At the age of 18 folks are considered to be adults. Parents are not responsible for the damage their adult children inflict on society.

Great idea lets do like North Korea and punish the parents. We will put the whole family in a concentration camp seperate the children fom the parents seperate the parents into different camps. We can let guards rape and molest the females and force the males to do s***e labor. You leftys are really strange people.

We provide armed guards for armored trucks and not for our children, who are required by law to attend government schools? Why do you suppose these sociopaths choose schools? Bexause they know we will not defend our children. To continue to refuse to protect them makes us as sociopathic as the k**lers.

What we need Congress to do is to start investigation the "gun control" lobby. I do not have the evidence for my allegation but my first reaction is to think that "It is incredibly stupid of the desperate left that wants have peace by way of gun confiscation of American citizens to plan these murderous events through a politicized FBI." History yields its messages about how certain parties, N**is and Bolsheviks staged events to disarm a citizenry to take over their country. Our controllers, the "bankers" love to fund these parties.

Ok, I guess holding car manufacturers will be next, right? Hold them responsible when a souless extremist or mentally deranged person jumps in a truck and mows down a crowd at the mall.

Too many of our left leaners just can't see that k*****g in the way you suggest is as bad as shooting crowds of people. It is guns they want outlawed and things like this shooting makes them think that taking our guns will make everybody safe. They can't, or won't, understand that k*****g by any method is just wrong.

You are correct, at age 18, you are given some freedom of being an adult. Like you can v**e, and die for your country, but you cannot drink--that happens at age 21. And in some states you cannot enter a contract until you are at least 21 years old, and in some other states 25. In some states you cannot get a CDL until you reach the age of 24.

Hell in some states you can't even go into an "Adult" shop or buy "Adult" material if you are under the age of 21. Some material you can not buy unless you are 25.

Interesting age is 25, Ben Franklin stated that a man is not wise until he is 30. He pushed to make an age requirement for Representatives to be 25 and Senators to be 30 as a minimum age. Look at being President you have to be at least 35. With JFK being the youngest president at age 40. Not to mention the Supreme Court Justices.

Mostly in this country however, you can be charged as an adult in a court of law after the age of 18.
However, if you go to college after high school you are still a minor until you graduate.....that is age 25

First, I suggest that a minor should be defined as anyone below the age of 25
Second, I suggest that parents and guardians, and adopted parents, should be held responsible for their children up to age 25.
Third, my case is as follows:
-IF Smith and Wesson, Colt, Remington or Winchester can be charged with a crime if their product is used in a mass murder situation, then parents should be charged likewise.

This change in the law would force parents to raise their children right.

Now, I disagree with over zealous CPS agents. Parents should be granted the freedom to raise their children as they see fit. However, I also believe that parents who go too far with their children should be punished as well.

If a manufacturer of a product is held responsible for the injury that product does on the public. So too should Parents be held responsible for their Children.

If a manufacturer creates a product, then it holds true and reasonable that children are created by their parents.

Parents are the first to influence a child from birth. In the Bible, in Proverbs it is written, "Spare the rod, Spoil the child"
There was a 2003 report by the psychological community that supports the ancient writing.

Now spoiling the child, does not make the child a mass murderer. However, if we are to stop these horrible k*****gs of kids to kids, then we must do all we can. And this is one way that society can police themselves and if need be, get the government involved.

Murderers are created, they just don't come into being.
Regardless of what evil is pushing the individual, ie bullying, every person has a breaking point that causes them to lose all sense of rationality.
When this occurs the individual either takes to fight or flight.

In the past a majority of the public would rather take flight then fight. But some will fight.
Henceforth, the phrase "going postal"

This is just my opinion.

Ford, Chevrolet, Chrysler, have been sued over injuring the public.

The topic here is to hold Parents just as responsible.

Are people not getting in cars, vans and trucks and DRIVING THROUGH CROWDS OF PEOPLE! How many people have been murdered in Spain and France again? How many people were k**led on 911 by 19 psychos grabbing two airplanes? We live in a dangerous, fcked up world, I will keep my firearms thank you.

By the way, I would like to remind you, we are welll out matched by the progressive Democrat party's well armed Agencies and Muslim extremist. The AR15 is a lethal weapon but far far from military grade.

YOU ARE SO RIGHT! Then the government also stepped in regarding kids working. Heck when I was growing up my family farmed and we were busy from sunup to sundown (and lots of times before and after). Now you have kids running around saying they're bored and I get so tired of hearing it. We never had time to get bored. Give these kids something to do: mucking manure outta the barn, baling hay, if nothing else send the i******s home and put em in the fields picking the crops. Time to get tough with these kids. We never had an easy life and they shouldn't either.

What tells me a lot, is he was he was 19 years old, and still in High School. (is that a product of the liberal education system now?) Hell, when I was 19 years old I was in South Vietnam on the receiving end of what that putrid reprobate was dishing out in Florida! My heart goes out to the families of the deceased and wounded.

If you ever become a parent it will be your responsibility to raise them in a proper manner.You are expected to raise them loyal to the country they are a citizen of and obey the laws of the nation,or pay the penalty.
