"Guns? oh mom, you shouldn't have! You're the best!"

All I could say when I first saw this is why! why! why! The mother of a bulllied kid admits to helping her son obtain weapons which he was planning on using in an attack on his high school.

The quote that really got me was the following:
Parisi says the mother, in her own way, was trying to help her 14-year-old son fend off bullies.

What... the... hell! I don't know what other options the mom had. I don't know the polacies at the school, and I don't know the type of bullying that took place. But even telling your kid to go participate in a good old fassioned fist fight is better than giving him a gun and saying "there ya go junior. go get em!"

I just marvel at some people's lack of parenting skills!
