The mother of the teenager who slaughtered 19 children and two teachers at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, said he 'had his reasons.'Salvador Ramos' mother Adriana Reyes aka Martinez, told CNN in Spanish: 'I have no words. I have no words to say. I don't know what he was thinking.
'He had his reasons for doing what he did and please don't judge him,' she continued.
Reyes also begged for forgiveness for herself and her son after the mass shooting on Tuesday.'I only want the innocent children who died to forgive me. Forgive me, forgive my son. I know he had his reasons.'

What possible reason could her dirtbag son have for slaughtering fourth graders (and a couple of teachers) that he didn't know? What a stupid thing to say.

REASONS?!?
This is what passes for responsible parenting. This is what occupies the head-space where accountability and contrition should be.
“What an idiot,” doesn’t even convey it. Words…don’t convey the bottomless depth of the stupidity of certain Americans.
Breitbart said— I think— politics is downstream of culture, and Krauthammer said while politics is by it’s nature hypocritical and protean, “You can have the most advanced and efflorescent of cultures. Get your politics wrong, however, and everything stands to be swept away. . . . Politics is the moat, the walls, beyond which lie the barbarians.”
This imbecile is that barbarian. Unbelievable. Fantastical. No wonder the kid was what he was.

"He had his reasons"?! What the? Stupid lady, you'll never have the satisfaction of knowing those children forgive YOU! What's wrong with people?

With a clueless dimwit like this as a parent was he destined for much else?? Ugh, I'm sure her beloved little angel "Never did anything wrong. It was the other kids fault".

FTA:Reyes previously said she was 'surprised' by Salvador Ramos opening fire at Robb Elementary School
Surprise! Your son is one of the world's worse mass murderers. A moody, sullen, friendless teenager is a ticking time bomb.

I would think this woman is in danger from those who have had their children killed by her son. She is as much to blame for what happened. I would suggest to her that she vacate the area for her own safety. I would imagine emotions are high. It's a border town that has a lot of people living on the edge.

Like the Floyd family, she thinks in her addled brain that she will get mega-bucks from an anti gun group or similar lefty causes. She should move far away as there are a lot of parents who will have no sense of humor about her remarks.

I am sure he had reasons. None of them were good reasons, but he had reasons.

Among his "reasons" was the fact that he had a drug addict mother and an absent father (both of whom had criminal records) and grew up feral.

Not to judge her son? Good luck with that. And, BTW, the only judgement that matters has already been handed down on him.

Her totally messed up son should be hated with a fiery passion for his pure evil. She's at least partially responsible for not teaching him to be a good person. Her excuses are self serving and tiresome.

Madam, it would behoove you to stop talking about your son. There is NO excuse and NO reason - NONE- for what he did. Go to a church and pray.

Sounds like the mother is about the same class of “nut job” as her son! For her own safety she should get out of that town immediately if not sooner and keep her mouth shut from here on out.

His reasons? Are you guys all drug cartel connected? Did you point out to your son that Border Patrol Agents had kids in that school?
Yup. Asking for a friend.

It seems as if she did not know her son at all. They were not living together so how could she? The kid had no empathy. I could only imagine that he shot up the Snoopy stuffed toy that she gave to him as a birthday gift. Without a stable family life, the kid never had a chance.

The mother's appeal makes sense if you know anything about death and judgement. There is only being who makes the actual judgement.

She does not look to torn up about it in the pictures. She's granted a few interviews too. She looks like she does not have a care in the world.

She is a psychopath, as was her offspring. No capacity for taking responsibility.

Explaining and excusing are two different things. All the reasons in the world cannot excuse this evil deed.
"[T]o get closer to those children?" That's the THC talking. You're telling us much more than you realize about the person who raised him.
But don't worry; I'm sure he's saving you a seat.

I read that Mom is a drug addict which is why he was living with his grandparents.
That could be a reason.

Yes, and perhaps the principal reason for his behavior was the example his mother set for him.

FTA: "Reyes said: 'My son wasn't a violent person. I'm surprised by what he did.'"
Surprised by ... surprised by?!? It's hard not to jump to judgment, when there seems not to be any contrition or sorrow expressed over this. At least the estranged father seems to apologize, although it's unclear what part his parenting (or lack thereof) might have played in this.
Remembering that the MSM has been profoundly anti-second-amendment for decades (and in the long habit of distorting their reporting to serve that aim) makes me reluctant to take any of the reports at face value. Expecting that every one of them has spun the story since day one.

The Mom is a worthless enabler providing excuses for her murderous son even after he killed 19 children and two adults. He had his reasons no he was a mental case that should have been in an institution.

Reasons? REASONS?! There is NO possible reason for murder... EVER! He was a self-absorbed psychopath who hated everyone around him, but that will not cause him to murder! Only his volition caused him to murder, many, many times. Disgusting PIG.

Both parents should stand trial for creating the creature then hanged on live international video feed. You want to stop this behavior then do something to make sure people that need help get it.
