Crimo's father says he has "NO REGRETS" on helping his son obtain rifle.

[Cattledog]

POS

[Arkansas Granny]

1. Then arrest his ass as an accomplice.

[LoisB]

2. Amen!

[no_hypocrisy]

10. And as a fascilitator.

[calimary]

26. THIS!

The madness continues because NOTHING decisive is done to stop it.

Maybe we need a little shock-treatment.

BESIDES: it’s liable to throw the enemy for a loop. They may not know or feel so cock-sure how to respond. They won’t know what to do when Dems stop acting like doormats. Especially when they’re already hard-wired to wipe their feet on us.

[Samrob]

54. I still can't get over that his creepy son was taken alive. SMH nt

[SergeStorms]

64. A Black man....

being stopped for having an air freshener hanging from his mirror would have been pumped full of lead.

This POS murders 7 people, has a semi-automatic death machine in the car with him, and he's gently placed inside the squad car like he was made of eggshells.

Yeah, I can't believe he was taken alive either. Of course the things I've been forced to believe since IQ45 started his walk to the bottom of the barrel astounds me.

[LoisB]

3. So I guess he has no regrets for the lives of the seven people his son killed with that rifle, the

dozens he injured and who knows how many left orphaned or widowed.

[FarPoint]

9. Let us not forget the injured...

A set of twin boys...I believe 4 years old twins...one twin had his spine severed by a bullet and is in a coma, other unjured as was the mother who released herself to be with her critically injured son...

[LoisB]

11. I did say injured but my God, these 4 year-olds. How do you tell a 4 year-old, sorry, you can't

run anymore. Yeah, he needs to be tried as an accomplice. No one can tell me the parents had no idea what their son is.

[FarPoint]

15. The father was the templet for the evil son...

I sure hope he can at a minimum be sued for every nickel he makes and earns....

This arrogant and obnoxious man will never have a redemption arc.

[LoisB]

19. Yes! I doubt he knows what a redemption arc is. I am sure he has convinced himself that he

has done nothing wrong. If nothing else, I hope he and his entire family become pariahs where they live.

[rubbersole]

53. Or keynote speaker at the next CPAC event.

[LoisB]

55. Sadly, that is what will most likely be the case.

[More_Cowbell]

58. The father seems to be judgment proof

Not much money in that family.

[carpetbagger]

4. "hold my beer... I dare them to sue me in civil court"

Oops

[Just A Box Of Rain]

7. Yeah, such statements will certainly cost him in a civil trial.

[oioioi]

5. Oh you will, Deplorable. You will.

[dalton99a]

6. Typical Trump sociopath

Robert Crimo Jr. stands in a park near his home in Highland Park, Ill. His son Robert Crimo III was arrested as a suspect in the mass shooting at a July 4th parade. His parents, Bob Crimo Jr. and Denise Pesina, live in Highland, Ill., less than two miles from where the shooting took place. Daniel William McKnight/Polaris

[LoisB]

13. I would like to slap that smug look off his face.

[North Shore Chicago]

71. He has a set on him!

Moobs that is.

I rarely comment on people's appearances but......damn. His smirk, everything. Yuck.

[Hav]

8. That's one weird occasion to use to virtue signal to the crazies

Even if he's a psycho that doesn't care about the casualties, you'd think a dad would have second thoughts considering that his son's life is practically over as well.

[Kid Berwyn]

50. He seems to be part of the problem.

In saying he has no regrets, Crimo Jr grotesquely advertises his status as a hero to the Reich.

I hate NAZIs.

[Captain Zero]

72. I really hate Illinois Nazis.

nt

[mucifer]

12. Does he want to go to prison?

Sounds like

[Turbineguy]

14. I guess he didn't know any of the victims.

[BradAllison]

28. Yup

"Not my problem"

[bluestarone]

16. How many FN guns does

HE own? He needs to be court bound for sure.

[patphil]

17. He didn't know any of the people his son killed, so why should he care?

It's no skin off his nose.

