A what age do you become accountable for your actions? At what age can you stop (or should stop) blaming your parents for your failures or your poor decisions?

The man arrested in connection with the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk is in the electrical apprenticeship program at Dixie Technical College.

Barely out of home.

Isn't AZ tied to CA regarding gas pricing-so this tracks. Info might be outdated but I thought AZ lacks refinement and is reliant in CA (and its policies) pass through ?

He's an adult and isn't in school. You're hypocritical because you blame his crimes on his upbringing but not inner city youth. You can't have it both ways.

I will try to remember that when I am talking to esteemed forum posters.

Unreal right wing hypocrisy. Constantly blame parents for whatever kids do at schools but in this case....not one bit. Parents did a great job. You can't make up this level of hypocrisy.

That's bad. Not CA bad but bad. It's $2.85 here in KS.

Do static guns emit violent radioactive brain signals via osmosis? I am trying to follow the logic here? I've lived in decent sized towns with more guns than people and virtually 0 violent crime so I am wondering how gun exposure works?

Why do you blame his crime on his upbringing then? Aren't you always the one that is bringing up hypocrisy? Do you ever self reflect?

Was on his way to be a 3 time champ and 4 time AA but they nerfed him by changing the rules. Missed out on his 3rd natty by barely losing to Yianni. Then lost the chance to be a 4 time AA by getting pinned by Chad Red.

Yah, I'm sure that constantly being around guns his entire childhood had zero contribution, lmfao.

OK. Thank you for your candor.

You might need a little more data before you can blame his upbringing for his behavior. He was a grown man. 22 years old. He had to make a lot of very poor decisions over time to end up where he ended up. His parents surely didn't make those decisions. It's called personal accountability. At 22 you and you alone are accountable for your behavior.

Muslim is a race?

Philosophically what would be more likely to influence someone to commit this act? A family background rooted in faith (in anything), community and service, lawfulness, and achievement. Or A group who burns buildings, creates no law zones, incites violence and riots weekly, lives online in a bubble of demonization and violent rhetoric and labels anyone with a different opinion as evil?

I blame their entire disadvantaged background. Yes, that includes often not having a dad, but many other disadvantages too. I don't blame kids for their sometimes crappy upbringing.

Were your parents also full of crap and lived in a fantasy world where they convinced themselves they are the hardest working person and the most intelligent person alive 110%? But in reality they sit on an anonymous message board 90% of the day every day because they can't get their rocks off otherwise? Do you also blame inner city kids for not having parent's in their lives when they commit horrendous acts? No you don't so do us all a favor and cut the BS for once.

Yes, and I'm sure his upbringing had nothing to do with how he turned out.

Thank you for providing a real world example of excuse making to prove my point. Appreciated. (Sorry figuring out how to quote add. That was a thanks to RV)

You left out a few things. He was very sick mentally deranged individual. He was full of hate. He had been radicalized into a monster. He was a left winger that ate up all the garbage the left could feed him.

Seeing all the hypocrisy, dishonesty, bigotry and love of violence in his family undoubtedly fueled the fire. I'd be angry if I grew up like that. Unfortunately, he handled it poorly. I've said it many times. Watch out for all extreme Christians or people w these backgrounds.

Excellent. You hit the nail on the head I'm waiting for RV's rebuttal.

I don’t think he was really super racist against blacks. Muslims, yes.
