        You neglect to mention that the school found no evidence of bullying whatsoever, or that the shooter had shown signs of extreme violent tendencies on social media for some time leading up to the massacre.

        A US Senator should not be making excuses for a mass murderer.

        If little girls went on shooting rampages every time they were mistreated by boys, we’d have no people left.

        He allowed his son, who he KNEW had been bullied access to his guns? And if not ‘allowed’, failed to keep them adequately secured? HIS SON IS NOT THE VICTIM!!

        Get over it, if the kid didn't have easy access to guns 10 ppl would be alive! Kissing the a$$e$ of the NRA and taking their $$ hand over fist is disgusting and whoever is taking blood money is getting voted OUT!!! Nice try at obfuscation.

        He doesn't know if the kid was bullied, he's only guessing. He has no idea who his kid is, the images he posted on social media nor his infatuation with Nazis. He left his guns unsecured in the home. He's got blame in this too. He raised a murderer and supplied the guns.

        His dad, responsible for his son's access to guns used to commit mass murder, has undoubtedly been advised re his legal exposure in civil suits for wrongful deaths & injuries to his son's victims. So he's slandering dead & live kids, teachers: saying killer "spared the good kids'

        This seems gruesome, even for you. What exactly are you trying to say? To the families of the ten people slain by this ‘good boy?’

        So, if people are mean to someone, that allows them to murder them?! Bullying is not ok, but neither is murder and victim-blaming! So tired of these NRA backed politicians with blood in their hands! DO SOMETHING to get these guns away from people that shouldn't have them!

        The Neo-Nazi kid who sexually harassed a girl was a "good kid"? Well, according to Republicans, I guess he was Presidential.

        I was mistreated at school. I never killed anyone and I founded three successful companies.
