    Free speech is one thing but saying he could see children from where he was at and didn't have a problem with murdering them is a bit dumb.

    Some people are just scum and deserve to be arrested for things like this even if he didn't have anything to do with it. http://www.talktalk.co.uk/news/uk/ar...tribute/62057/

        It's easy to look back with 20/20 vision and wonder why something wasn't done to prevent a tragedy. Before every shooting it seems the person expressed anger toward others, his wish to do something "big", etc. And every time people ask why those early warnings were ignored.

        There is nothing vague in what he posted. He was probably just showing off - but we don't know that.

        He "could see children from where he was at and had no problem murdering them," he wrote, adding that it would be like the Aurora shooting.

    I would say police did their job. If someone writes "I will kill" then victim can file a lawsuit against the person. After all, Victim have written proof and police can arrest the person for interrogation.

    EDIT BY MODERATOR: Why does your location say "Chicago" when your IP is in Romania?
    I'm staying in Romania for a while but I'm from Chicago, is there a problem?
