          Can’t see it in the photo, and the video didn’t like to play, guessing you just don’t like her tattoo? I was thinking you were trying to say everyone born in a certain year was damned for some reason lol

              So is everyone from 92’ a shit show? Or should we say that is a disgraceful thing to say all people from a tattoo are terrorists?

                You seem to want to be angry so go ahead. Might I suggest being angry with this white supremacist who was buying ammo for their child to do a school shooting?

                  I said she shouldn’t have been allowed bail and the child should have been moved to her grandmother’s until it was sorted out. But it wasn’t anything about how she looks that mandated my wishes, it was her actions.

      While her parents may have been terrible people, it sounds as if it was the grandmother who reported it. Could be the grandmother from the fathers side though.

      This most definitely seems like the child should have stayed full time at grandmas and not allowed the mother have bail though.

        He’s in middle school. 13 year olds’ political beliefs don’t typically extend beyond whatever news channel their parents watch, and whatever pipeline YouTube has pushed them down. Could he cause a lot of damage with those political beliefs? Absolutely. But those beliefs didn’t spawn out of the ether. He didn’t just casually stumble upon them. They were put in front of him.

        He’s 14. He’s about as innocent as every other child. While he should certainly be educated and corrected, allowing a child to fall into that shit is the fault of their guardian.

        Do you remember all the stupid shit you thought and believed at 14?

          Kids do dumb things and hopefully learn from their mistakes but I dont think actively planning to shoot up a school is one of those things you can argue as innocuous.

          The article doesn’t say whether he originally had these thoughts or if it was pressed onto him by his mother. It definitely sounds like he was at the very least encouraged to do extreme violence by his mother and he said himself that he looked up to other shooters and thought he would be famous.

          The kid needs some mental health counseling at the very least in my opinion.

            I had unfettered internet access and even checked out stormfront and other Nazi communities out of morbid curiosity (it was the 90s – I really didn’t think they’d ever be relevant again), but then I also didn’t have social media, infinite scrolling, or dopamine jacking feeds, so fuck me maybe I just got lucky.

              I mean, if we’re rich we’re as white as we want to be.

              That’s how race works in this country:

              If there’s a chance that you’re secretly wealthy and could ruin the career of a shitty cop, that’s the criteria for being considered white.

      It’s literally just a tattooed girl with dyed hair. You’d be more likely to see someone like her at an antifascist protest or a punk show than planning a neonazi massacre. Ask me to pick between that and a white guy in a polo shirt for which one is more likely to be a threat to society and it’d be the white guy ten times out of ten.

        the type of tattoos tell a very, very different story than punk or antifascist….
        for example, tear drops tattooed on the face usually mean you’ve killed someone.
        the style of tattoo, like Olde English 1992 suggests gangbanger… i wouldn’t expect her to be a nazi but, wouldn’t want to hang out with her at a punk show either.

          You learn that on a true crime podcast or something? It’s a relatively common tattoo (at least relative to face tattoos in general) and can have all kinds of meanings. You haven’t cracked a secret code language.

          The only thing you can read from this photo is she got tattoos on her face, so she probably wasn’t planning to work an office job when she got them.

            awfully defensive, eh?

            it’s not a secret code, bruh:
            https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teardrop_tattoo
            (in can mean other things, but a very crime/gang/prison thing)

            just because you’re not in the culture, doesn’t mean all face tatts are equal, or that you have any idea what you’re talking about.

            and i’m not against face tattoos, i am very against judging people based on their tattoos, and i know the difference between gang tattoos and other subcultures.

            if i were a betting man, which i am, i would put my money on: she’s being railroaded because she has crimey tattoos (most tattoos aren’t related to criminal subcultures, hers are)
            Anything i could glean from those is that she’s NOT the kind of person to support neo-nazi ideology and murder, but probably had a gun or two and ammo…

              LOL. And are you “in the culture” after reading the Wiki page that specifically talks about how they can mean a lot of things and maybe none of them at all? Girls (and guys) get tears for all kinds of reasons, and jumping to “she killed people” or “she’s in a gang”, rather than “she’s experienced loss” or “she’s been abused” is the same level of tattoo pop-symbology that’s labeling every brown man with ink as “MS-13”.
