So the girl and her friends tried to tell the school he's not stable and the school didnt do the proper* steps necessary to prevent this student from entering the hs...
They actually did. They banned him from the school grounds with a backpack and expelled him. Not much more you can do unless you (like other emotional people after every massacre) want to reduce rights for safety. Which, btw, is counter to the principles this country was founded upon.
I find it hard to believe that neighbors and everyone around him noticed his disturbing behavior and the adoptive parents are clueless. I call Bullshit. Unless they were just collecting checks and neglecting him. Checking your kids social media accounts should be a no brainer. This is disappointing and heart-breaking all around.
I have psycho twins at school and one of them keeps telling me that he loves me keep in mind i am not gay , he keeps making really dark jokes and doesn’t act normal and everyone notices is and whenever he has a fight he fights crazy aggressive and punches even though the other side didnt do anything plus he started calling me everyday at 9 pm to ask my about chemistry and he is still doing this , the only person that noticed how nuts they are is my physics teacher 😕
Those weren’t his adoptive parents, his adoptive parents are both dead. His adoptive dad died when he was young and his adoptive mother died 3 months ago. That couple is his friend’s parents who let him stay there after his adoptive mom died.
First of all he was 19 when he came to stay with them. why would you check a grown man's social media? and that's not even their son so I honestly don't blame them for that. But they dumb ass let a 19 year old with SEVEN guns into their home. Like wtf? What 19 year old has seven guns and doesn't have mental problems.
Bianca -- not really-- he had just lost his mother-- dad dead as well-- so they could have just realized Cruz was heartbroken about this-- and that is not strange at all- Cuz had only been living there for 3 months.. and he was a friend of their son>>....and the guns-- he probably told him they were a family heirloom from his father and he wanted to keep them for memorabilia. -- who ??? would ever think -- this kid is a killer.. == they never really knew him OR heard anything bad about him ---YET>>>>
Because there are hundreds of internet trolls who post stupid comments. As for the Instagram posts brandishing weapons? The NRA would’ve had a field day if he got his guns taken away for that.
Juan Saunders he actually didn’t choose his shitty life. You are equating his shitty life with his murderous action. That is illogical. He did not choose to be born with chemical imbalances in his brain, with a system that could only offer him psychiatric drugs that have really negative side effects, with being bullied, isolated, for his mother dying, etc. Yes, he absolutely chose his decision to kill 17 people. And that will never be justified. But he did not choose his life.
Yes. So let's make guns available for everyone so they can shoot at each other. Way to go America. No other country has this problem because they don't allow guns
UGANDA SCOUT you know what other countries have? Stabbings, bombings, acid attacks, machete gangs, running over people in semi trucks. Nice try though buddy
kolmioman harm comes out of humans regardless of what ever tool of destruction they have. You can’t take that out. Humans will kill humans. You can’t change that
kolmioman but what happens when you take away all the tools and then who’s the only one who has them? The government. I’m not saying that they’d immediately become totalitarian but in time they eventually would. Also the black market exists too so those who commit the violent acts with them usually acquire them illegally and those who purchased them legally and went through the necessary steps are being punished for something they didn’t do while those who don’t deserve to own a gun are still obtaining them and still doing the same stupid shit. It’s a hard topic to solve
Let me get this straight. The foster parents, stated he moves stuff in. They were not aware of his killing animals, abuse to gf, and he purchased multiple weapons per the report? Ok how did he manage to do this in terms of ability to pay for registered guns from retailers? And. How could these people that allowed him into their home not consider this is a young man from a turbulent background, with a gun safe, and apparently he had his own registered firearms, at least they were locked. Keys werent protected, ok...i mean...yes nice boy and these people had to have had some background. No way. They had to have.
There’s this kid at my school who’s super awkward. I tried talking to him once during science when I was super bored. He turned out to be really weird. He would randomly yell out how lonely and depressed he was. Sometimes he would say no one will ever love him. He was saying all this as a joke but I knew that’s how he really felt. He seems nervous and is pretty insecure so yeah. He’s kinda fucked up and I want to help him but he just makes me feel sad. Also wtf can I do?
