More than a year ago, tips about online posts threatening a school shooting led Georgia police to interview a 13-year-old boy, but investigators didn’t have enough evidence for an arrest. On Wednesday, that boy opened fire at his high school outside Atlanta, killing four people and wounding nine, officials said. The teen has been charged as an adult in the deaths of Apalachee High School students Mason Schermerhorn and Christian Angulo, both 14, and instructors Richard Aspinwall, 39, and Christina Irimie, 53, Georgia Bureau of Investigation Director Chris Hosey said at a news conference.
At least nine other people — eight students and one teacher at the school in Winder, about an hour’s drive northeast of Atlanta — were taken to hospitals with injuries. All were expected to survive, Barrow County Sheriff Jud Smith said.

The FBI had spoken with the kid and father a year ago. No mention of what “hunting rifles” the father had. Were they semiautomatic, bolt or lever action?
Regardless of any of that, how did this evil kid get his hands on the rifle he used in this heinous crime? Did he have the combination to the gun safe, if there was a gun safe?
When my boys were growing up, every one of my firearms had a trigger lock an I was the only one with a key.

As Kids, Living In Michigan, Where Hunting Is A Tradition,
There Were Rifles, Hand Guns, Bows And Other Weapons In About Every Home,
But To The Best Of My Memory There Was Never Any Mass Shooting Of Others Or,
For That Matter Anyone. ... We Were Taught How To Use Them Safely And When
To Use Them For Protection,

At Some Point In Their Life, Kids Know Right From Wrong,
And No Matter What The Parents Say, They Listen To Their Peers,
~ GOT MILK ? ~ Nope ~ I GOT KIDS ~
