Mom helped arm a Columbine wannabe
Dillon Cossey, 14, has, as they say, "a weight problem," which provoked bullying, which he dropped out of school to get away from, but that apparently didn't end his revenge fantasies. He's going to juvy until age 21, but it turns out his mom had bought him gunpowder and a rifle with a laser scope, but, she said, only to "improve his self-esteem," as she had no idea what was bubbling in Big Dillon's mind.

avmayes614 - Not just guns, guns, and more guns, but also gunpowder. But hey, what's gonna happen with guns and gun powder? I guess that's why he had his backup weapon (a bb gun) and several knives?

You know, I was teased and harassed for being super-skinny when I was young and I never even thought of shooting up the school. Man, was I dumb. If I had known that guns would have solved all my problems, I would have looked into that.

Luckily, I kept a list!

What the heck was the gunpowder for? Isn't it already included in the bullets? What a freak. I suspect we'll be seeing Dillor and/or his mom in the news again someday.