[Mysterian]

18. America has far too many people of low morality and character

like this asswipe.

[AntiFascist]

20. Typical MAGAt n/t

[MustLoveBeagles]

21. Smh

[Evolve Dammit]

22. Totally incapable of rational thought. MAGAT through and through. Deplorable. n/t

[housecat]

23. Sue him. Money will get his attention

[struggle4progress]

36. Parental Responsibility Law (740 ILCS 115)

... The parent or legal guardian of an unemancipated minor who resides with such parent or legal guardian is liable for actual damages for the wilful or malicious acts of such minor which cause injury to a person or property, including damages caused by a minor who has been adjudicated a delinquent for violating Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012. Reasonable attorney's fees may be awarded to any plaintiff in any action under this Act ...

https://www.ilga.gov/legislation/ilcs/ilcs3.asp?ActID=2045&ChapterID=57

[former9thward]

38. It does not apply.

The shooter was not a minor.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

41. Does he have any exposure?

[former9thward]

45. He may depending on his advance knowledge.

That is yet to be seen.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

48. Not showing remorse now isn't going to inure to his benefit later.

His callousness is not only morally odious but potentially costly. And in any case it is very likely he will never again see his son outside of a prison meeting room.

[former9thward]

51. I think he is insane to be making any statements.

I would be taking a long vacation somewhere if I were him.

[housecat]

82. He had to be insane to enable his monster offspring to murder.

[struggle4progress]

56. Yes, you are correct

[lostnfound]

76. Not a minor.

[struggle4progress]

77. Yes, you are correct

[Demobrat]

24. He doesn't care that he will never see his son outside of

a prison visiting room again? If that?

[Upthevibe]

25. Cattledog..........

I think this P.O.S. needs to STFU!!!!!!!!!!!!

[calimary]

27. My beloved mother-in-law used to say, about how kids are raised:

“They don’t suck it out of their thumbs.”

[cate94]

29. He should expect

Law suits. And I hope they sue the ever loving f out of him. Asshat.

[Cozmo]

30. Who cares! This what what we should expect from our fellow Americans

[Maine Abu El Banat]

31. Your Son hopefully

Will never take another breath as a free man. And you have no regrets? These people defy all logic.

[Rebl2]

32. Maybe he

is mad that he lost to the current mayor. To say he has no regrets is sick. Maybe he should be investigated.

[Alwaysna]

33. Only someone with feathers for brains ...

would buy an assualt rifle for a son would threatened to kill his family. Should have bought him a pea shooter.

[BigmanPigman]

34. He and Rittenhouse's mother would make a great couple....

They would win "Parents of the Year" awards from the GQP. The perfect GQP family.

[Backseat Driver]

65. Yes, each remind me of the parents the author described about

the resistant therapy M. Scott Peck encountered in his The People of the Lie. Perhaps other DUers have read that then "bestseller" and recall more about that same therapy attempt as described by the author as he tried to explain what constituted evil - I believe the boy was called Bobby, but he talked quite a bit about the parents of said son. It's been a long time, and I don't own the book.

[Paladin]

35. He'll regret losing everything as a result of his stupid actions.

Serves him right.

[hadEnuf]

37. What the hell kind of person makes a statement like that?

He's obviously proud that his kid went out and murdered 7 and injured 17 people in cold blood. It's not a stretch to think he actually helped his son plan this.

This piece of human garbage is quite possibly an accomplice.

[mvd]

39. Of course not

Personal responsibility is all for the liberals!

[48656c6c6f20]

40. This is why you cannot trust gun owners

And those who think the 2nd amendment is sacrosanct. They'll say it do anything to prove that dealing death is a normal way of life. Don't ever trust them.

[purr-rat beauty]

74. I have a saying...

You are a responsible gun owner until you are not

How many people have waved around their guns to intimidate or discharged their guns which were obtained legally, even managed mostly responsibly?

