    It’s so cool living in the USA and getting to see these headlines on a weekly basis. No notes. Country’s doing great. /s

        There’s mixed evidence of whether or not mass shootings have a contagion effect, that people who are already “primed” see this shit on tv and decide that today’s the day.

        Or it could just be chance.

        But maybe, here’s an idea, we don’t let people who make terroristic threats have guns. I don’t care about what kind of gun, if you credibly threaten to murder a bunch of people, no gun for you.

          By and large, I agree. And I also know that the kids that do this have been struggling and need quality mental health care and home intervention, long before it gets to this point.
