shoot anyone who you think is bad or is picking on you.

It doesn't sound like this child suffers from a physical disability, so I'm going to assume its some kind of mental/behavioral disability. The fact that they refer to it as being acute means a sudden onset, sharp rise, and some expectation that it isn't permanent or chronic. That might suggest that the child is suffering from some kind of severe psychological trauma, PTSD or a brain injury that is expected to resolve, given time. It may be he was showing progress and that's why they thought he no longer required the presence of one of his parents. The school was involved in his education plan, so they may even be the ones who advised that the parent's presence was no longer required.

If he is suffering from recent psychological trauma, he may not even qualify for admission to a special school.

I agree that the school's ignoring reports that the child had a gun was manifestly negligent.

We live in a stupid nation when it comes to guns. Oddly they are worshipped by many, and many are insecure men who would not fight but will easily shoot. A reading of the Brady stats below demonstrates the level of stupid unknown before now in human history.

"Fourteen-year-old boys are not part of a well-regulated militia. Members of wacky religious cults are not part of a well-regulated militia. Permitting unregulated citizens to have guns is destroying the security of this free state." Molly Ivins

"The shooter is almost always male. Of the past 129 mass shootings in the United States, all but three have been men. The shooter is socially alienated, and he can’t get laid. Every time you scratch the surface of the latest mass killing, in a movie theatre, a school, the streets of Paris or an abortion clinic, you find the weaponised loser. From Jihadi John of ISIS to Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris at Columbine, these men are invariably stuck in the emotional life of an adolescent. They always struggle with self-esteem – especially regarding women – and sometimes they give up entirely on the possibility of amorous fulfilment. There are different levels of tactical coordination, different ostensible grievances and different access to firearms, but the psyche beneath is invariably the same."
