TheNewGirl 1,634 Posted October 16 This guy was on a high school campus with a firearm at the end of September, talking about sniper vantage points in the school. He was arrested, where he was going to be released without bail (YAY, CA!) but judge decided to actually change that...dude makes bail anyways and gets released. He claimed he was there because his son goes to that high school; this was after school hours during the Homecoming Parade. He was making comments to a HS Coach that he could "take out this entire school in seconds." Coach decided to have someone call PD. A few weeks later, after being told that he cannot be so many feet within a school, he's seen at an Elementary school, found that he's breaking a restraining order (that his ex-wife has for the safety of his children). He's arrested again at his home, found to have knives and firearms in his car. He was released on bond again. Claimed he was walking to a local Panda Express and happened to "walk by the school." Quote KCRA 3 also obtained a copy of the temporary restraining order, where Taras' wife told the courts he's been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and has in the past refused to take his medication. When asked about his mental health and medication Taras said, "You know, I have medication that I take occasionally when I have like a worry, it's something that I manage and I'll continue to manage, and I don't know if it's related to bipolar [disorder] or my brain injury or maybe the trauma exposures that I experienced." By brain injury, Taras is referring to when he suffered a severe head injury that caused a concussion and required stitches while he worked for the United States Forest Service as a civil engineer. Dude with a TBI, bipolar, a history of domestic violence, possible PTSD, and then refuses to take his medication decides to walk around a HS campus and talk about how he can take to the school in 30 seconds, asks where the exits are...and is released on bond TWICE. This is the issue with the lax laws that we have here in CA, to where the FBI needs to be called in...because the Mayor said, "There's nothing more that she can do." Incredibly disturbing. I love that my small city won't stand for shiiite like this. I read somewhere that a group of parents actually reached out to the local branch of the FBI to come and do something. Dude was at schools with firearms TWICE....and we just let him go. He's got a history of mental illness and had guns - with some of the strictest gun laws in the country, this guy must hav passed the background checks and holding periods. https://www.kcra.com/article/man-federal-custody-multiple-arrests-school-campuses-folsom/69036118 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What good are passing laws if you don't enforce them? Oh right. Virtue signaling so the next time a gun crime occurs because you didn't enforce the existing laws you can pass even more strict gun control laws to not enforce. Then they wonder why people like you and I resist those new laws being passed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was just shocked that it's getting to the point where parents contact the FBI, because CA laws just let the people out in a matter of hours. Someone posted on social media about stricter laws, and it's like, why bother? It clearly wouldn't have stopped this guy...and as long as you take the CA gun license test on your own, on a computer...why wouldn't you lie to get a gun?

jonnyutah 527 Posted October 16 Obviously if you just made guns illegal you would have nothing to worry about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonnyutah 527 Posted October 16 Maybe make those schools gun free zones. Easy peasy. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
