^ Yeah, that rubbed me the wrong way and kinda pissed me off too, Duchess.
Dad was well aware of threats his son made against the librarian. He'd gone to several disciplinary hearings at the school regarding the matter, by his own admission. Karl Pierson was HIS son.
Dad's statement makes it sound like he's suggesting that if the librarian had only caved in and appeased the kid (which I suspect, but have no way of knowing, is what the kid's parents did), none of this would have happened.
As if there's anything that the librarian could have done to make a murderous attack on a school understandable or justified. As if the school librarian should somehow understand what was going on inside the kid's mind more than his own dad. As if the librarian has something to answer for.
I wonder if Dad Pierson was the kind who believed his son could do no wrong...
