Teenage waitress arrested for saying she wanted to 'shoot 400 people for fun' with her new AK-47

A teenage waitress in Oklahoma was arrested after showing off photos of her new AK-47 to a coworker and telling her she was going to shoot up hundreds of people at her former high school.

Alexis Wilson, 18, was arrested at her home after authorities said she told a coworker at the pizza shop where she worked that she wanted to “shoot up 400 people for fun” at McAlester High School. She also allegedly showed a second person videos of her firing the assault weapon.

Wilson had been expelled from the high school over violent incidents and was suspended at one point when she was found with a knife.

When deputies searched her home, they found the AK-47, six magazines, and a 12-gauge shotgun with a shot sleeve for extra shells. When confronted about the threat, deputies said Wilson told them “she would never shoot up a school,” and that her coworker took what she said the wrong way, according to the McAlester News-Capital.

let the authorities see if it was a joke or not

either way, Ms. Wilson is just another example of someone who should not have ANY weapons

My curiosity has been piqued.
How exactly am I supposed to take, "...shoot up 400 people for fun..." and "...shoot up hundreds of people at her former high school."?
Especially from someone who has been expelled for violent incidents

She needs to be removed from society for a long while.
A message needs to be sent to her, and to her ilk.

But, it says quite a bit about our society when a joke is about mass murder.

On edit: I just don't know what to think anymore. This is insane!

she'd gone into a crowded place, she'd have run out of ammunition long accomplishing her goal.
