We saw with the Florida shooter that he made numerous threats to become a school shooter and nothing was done.
I say that this boy’s family should willingly give up all their firearms but if they don’t want to, too bad... this kid is a threat and the public has a right to their safety and I don’t believe this kid can be trusted for a long, long time.
What say you fine folks?
I say mandate mental health treatment for the boy. Autism doesn't make people more prone to violence or violent threats in and of itself.
Also, mandate that the parents agree to lock up all their guns with absolutely no access to them by the boy and stipulate that they're subject to random checks of the house (and actually follow through with random checks).
I think it would be less risky to mandate that the parents have no guns in the house; very few people want to see another Adam Lanza or Nikolas Cruz situation play out. However, the parents do have a Second Amendment right to bear arms, in a regulated fashion that is not without restrictions.
