Suljo Talovic said he would not make excuses for his son, but did not understand how a teenager could buy a gun in the United States.I feel for you, Mr. Talovic. I really do. I can only imagine the hell you and your wife are going through, and I pray I will never experience the loss of a child.
"The authorities are guilty for not alerting us that he bought a gun. In the U.S., you cannot buy cigarettes if you are underaged, but you can buy a gun," he said.

Um, I thought it was illegal to buy smokes whle "under age", the same as it is to buy a gun while "under age". Somehow, this doesn't seem to stop these under age people from buying either. Why is that, do you suppose?

"I feel sorry for my child, but I also feel sorry for all the innocent people he has killed," the 18-year-old's father, Suljo Talovic, said.

At 18 he was an adult man who could vote, join the army, buy cigarettes or a house, or get married. All without someone asking his mommy if it was OK first.
Ahhh, it must be the will of Allah!!!
