  1. This is how serial killers are formed. Every serial killer documentary shows that they just end up killing more people when our justice system let them loose citing some rules.

  2. Mama raising a thug to hate whitey!!

  3. Why have a locked gun in your purse if you can't get to the key to use it.

    Sounds made up

  4. Why isn't the Mother being charged ?

  5. "Allegedly Shot"
    C'mon man. Is there just ZERO accountability these days? That kid shot that teacher. Not allegedly. There. Fixed your mistake.

  6. what did the teacher do to him? That should be the question. She did something to him. Hes 6. She did something. Domt just take her side cuz she's white

  7. Its obvious that we're raising monsters today but starting at 6 now? I guess they cant wait till age 10 to commit murder and mayhem anymore….

  8. A lot of you have zero business reproducing.

  9. "Hood culture" is the only way to explain this 6 year olds life.

  10. The kid was acting up that morning. One of his parents usually accompanied him to school. The teacher went to the principal several times about him but the principal poo pooed the situation. They should have called his mother right away to come to the school If they did might have been a different outcome

  11. Again, why didn’t this mother have her gun secured in a gun safe? I feel no pity for stupidity.

  12. That's why I say mr. President you need to take away the guns

  13. Sick child and lying mother. What a family.

  14. Typical NBC propaganda…. zero new information… Just dragging it back up. NOT news….

  15. That boy had every intention of killing his teacher and he's NOT being charged at all?! Thanks for letting a future serial killer loose. He's just learned there are NO CONSEQUENCES for his actions.

  16. what a beautiful 'ulture this young gentleman grew up in

  17. As a teacher in the past, I would never choose this profession again. I dealt with students with behavioral problems but never worried about being shot while performing my duties. Republicans have made this world unsafe for everyone.

  18. Mom's raising a little gangster!

  19. I wonder what made him do this. Something is seriously wrong with his whole situation.
    Everyone is putting all this blame on this little 6 year old boy.. He is a child and he really doesn’t know what is what, his mother is to blame and all adults that let him down.. I feel so bad that this teacher got caught in the middle or this baby’s mental break

  20. And nothing will happen to the shooter and the parent needs to be charged both for attack thats the only way to stop it. But comrade Democrats only blame the gun never the shooter

  21. Good. Mom needs to be accountable.

  22. Thats bs on how they are going to let the boy off any and all charges. Smdh the justice system is rigged

  23. Vulgarity aggression entitlement … the staple of the ghetto low life… then is all about victimized thinking and defense. How the future for this people unroll is predictable. The whole thing was predictable anyone who doesn’t see it coming is blind or conspirators or most likely ignore … till touch them.

  24. Imagine!!! This is devastating- a six year old kid talking like a nineteen year old gang member.

  25. I would sue that monster mom for million of dollars and ruin her family for the rest of their life .

  26. What did the teacher do to the boy? Need the entire story. 6yr olds dont shoot people and make that statement unless provoked.

  27. He belongs in a psych center

  28. Never leave a firearm or anything potentially dangerous or toxic easily accessible with children in the house.

  29. I already know what the kid looks like and I haven't even seen him

  30. A demon child and a terrible mother and she is an irresponsible gun owner finally reached critical mass with deadly potential. Would you let this demon child in your school? Would his own father take him into his home?

  31. 6 year olds shooting people…Americans aren't sick… oh well there's no fix to society anymore….God Has left the building…along with morals and values.

  32. It's amazing this is considered news at all.

  33. Just the tip of the iceburg of Racial upbringing towards VIOLENCE, by people who's culture is embedded with hate and violence,

  34. Also who cares if he is a 6 year old because he made a very adult decision to attempt to take someone’s life. Someone DOX this family so the community knows and they can be safe.

  35. Allegedly? He did it there isn’t any doubt about it. Jesus Christ people.

  36. That child needs to be kept away from society until it is clear he's not a danger. I don't care that he's "only" six. Next time the victim might not be so lucky.

  37. Why are there no pictures of the mom if she's been charged and she's going to plead guilty? Why is NBC always selective when showing the criminal or perpetrator?

  38. Did she just say allegedly shot? Are you fuc*ing kidding me. Leave it to main stream media.

  39. WHATS THE WOMANS NAME???????????????????????????????

  40. Maybe giving everyone easy access to guns wasn't such a great idea.

  41. 6 yrs old…. GHETTO PARENTS, RAISING GHETTO KIDS.
