Huh. Have any of them considered a job? If the mom was capable of driving her child to another state to murder some people, I bet she could drive for uber or something. Or be a getaway driver for other criminals, idk.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought Kyle lied to her about everything he was doing that night.

[–] deweydecibel 28 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He did. The gun was never in her home, she couldn't do anything about it. It was locked up at his friend's house because his mother wouldn't have permitted him to have it.

Yeah, but she's related to him and loves him because he is her son, and we hate him, so obviously she should suffer too. Justice and empathy? Fuck that. We're outraged and out for some suffering.

No, she should have social supports, education, a safety net, retirement and security. The exact things people like her piece of shit brother actively try to deny others all the time. Society tried to help this person.

Now on an individual level before I would ever help her, I’d want to know if she ever saw a cent of Kyle’s blood money.
