OK gun enthusiasts: Woman from Florida buys gun. Goes to COLORADO to celebrate school shootings. All schools closing in Colorado. GOOD?

Yeah.  This is what we are now faced with.

We sell guns to anyone and now anyone is closing schools and killing kids if they GO to school.

    Can't seem to get a straight story on it.
    She allegedly issued "credible threats" ... but nobody provides details of what those threats were.
    And one of the school districts stated in a tweet that it was a "non specific threat".
    Nor details about when the threats were issued (before or after purchasing the firearm).
    There was a BOLO issued ... but that stated there was no probable cause to arrest her.
    Though it did say "If contacted detain and evaluate mental health status then contact Det. Gilbert immediately."


    But no, we don't sell guns to anyone.
    Since she wasn't a felon or "adjudicated" with mental issues ... she could legally buy a firearm.

    : Your last sentence. OH. Okay.  That makes it okay then.  OBVIOUSLY NOT.  She may just be a loony.  But this is how we must now spend our time.  Searching for "harmless people" who want to buy a gun.  We should not be selling GUNS this way. So easily.  SO easy to get that a looney or your next-door-neighbor can take the wrong meds one day and kill everyone in sight.

    April 16 (UPI) -- Authorities in Colorado conducted a "massive manhunt" for an armed woman in connection with threats that led to lockouts at dozens of schools in the state on Tuesday, including Columbine High School, the site of a mass shooting nearly two decades ago.

    FBI Denver and the Jefferson County Sheriff sought help from the public in obtaining information regarding Sol Pais, 18, a woman who traveled to Colorado from Miami, made threats and was considered to be "extremely dangerous."

     "She is a white female, 18 years old, approximately 5'5" in height with brown hair. She was last seen wearing a black T-shirt, camouflage pants and black boots. She was last seen in the foothills of Jefferson County," the sheriff's office said.

    An alert sent out by Rocky Mountain Safe Streets Task force stated that Pais is "infatuated" with the Columbine school shooting in which gunmen killed 12 students and one teacher 20 years ago and was "attempting to buy firearms," The Denver Channel reported.

    They keep claiming she was "infatuated" with the Columbine shooting ... but give no details.
    (more sloppy reporting)
    Given that she was found dead by suicide, perhaps her "infatuation" was with death in general and wanting to die at school.
    We don't know, because they won't provide details.

    Either way, she had mental issues - that her parents should have gotten her help for.
    And maybe there should be a national database for people with suicidal tendencies.  
    But honestly, I think that is you're serious about suicide, it's your Right - and a gun is the most efficient way.

    Usually, if someone is intent on going on a killing spree, and they are denied their original target - they will find a similar one.
    So we need to know exactly what the "(non specific) credible threat" was.

    I totally see what you are saying.  I don't know if they are blowing this thing out of proportion, or what.  They might be keeping the rest on the down-low since she is on the run.  Maybe they have the SENSE for ONCE to keep it mum.  I DOUBT it. I am giving the media too much credit.  

    I hope she is just some nutter who is off her meds and wants publicity and no one gets hurt.  BUT STILL.... this could happen any minute AGAIN and AGAIN....

    She's no longer on the run.
    Her dead body was found at the base of Mount Evans in Clear Creek County, Colorado, according to media reports.

    Poor thing.  I can say that now because she didn't kill anyone.  She is demented. But it is hard to feel anything when the demented makes for killing innocents.  And children to boot.

  • Poor thing????


    POOR THING???

    Really?   Screw her,  look what her intentions were.  She isn't worth any sympathy.   So what if she was demented,  more reason she should be removed from public.

    I'd say moreso some kind of database for those with proven homicidal tendencies. The issue though is it's a very slippery slope to define what precisely makes someone "crazy" enough to be barred from owning a gun and whether or not it should be a permanent ban.

    Thats the thing with USA. They have a law that make people able to buy guns and left them at home. Anyone that is slightly psycho can become dangerous with these guns.

    And now, we are told the saddest outcome.  This woman who wanted to kill, was found dead now.  So, she never got to see what she needed.  She needed to see that she needed HELP and medication.  

    This is what I mean, franc.  Do not go off medications.  I don't think you would ever harm ANYONE.  That is not what I mean.  I mean this woman probably was recommended to take medicine for her mind and no one watched out for her.

    Please listen to your mom.  I want you to succeed and be happy.  I know you would never harm a soul. This post was edited by WM BARR . =ABSOLUTE TRASH at April 17, 2019 1:08 PM MDT

  • I wouldn't be at all surprised we find out she was treated for mental disorders and was on  medication.  I am willing to out my money on it.
