Nope, if he were truly a threat to self or others he'd be hospitalized whether voluntarily or not. He wasn't.
Maybe you were just being sloppy in your wording, but the fact of the matter is that he OBVIOUSLY was a threat to himself or others.
The bottom line is that the authorities' evaluation of him was not able to prove beyond a reasonable doubt, or whatever criteria they use in deciding whether to hospitalize people making violent, terrorist threats, that he was in fact a danger to himself or others. But as noted above, in contradiction to your assertion, he certainly was a very serious threat to himself and others in reality.
Regardless of whether they were able to conclude in their (2 hour?) evaluation that he was clinically a threat to the point of involuntarily hospitalizing him, his father should have known it was dangerously irresponsible to buy him an AR-15 and to have it available for him to actually commit the heinous crime that he did. I think most states would deem that criminal negligence. It was stupidity in the extreme.
