| You have a point, I am going by what's in the media but I assume they are accurate, sometimes. They showed a picture of the house he grew up in and I took it for granted, it must be the house but they could be mistaken. They have been mistaken before. And the media will do anything for a hype ........ |

| You could be considered richer than some . Based on the evidence I have seen so far, the guy is a spoiled rich kid who grew up privileged and cannot deal with the challenges of life outside his community in California. He did fine while he was there but as soon as he was placed in a different locat... |

| Richer than people who can't afford to go to college or buy guns. The neighborhood he grew up in is described as "upscale." He spent a lot of money on guns, ammo, gas canisters and body armor, including a gas mask. Two of the guns alone cost over $1500. So only rich people can go to college???? (sc... |

| Where did he get the cash for such an arsenal is what am wondering ? and how the regulations concerning each weapon was handled. That's why I think he is a spoiled rich kid. He had so much extra money to spend on all this stuff. Guns and ballistic armory. He probably got the money from his college ... |

Why would you need this info??
Political affiliation has NOTHING to do with this incident. |

| Honestly, from what it looks like, he is simply a spoiled rich kid. His mother is asking for privacy she issued a statement. Its not about the victims and what they have endured, it's making sure her and her relatives are not shown on television, their names are not released, and information is not... |

| My son would whine about doing his homework up until 3rd grade. I made a checklist for him. It was the same every day. He could do whatever he wanted for one hour after school. Then homework.

In case you are wondering, my brother is completely neurotypical (poor guy), so I dont think this is anything AS related.
