attempted suicide in 2019. That’s the same year when he also threatened to kill his family. This kid was a total nutcase.  What does dad do? He co-signs his firearm owner identification card (FOID), which is required in Illinois to own firearms and ammunition. Your son threatens to kill you, and your next move is to co-sign a FOID card. Is anyone home over there?

The suicide and murder threats from 2019 prompted the police to seize Crimo's knives;


Crimo did not own firearms yet.

So, Now Ahmm agoin out on a limb here,, but Ahmm gonna hafta say,, Cops most laklee didn't confiscate the gun he Didn't have..




Authorities added that since Crimo had no FOID card at the time, there was nothing to review. Crimo also had mental health issues dating back to middle school. Illinois is one of the most anti-gun states in the country. They have red flag laws. Nothing that anti-gun liberals are pushing as public policy would

I just remembered that I got corrected earlier, and did not, and still don't, remember that you changed that in your next post.
You asked
Do they keep a better eye on those people?
Maybe that is something they aspire to, but, didn't..
And I still wonder what legal responsibility falls on dad for signing a paper that allowed this kid who had twice demonstrated he was at best unstable, at worst, harboring some serious anger issues that were seething just below the surface, that could flare out of control with the slightest offense.
I know you are not supposed to judge a book by its cover,, but I see a scrawny wimp, who doesn't fit in and resents and is jealous of his more masculine peers. This guy was surely picked on and the butt of jokes.
Whatever he suffered, the problem is, he had too little respect for his fellow man to continue to swallow it and push on, he chose not to work to become a member of the society that he was not fitting into, and punish Them for his failures and inadequacies.
The weakness of character that we've seen in recent years is staggering. Imagine being bullied, OnLine, and committing suicide!! Seriously!? I didn't get bullied online. I got it delivered, in person, regularly..and there was no Off switch. It never even occurred to me to give up. Trust me, society is not kind to a tiny male person. I was still buying my clothes in the boys department in my mid twenties. But I was a roughneck, weighing a whopping 110 pounds. The guys on the rigs didn't act Crappy, because I did the Job,I'm guessing this poor guy had pretty much stopped trying to make himself better and blamed the world for his broken heart. I wonder if he had ever Really done anything. I'm goin with Nope..

Republicans better get crackin' on fixing the mass shooter problem by curing mental health problems.

"UL, DFI, FDS, Socialists,"...

Alphabet salad never gets tired...  

That's my point,... if you think you're gonna' prevent mass shootings with better mental healthcare you're gonna' have to figure out how to deal with these things.

My real point is,... better mental health care is not a practical solution to mass shootings.
Parents think,... "My little Johnny has his problems but he would never do that".
Do Republicans have a plan to intervene in parental decisions?
Kinda' screams "Big Brother"...