[YoshidaYui]

42. sounds like

an asshole.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

43. The father MUST face consequences..

Link to tweet

[elleng]

44. I HOPE the Illinois authorities give him reason to have REGRETS.

[Raine]

46. Then he bares responsibility and should be charged

since apparently he's OK with what happened having no regrets.

[bringthePaine]

47. well, there's yer expert testimony for aiding & abetting, perhaps conspiracy, depraved indifference

[Bluethroughu]

49. There you have it!

This filth among us, they are soulless and vengeful.

Please be safe and aware of your surroundings. We have plenty of these in our future daily until these weapons of war are removed from our streets.

[USALiberal]

52. Why no link to the story??

[More_Cowbell]

60. Here's one

https://abc7chicago.com/highland-park-shooting-parade-robert-crimo-father/12026458/

He also claims that he was just signing a consent form for the state to do a background check. And that he knew his son had a handgun, but "he did not know his son had purchased at least five weapons, including two high-powered rifles."

Jerk.

[USALiberal]

68. Thank you!!

[niyad]

57. May he receive everything he deserves.

[Sympthsical]

59. "How did the shooter slip through the cracks?!"

Oh.

Nevermind.

[Lonestarblue]

61. If you can't regret the murder of seven innocent people, you have no morals, no integrity,

no humanity. People with his mindset are the major problem in this country. They don’t actually care how many people are murdered because the only thing they care about is themselves. Maybe some criminal liability charges would make him have regrets.

[summer_in_TX]

63. It's wrong to say he isn't deeply sad about it.

He just assigns all the guilt to his son.

He just followed the law and it was totally up to the background checkers to approve or deny the application.

The family is receiving death threats, likely because people
think the Dad is responsible – and because they think he doesn't care about all they lost. The ABC interview shows someone who is horrified at what his son did but doesn't take the blame for any of it on himself.

[link:https://abc7chicago.com/highland-park-shooting-parade-robert-crimo-father/12026458/|]

[MrsCoffee]

69. Oh please. The POS was liking and retweeting 2nd amendment shit in the wake of Uvalde.

I can't imagine where people get the notion he doesn't care about all they lost.

[summer_in_TX]

62. Crimo's father does not blame himself. He does blame his son, completely.

[link:https://abc7chicago.com/highland-park-shooting-parade-robert-crimo-father/12026458/|]

In the meantime, the father said he hasn't stopped thinking about the victims since the shooting.

"My heart goes out to them. I just I can only imagine losing a family member at a parade or a child that doesn't have their parents? It's horrific," Crimo Jr. said.

"I love my son, but it's, it's devastating to everyone involved. Anyone who was, who passed away, injured, psychologically damaged, hearing the gunfire -- there were little children. It's a horrific act. I would never want to see that happen again. That's why we need to do something about it. I think the whole system has to be overhauled," Crimo Jr. said.

Unless I'm missing something, he is absolutely saying he believes there should be stronger gun laws.

But one more little interesting tidbit:

As this community is working to heal, ABC7 has learned that police were called to the Crimo home a number of times since 2002 for domestic incidents. Few involved the suspected shooter.

The implication is that there was domestic abuse in the home.

[ecstatic]

70. Wow. He doesn't seem very self aware

It's a horrific act. I would never want to see that happen again. That's why we need to do something about it. I think the whole system has to be overhauled," Crimo Jr. said.

[summer_in_TX]

80. Yeah.

Something wrong with the thought processing there!

[Xoan]

67. DUMBASS

[purr-rat beauty]

73. Then he is an accomplice to mass murder

Arrest his fucking heartless, shit smeared ass now

[DFW]

75. Then, by definition, he has no regrets over what his son did with it

That deserves an indictment as an accomplice.

[dalton99a]

78. +1

[TheFarseer]

79. To be fair

There’s Trans people and uppity women in the country. Can you blame him? Who can know right from wrong anymore? This is Tucker Carlson’s basic argument.

[yardwork]

81. His statements make him sound sociopathic.
