perpetrator families: opinions?

[Midwest Spy]

Let's use the Columbine killings as an example of parents that HAD to know their sons were sick, evil fucks, yet did nothing about it.

I think enough evidence came out that the 2 kids were up to no good, yet parents chose to look the other way, or hoped that it would simply 'go away'.

I think people/parents like that, who most likely knew their children were capable of crime, yet chose to do nothing, are to me, as guilty as their kids who committed the acts.

They should be ostracized by their friends, neighbors, community, etc.

If you raised 'em, and they still live under your roof, then shame on you as a parent.

There's a kid from near here who recently gunned down 2 store clerks in Iowa. I feel for his parents, because he's been trouble for them (bad egg) since day one. And I do believe that there simply are truly evil people. It wouldn't matter if their parents were the pope, it wouldn't help.

The parents of this teenagers mistake in my eyes? They left guns accessible for this kid to take and use. He essentially murdered two women because he wanted to know what it was like to kill someone.

Those parents have since moved, understandably.
