1. I know I will get flamed again

Can you guys check and see if this is already posted. This is like the 4th post on the same issue. Can the mods merge threads?

[SummerSnow]

2. I had no clue it was posted. Maybe the mods are asleep

[Duckhunter935]

4. no problem

this seems to happen at times, I am guilty of this too.

5. Obviously, this particular issue bothers you a great deal.

There are many, many duplicate threads on many topics - I agree that it can get tedious sometimes and it would be nice if people would check to see if there is an existing thread . . .

Unfortunately, that's pretty much a non-starter these days, so I would suggest that you take advantage of the various methods of hiding ("trashing&quot threads that you don't want to see. That way, you won't have to be confronted by them - since it is clearly causing you considerable stress.

6. not really

said the same thing on other topics

[enlightenment]

18. Then you definitely need to use the "trash thread"

option more often. The days of not having repeat posts are long ago and far away.

8. There is no rule against duplicate posts in gd.

Nor is there a merge or move function. There is however a trash thread option that enables you to create your own view of du.

3. I think it was the boy's father for sure and he was a preacher.

9. Pastor of a local church and chaplain to the fire department

Information here is pretty thin. Nobody seems to know the relationships of the people who were shot to the shooter.

It's just another sad story of a teenager with easy access to too many guns, especially an ugly military style gun capable of aiding in mass murder.

[southernyankeebelle]

10. I'd like to know who taught him how to shoot the guns.

[malaise]

11. I'm betting he wiped out his entire family

Don't ask me why they needed all those weapons

[muriel_volestrangler]

14. reported to be 10 children in the family

<snip>
Peter Gomez, a 54-year-old carpenter who lives about 200 yards from the home, said he saw police vehicles and ambulances arrive Saturday night.

Gomez said he doesn't know the family that lives at the house, but he has seen a married couple and their two boys and two girls from time to time.

16. it had been on the church website

Griego and his wife, Sarah, have 10 kids, according to the pastor’s biography on the Calvary Church website, which has been removed. The other children’s ages were not given in the biography.

The suspect, Nehemiah Griego, 15, was not well known among those living within a block or so of the family’s home on Long Lane in the South Valley.

However, neighbor Peter Gomez said he saw the boy walk with siblings and his parents through the neighborhood regularly, and he “wore nothing but camouflage stuff”.

If the person didn't know the family, he wouldn't know if that was the whole family. If one is 15, however, it's quite possible that 6 older ones don't live at home any longer.

17. Wow- well he's not exactly young so that's possible

He's in the middle