Donald Sauve have they even said what his motive was? It’s another sandy hook all over again they only just released a video of his interrogation and who knows what they did to him. Probably made him confess to shit he didn’t do
Do people not see the orange tip on that "pistol" on his instagram? I keep seeing people bring that post up. I understand it is still a troubling picture, but people are treating it as if its a real gun, its an airsoft gun
"Because this isn't the person we knew".... exactly... take it from someone who knows the pain, the ones that hurt the most hide it the best. Quit treating every single person like shit when you don't even know who they are, one day you're going to fuck with the wrong person. This shit is so fucked up, and I don't agree with school shootings, but at some point people have to fucking realize we need to start taking serious precautions to mental illness. The ones that are the most silent, think the most in their head, always, always remember that.
doesnt seem to me like he was bullied, actually it sounds like HE was the bully, he fking hit his girlfriend and threatened her family, what a piece of shit
I know I may sound as a soft European, but I simply pose a question: What are automatic weapons doing in the house? It might be normal there, but to me it sounds absolutely absurd to have firearms in the household. And even more when they're not even locked away, evidently. If you wanna protect your property, invest in locks, alarms and a solid insurance. No need for military equipment landing in the hands of mentally unstable people.
Not automatic, its either you people are stupid or you are trying to make a problem sound worse than it really is for stupid ignorant people to believe and agree the firearms are automatic.
truth be getting told Calm down, he's European so they do have a lack of gun knowledge as the common person does not have a gun. What he means is semi-automatic which is one bullet per trigger pull. Semi autos are handguns, civilian assault rifles, and there are even some semi auto shotguns. Automatic weapons for the most part are illegal or have to have specific licensing to own. For example, a variation of a SCAR is fully automatic. Most of automatic weapons can be tested at select gun ranges in a controlled scenario. He had an AR-15, which is semi-automatic. Although, I believe automatic weapons should be barred from selling period. On the contrary, automatic weapons are RIDICULOUSLY expensive. I'm talking about tens of thousands of dollars for ONE weapon. Hopefully my unnecessarily long excerpt will help you understand more about firearms. Misconceptions are often the precursor to misjudgment. Stay informed, Good day.
Ryan Dulac That’s pretty much all guns. Pistols, rifles, some shotguns, snipers, assault rifles. So no, that’s not good. Also we have the 2nd amendment. There are already enough illegal guns and we do not need unarmed citizens facing a criminal(s) with a butcher knife.
An AR-15 isn't an automatic weapon. Also, about 90% of the shootings are with pistols. You liberals make it seem as if the AR-15 is the evil here while the big problem is the parenting and schooling. Guns don't kill people, people kill people with guns.
We are at our lowest of lows in this country and sadly no one politically is doing anything about it, they are just sitting there in their asses grieving I understand it is a terrible thing that had happened but enough is enough, see something, say something, change something is all I have to say. And I want to say to all of those kids who survived and are speaking put about is on national tv, props to you, you are the true definition of a fighter and you have shown everyone that you are fighting for a change in our society and I have to say you are so BRAVE for doing that!
It's a very sad situation on both sides. People we all have our problems and we all deal with it in different ways some do suicides, some drink, some take drugs, so many people are hurting in this world. Let's pray for the families and the young man. Something great spiritual is about to happen in that part of Florida/ in that school or in the life of some one at that school or in that community. This is how the devil works. Lord we pray for these families and friends who have lost their love ones and also this young man, Please bring hope, strength, healing and restoration and let your will be done in jesus Name amen.
I did not say God has any thing to do with this. No where in my comment I said that. Am not saying what this kid has done right. But has a Christian I see things differently and so I share my views.
