Probably old news, but the guns weren't even his. Why would his mom need a Sig sauer Glock and a Bushmaster

To protect herself from her psyco son>?

Or she bought them for him, because he wasn't able to.

Why would it be a question for her to own these guns?

Where in the Constitution does it say anything about "need"?

That's not the point. The guns were his mothers. Do you know any women that own these kinds of guns? Let alone grade school teachers? I wonder if she has any other guns registered, possibly a CCW, any pistols, or just two cannons?

She got them in the divorce.
She got everything in the divorce, just a hunch.

One could assume she was as psycho as he was - just not as violent. Remember, apples don't fall far from the tree.

I like your avitar.

But seriously, why would anyone need a car that is that fast?

What are you trying to outrun?

You don't have to have a qualified "need" to own this or that brand or calibur of gun. If you did, then you wouldn't be a "right".

Maybe she liked guns and went shooting on the weekends. What? A school teacher can't like guns? My mom is a 60+ year old grandmother who sings in the choir at church... and has a .30 carbine that she loves to shoot at the range. She has guns that she "needs" and she has guns that are fun to shoot. Doesn't matter whether she "needs" them or not.

LOL...possibility

Look, I'm pro gun all the way...I'm just sayin, why would a divorced, grade school teacher, with a 20 year old at home, want these types of cannons?

So she could be the master of her boosh.

I have a feeling that this isn't only a grab for guns, but a play for preppers too; those who have stockpiled weapons, or multiple registered firearms are probably going to be targets.

Or maybe I am just paranoid...

Good point OP. Especially a kindergarten school teacher! Something is not right with this story.....

The AR-15 is a very popular weapon. I don't understand why anyone would question a person wanting to own one, no matter their occupation.

The Sig and the shotgun? Same thing.

Why would you think that the FBI would question someone buying guns with kids in the home?

He stole her id just like he stole his brother's id. Somehow someone let him in the school also. He was driving her car. Weird that his dad worked for GE and brother worked for tax firm. Certain radio personalities will have field day with this on Monday!

WTF do you mean "such hi powered guns"?

You obviously don't know one freaking thing about firearms.

On the power scale, they are very much on the low end.
They just sound frightening to you. You are scared of words because you don't know what they mean they just sound scary to you.

Well, it was a high-powered enough, low-end gun to kill 27 people in a very short period of time. That's frightening enough for me, not for you?

Everybody should get a single shot Cooey and 50 short-rifle shells, rehab before you get a 2nd box.

Just make civilian rounds out of rock-salt. Worst damage you do is make him cry, and dance, and cry some more.

I think the OP is asking the question :

Did the kid get the weapons from an illegal source (street trade) or were they his parents weapons?

Of course I may be mis-reading the OP's question too

Ummm, those are hardly cannons.

The Bushie AR-15, or any AR15, is pretty much the perfect rifle for any woman to own and shoot. They are lightweight, customizable to fit any sized shooter, and fire a low powered, very low recoil projectile.

The Glock and Sig are just decent quality, middle caliber pistols, much like I'd expect any female shooter to own.

And a passenger commercial jet in the hands of a madman can kill thousands of people in the same time frame.

Frightening? Yes, but not frightened about the jet. Frightened about the madman.

Well obviously he wasn't able to obtain these guns legally. So why did his mother get them for him? I guarantee you, these were purchased for him, not herself. What mother in her right mind would purchase these types of weapons knowing there is a person in the house that couldn't.

Nope, guns don't frighten me. People who kill do. They should just ban the killing and the nice criminals would be sure to obey the law.

I'm starting to believe he could impersonate his mother. That's how he got into a locked school and how he bought the guns. Just like Psycho the movie. He had mommy problems. Killed her friends and kids at the school. Or total psyop!

Well my dad bought me my first rifle when I was 8 years old.

I never killed anybody with it.

Was that wrong of him to do?

Are you just trying to be stupid or what? How the fuck they gonna know what baggage a person has based on a ssn? Not that it would have any bearing on whether a person has a right to own a gun. You could be the mother of 20 retarded psychopaths and there ain't a damn thing to stop her from buying a .50 cal barret for each of them and a can of ammo to boot! Life is what it has become due to a strainer of allowances so other things could grow. Freedom rules!!!

Impossible to impersonate his mother to get the guns. That is absurd.

Somewhere along the line SHE failed to keep these guns out of his hands and locked up. Allowing your mentally disturbed yet high-IQ retard son access to your weapons cache = major fail.

Along the chain of command, somebody fucked up. Somebody didn't see the warning signs or failed to pay attention to them.

Another rumor in Connecticut is he was dressed like a nun. That's how he got in the locked school. Just throwing that out there.

guns grow on apple trees.

Why did the mother have those guns?

My guess is there is no greater love then codependency...

Of course she purchased them for him. Just like the mother's who go by drugs for their kids so they don't get dope sick.
