Dailymail obtained the moment a 15 y/o boy was arrested by police was captured on footage in Florida as his parents PLEAD and SOBBED UNCONTROLLABLY with the officers to let it go because he was "just a little kid" and that his comments to SHOOT UP his school was not "realistic" after he wrote on a GAMING SITE that he was going to bring his father's assault rifle to shoot at least 7 people!!

Bodycam footage shows the officers at the teen's Holly Hill home who said to have written on Discord "I Dalton Barnhart vow to bring my fathers M15 to school and kill 7 people at a minimum" as gamers immediately reported him.

He also posted that message on a gaming site that is not known. His username he used was FalconWarrior920.

The Seabreeze High School student was using a fake name was charged with threatening to discharge a destructive device and is now taken to juvenile jail

His comments were reported to the FBI as they contacted local police after tracing the IP to his username and to his home address

The teen admitted to posting that but said it was a "joke" as other gamers warned him against making such a threat saying it was a "serious problem" and shouldn't be joked about

The name, Dalton Barnhart was fake and the young man responsible insisted it was ajoke. but Joke or not, these comments are felonies under the law after America has undergone mass violence that is being seen across the country

Dailymail contacted Volusia County Sheriff's office about the case

The boy's mother plead with police as she burst into tears as she admits they DID have a GUN in the home but her son, standing next to her in shorts and orage socks had no access to it.

She is heard yelling "But he's just a little kid playing a video game" as the officer replies "How do we know he isn't going to be the next Parkland or the kid that shot up Sandy Hook? We don't know that"

She adds "This kids say stuff like this all the time. It's a joke to them. It's a game. He's just a little boy, he didn't do anything worng. He's not one of those crazy people out there doing stuff"

He is one of a number of men arrested in the wake of threats of mass shootings as young man were arrested one after another including 25 y/o Tristan Scott Wix, 22 y/o Brandon Wagshol and 20 y/o James Patrick Reardon

Do you think this kid should get juvie even if his comments were a "joke"?

Threats of murder should be taken seriously with the full force of the law.

No more of this "I was only Joking" crap.

You said it, you meant it, no take backs.

@ 15 Y/O he should easily know what's "Right from Wrong".

Lock him up.

He's 15. Next year he'd be wanting to drive and three years from now he could vote. He's not a kid and your reaction tells me enough about your parenting to assume you've enabled him enough to think threats like that are okay because mommy could never punish him.

Excuses to control free speech on the internet. He's just a kid. Adults say dumber things all the time. This should not have been taken so seriously.

He's still a kid. Not capable of making rational decisions. Even most 25 year olds are not fully matured. Read about the prefrontal cortex in case you don't know.

There are some things you do not joke about or say, threatening to kill people or shoot up a school is a clear no you do not joke about these two things.

He did/does deserve to be arrested.

Sounds like the mother finally realized shes a failure of a parent and is blaming video games....

Give the kid a year in prison, ban him from ever owning firearms, and take the guns away from any family members.

It's harsh, but this sort of shit shouldn't be joked about in this manner. Sometimes kids are little shits, I was an absolute fucking psycho from 12-15 so I kinda get where this kid is coming from - but with the amount of people getting killed in mass shootings, threats like this need to be investigated.

Ah, the armchair psychologist.

Lovely to see you here, saying shit anyone with a lick of knowledge on the subject knows is irrelevant at best and deceptively wrong at worst.

Shove your armchair shrink crap. He's more than old enough to know that saying "I'm gonna shoot up my school" in light of recent events is both in bad tastes and likely to be taken very seriously by law enforcement. He needs actual consequences and maybe he'll ahve some sense knocked into him. Lord knows his parents didn't seem to do a good job of it.

Even if he WAS joking, if you dont have enough sense to know that making these types of jokes IN AN AGE WHERE MASS SHOOTINGS ARE THE NORM, then I dont know what to tell ya. That shit would have been highly inappropriate 20 years ago, but to do it now is just incredibly tone-deaf and brain-dead.

First of all, kids ARE capable of making rational decisions. They should be given more leeway when they dont, but saying they cant is infantizing them. The boy is 15; not 5.

Secondly, 15 is WELL past the age where you should know better than to make jokes about committing mass murder. I dont know what kind of kid YOU were, but my peers & I knew not to say psycho shit like that when we were in grade school.

Yep. If someone made a post on here that they were going to "shoot up their school" or whatever I would be immediately reporting it as a serious threat and the relevant authorities can track down who you are. I'm not taking the risk of having a mass shooting that I could have prevented on my conscience.

Precisely. Its actually disturbing that someone would defend this kids actions as something we shouldnt take seriously. Like, the fuck? Do you not realize how often this shit actually happens?

Actually it's an M14 variant. Or it could be an Anti-tank mine. Or it could also be the General Officer's variant of the M1911 pistol. Or a half track, or an Italian Tank.

@Crazyman93, Her response says a lot about her parenting? How so? Your response says a lot about you as a person. Apparently you judge people based on what you see and *not* the actual context of what is said.

Clearly the mother knows that the kid was wrong. "She's just a little kid" is just the plea from a horrified mother, knowing that her son did something so horrible. What? You think she shouldn't show emotions? Cry? Should she not care??

No you didn't. You also managed to be completely wrong since none of things listed are an AR Platform weapon.

In lieu of the fact that these were probably not serious threats, he should be punished, but maybe a wee bit of leiniency is called for. To be clear yes he should getnsome juivie, just not prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

I didn't list anything except the M15, the person who listed other stuff was, uh, you. Perhaps I should have said "modular weapon platform", but the stats say that the ArmaLite M15 and AR-10 (which most definitely is an AR-style weapon) are virtually identical, only differing in the cartridge, .223 Rem vs .308 Win.