WTF EVERRR!!! You “parents” should’ve been better caregivers!! Shows how uninvolved you were with him! Even a neighbor saw him torturing animals. If these “parents” said, “oh yes we saw all the signs and did not a damn thing to protect OTHERS that he comes in contact with.” they would go to jail. Of course they’re gonna lie and say ... ohh we saw nooooo signs at allllll... GTFO! You never even tried to see what he was doing online or any of the complaints at school. Bet anything they just kept cashing the checks from the state and that’s why they “took him in”
marypoppens coolaid yes! I agree animal abuse is the first steps until the freak gets the hang of killing, then they move on to killing others. Just like Jeffery dalmer. He did the same stuff. Killings animals constantly then moved on to ppl. What I’m saying is that these ppl who took him in had to of seen signs. There is nooo way they never saw any signs. I really feel they just did nothing to stop his sick & twisted behavior. so they could still continue receiving mthly state checks for him. The kid even made videos about the guns and bragging online that he’s going to be a school shooter. These so called “parents” never did their job. All of these poor innocent ppl were all affected in horrific ways when if the parents would’ve done their job by being the guardian/parents, this would’ve all been prevented. U kno what is also crazy? U can buy cigs at 18, an AK-47 BUT you can’t buy alcohol until you’re 21... AK’s definitely are not for hunting, & he knew what he had planned. U can kill soo many ppl with this but it’s too “dangerous & irresponsible/not mature enough” to be able to buy alcohol. How crazy is that?.
Evelyn Turner he is 19 yrs old and the law states, you have to be 18 yrs or older to buy a long gun and 21 yrs or older to buy a pistol. The system failed us with the background check during the time of purchase.
Hell yeah let's tell more jokes and laugh at him and say fuck morals and lessons hahahah yeah let's do that so the next shooting will happen quicker yaaay bully people yaaay
@@rmn2370 Overall yes, but in this situation no high schooler purchased a gun. Nikolas Cruz was 19 at the time, and therefore legally allowed to own his gun I believe.
DCNOS18 nope like yeah you can get a 7.62x39 rifle with the same design but it’s not a “ak47” I’m sure you know what I’m saying but saigas are 100% legal to purchase and there made in a “Kalashnikov pattern” but there not ak47s there semis and even the full autos are different because that have the slightest millimeters in changes
There needs to be stricter gun restrictions SIMPLE. Everyone knows it but doesnt want to give up there guns. Shame some people value their guns more than anyones lives. Smh
The second amendment fuckface. It is made to defend when the government goes to shit. It was legal. He wasnt diagnosed with any metal illnesses. And as an owner of 4 rifles including an ar15, I know all the laws, which he passed. It's other people, push someone too far, they snap. Also, while you are fighting for gun laws to be taken away, how about we take away cars too since people purposely run other people over with them? And remember its possible to get illegal weapons too.
memethan we are not getting rid of all your guns. So what are YOU complaining about. There is no reason people need assult rifles. There not for hunting and a pistel is good enough for self defense. Thank you for being nasty for me having an opinion. This definitely shows your character and what kind of people support your cause.😁👍
Sophia RederTM Assault Rifles Are fully automatic and full auto weapons are banned in America. You clearly don’t know enough about this topic and it’s useless to argue with you.
Ok.ima attack a home intruder with a kitchen spoon while they have a gun and hope for the best.Obviously ur just another dumb liberal but even if guns were banned, criminals still acquire guns illegally.I mean until y'all dumb liberal peeps get a better idea,just keep ur mouth shut
The real problem is, that over there everybody owns a gun even 19 year olds and not even just a pistol but an AR 🤦🏼♂️ in my country i wouldn‘t even know how to get a weapon and the result is, that we don‘t have school shootings
His girlfriend? Wow! This world is too messed up! I feel like not going to school anymore because of this madness! What has that school done you the gunman? NOTHING! SO WHY WOULD HE DO SOMETHING CRUEL TO THEM!?
Why is no one talking about the Uber driver who drove him to the school while he was CLEARLY carrying a big black gun case? why aren't they bringing that up?
The Poor adoptiv adults. They want to help a child who lost his Parents and Tagen this?!? 😢 I am very sorry for them. So good, warm heartet people who just want to help
it was your guns and you knew this kid had problems you should be the one to pay. the people that were taking care of this kid should be responsible. I understand no average person should carry such type of weapon now your sister in the interview like it's no problem the person caring for this child should be prosecuted
How many times are they gunna say that he Briefly dated u guys don't sound supportive as parents he said he sorry to you guys the parents bounced neglected charges because they gave him what wanted so could I think this Crap is a front anyway so people don't get Noticed spending other pPLS money from the FEDS
He was armed and killed 17 ppl but Eric garner killed no one and seller loose cigarettes but we didn’t get to see him in court cuz he got killed by the police
All we need is teachers to go through a good backround check and proper training to carry a gun in the school and if a school shooter ever broke in they could stop more shots from being fired
