I've dealt with out of control autistics in the past. I wish people would understand that they aren't pets.

I read that too, but I'm waiting for the official word. If it is true, however, and this mother knew that her son was so dangerous he needed to be committed, why on earth would she keep so many guns in the house?

Am I the only one thinking this is a stupid idea, if indeed it's even real?

No answer there. Except that there are some very stupid gunowners out there. Wish that wasn't the case and it pains me to say that.
