The saint is the man who walks through the dark paths of the world, himself a light."

Though I'm usually in full support of the idea that parents take at least some of the blame for their child's actions, in a case like this, many people were at fault.
Let's not forget the teachers and students who spent eight hours a day with the guy as he grew up. Or the other people in his life who had to have noticed that something was really wrong with this guy.
Crazy of that magnitude doesn't manifest itself over night. He sent out red flags to everyone remotely close to him, I'm sure.
They simply chose to look the other way. But at the end of the day the mother knew this and allowed access to an assault riflle. Pretty hard to argue that regardless.
Even if she knew it, it was probably pretty hard for her to act upon. Yes because it is very hard to buy a gun cabinet? Situation controlled.
Refer to my previous post.
She didn't want to hide them away from him, she thought what she was doing was right.
