<p>Podcaster Megyn Kelly slammed the family members of the suspected Highland Park shooter and said they need to &#8220;be a better parent&#8221; because &#8220;our society depends on you.&#8221;</p>
<p>During Wednesday&#8217;s Sirius XM &#8220;The Megyn Kelly Show&#8221; <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izvtTKY6B4s">podcast</a>, the host spoke with Chicago-based columnist John Kass about the Independence Day tragedy. Kelly <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izvtTKY6B4s">claimed</a> that society is often hesitant to scrutinize mass shooters&#8217; families, and maybe reversing that tendency would stop future massacres.</p>
<p>&#8220;Well, it got me thinking, maybe we&#8217;re putting, maybe we&#8217;re too reluctant to take a hard look at the families who produce these mass shooters,&#8221; the host said. &#8220;If your son is a sociopath, that&#8217;s one thing. You can&#8217;t therapize him out of it.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;But if your son is somebody who was, a well child in terms of his brain chemistry,&#8221; she added. &#8220;And got bullied or just didn&#8217;t fit in. And became reclusive and became obsessed with online sites like 4-Chan or whatever it is, and you, in this case, understood he was suicidal as recently as 2019.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;And then you assist him in getting a firearm [as has been <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/officials-reveal-how-highland-park-shooter-was-able-to-buy-guns-despite-threatening-to-kill-everyone">reported</a>],&#8221; Kelly continued. &#8220;And the uncle, who I guess reportedly may have lived with them&#8230;He comes out and says &#8216;there were no signs&#8217; that would make him. Bulls***! Be a better uncle. Be a better parent. Our society depends on you. Our free society can only do so much.&#8221;</p>
<p>The former Fox News anchor added that we as a society can &#8220;do more,&#8221; but &#8220;there are limits to our powers.&#8221; She noted how the family of the alleged <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-highland-park-mass-shooting-suspect-confesses-to-firing-more-than-80-shots-at-parade-attendees-prosecutors-say">shooter</a> and needed to &#8220;pay attention.&#8221;</p>
<p>Kass replied that back in the day, when he was a young boy surrounded by Greek immigrants, there was a &#8220;feature&#8221; in this country called &#8220;shame.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Shame was the overriding cudgel when I grew up,&#8221; the columnist noted. &#8220;Shame was a real thing, and not only for Greeks but for everybody in this country. Like &#8216;what will the neighbors say&#8217;&#8230;I think that we&#8217;ve forgotten that.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;That shame can inspire people to behave better and judgment is required,&#8221; he added.</p>
