When police arrested a 13-year-old boy in Washington state last week accused of making threats to kill, they found he had “everything ready to go to commit a mass shooting” – including a trove of more than 20 guns in his home.

Thoughts and prayers?
parents need to face some charges too.
It’s. The. Guns. How did a 13 year old have 20 weapons whose only purpose is to kill? Charge their parents with felonies and lock them up. Enough. Implement gun reform now!
🤡
This is the avg armory of your enemy non MAGA americans. Wake up and realize they're already 10 moves in and you don't know you're in the war.
At 13, I couldn't even afford a new chain for my bicycle. Where does a 13 year old get the funds to buy guns??
Another one of those responsible gun owners
How does a 13 year old afford those guns?
Save the money we’d have to spend on his food. Proceed directly to lethal injection.
The parents of the 13-year old boy should be buried in prison. Those people are not fit to raise anything, let alone a child. Who lives with a teenager without noticing 20+ guns? Either they're in on the plot, or they're complete idiots.
i don’t care i’m still more afraid of the people locking children up than i am of children and it’s going to stay that way

This is insane. Where were his parents? How was he raised??
Oh yeah, I forgot it happened in the USA.
This photo could serve as a photo of why America is a deeply disturbed country. No citizen, especially a CHILD, should have access to this weaponry. A musket, maybe. That’s what the framers intended when they enshrined that all citizens have the right to bear arms. Not this. This is fucking sick.
Americans are so stupid to elect a pro-gun fascist racist pedophile...
“Experts on the psychology of school shooters say one of the biggest red flags for future attackers is an unhealthy obsession with past perpetrators.” Certainly don’t need to be an expert to know that!!
Some Americans are so fascinated with their guns, but what fascinates me even more is it’s the people who are fascinated with their guns that I don’t want to have anything to do with. Hunters I get, although I don’t care for it; but theses “My Right to Bear Arms” is strange to me.
This 13 year old is the example of the gun fascination. We need strict gun regulations, longer times for background checks, ban assault rifles, intervention programs for kids struggling, & hold parents accountable. 2nd Amendment was to protect the American settlers homesteads. Not for Mass Murders.
The main problem here is definitely the boys' parents who responded that there's a misunderstanding! Really? 🤦🏻♂️
How does a 13-year old get one gun let alone 20?!
I live in Washington with friends and family that are educators. This is bullshit! The parents should be in jail! The reporting doesn't answer nearly enough questions.
It's somewhat of a paradox that the political movement that has spent decades encouraging the proliferation of firearms, including automatic weapons, now finds itself in a position where it feels it has to bring in the military to 'stem the tide' of gun violence...
No home needs 20 guns. The way people have this fetish with guns is so disgusting. What horrible excuses of parents.
Asking for my grandma, "Baby was he white or colored?" Because, she sure hope he won't colored.
🤡
This is the kind of culture republicans are creating with their anything goes guns policies. A thirteen year old kid with a house full of weapons.
Just wait until a radical Turd Reich group, with the help of the Repugnant Klan, push through legislation fully legalizing fully automatic weapons. Mass shooters will be able to get fully automatic assault rifle to mow down more innocent bystanders. Seriously. This is planned legislation.
Perfectly normal.
Parents? Supervision?
What is it people don't get about amassing that many weapons? When one obsesses over something that is made for destruction to that extent, there comes an inherent desire to use it. But who cares, right? They got what they wanted. It's no longer shocking. We all just fucking shrug it off. We suck.
Cool. Now, maybe y'all can get Scott Jennings to talk more about how it's not the guns that are the problem.🤬
“His mother suggested his social media posts were an attempt to “be cool” among peers, and his father said he had no intention to harm anyone.”
Please consider this worthy cause. This co- worker of mine is close to eviction, despite working full-time, taking care of a special needs child, all while managing to raise a honors student who just graduated high school and was accepted into his dream college. gofund.me/1d869bc6a
No reason for anyone that age to access to one gun, let alone an arsenal.
Which is why I'm convinced that the kid's parents are in on the plot, or they are mentally deranged people who are not qualified to raise any living being, let alone a child.
"Just as the founders intended!" - NRA lobbyists, every damned time.
Who bought him those guns and why aren't his parents in jail?
Damn, at 13 I was trying extend the forks on my Orange Crate bike! WTH does a 13 yo today need with that friggin many weapons? Where's his useless parents? Unless these weapons belong to the adults and not this dingo kid. Hummm....
