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.

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

(24,328 posts)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

A message needs to be sent to her, and to her ilk.

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