Conservatives blame father of the shooter for his son’s actions

By SJ Otto
When  ever I want to get a conservative’s view on an event I go to Yahoo News. The conservative trolls seem to swarm all over Yahoo News. So I went there and saw this article, “Texas shooting suspect's father: 'We are grieving, our family is grieving.” I looked at the comments and saw several like this one:

What is really scary is - "like father like son!" This man blames the media...why can't he fess up and say something like, "I am so sorry that MY son did what he did...". Instead he blames the media for his current state of affairs and shows no sorrow or remorse for the families that have been destroyed because his sperm and total lack of parental control during his son's younger life created a monster!!!

Let’s face it. Conservatives are not the forgiving type. They avoid any understanding of people in this kind of situation. Almost all of the comments I found blamed the father of this man for the killings. They ignored any feelings this man might have for the victims and just assumed he had something to do with his son’s actions. I guess conservatives believe most people are guilty of something. Maybe that is why they are so pro-cop and pro-law-and-order. Here are more examples below.

The media circus has not destroyed his family's life, his son did. I know they loved him but again, had to have seen signs of his latest level of behavior. He lived on their property and had been shooting and testing his weapons on their place. Put that together with his past behavior, how could you possibly have ignored as a parent?

The media is not destroying the families lives. The son destroyed all their lives.

Chris Almighty, Mr. Michael Kelly...that sure is very comforting. "I don't want our lives, our grandchildren's lives, destroyed by this media circus," Michael Kelly said, adding that the family has nothing else to say at the moment. Why not just meet with EVERY one of the victims' family, and apologize for giving the sperm that produced this monster? Media Circus? omg, sorry for the tremendous inconvenience to you and your family, of the murderer of men, women, children, and babies...inside a Church of Worship! Exscuuuuuse... ME!

You watched your son become aggressive and troubled throughout his high school years and apparently the kid didn't get the help he needed before becoming a monster. I would say part of your life as a parent should be judged for not doing something long ago.

If that was all he said he should have saved his breath. Unreal he didn't express how sorry he was to the families of the victims. It just came across as narcissistic, in my opinion. I could go further but probably shouldn't.

If his father put him in an institution where he belonged none of this would have happened. Wake up old man your 'son' has been a problem child for a long time.

Your son destroyed your family's lives, not the media....Your son was violently mentally ill, and NO ONE did anything about it....
