        Have we truly asked the right questions here? Why did this fella do the shooting? Of course it’s heinous, but why do our young people feel the need to snap? Their parents suck for not parenting, but how do we know this kid wasn’t bullied and felt this was his only way out?

        Sadly, attention to educating our students does not include Conflict Resolution or Anger-Management or De-escalation. Resolution should NEVER include guns!

        And ultimately, let’s get to the root cause of the problem! Why do kids snap? We had bullies back in the day, but we didn’t bring guns/knives to school...identify what has changed and we can intervene and eliminate student violence!

        We hope we can. We have to remove guns, change the climate that creates bullying and also have better educators. Violence didn’t just start it’s been around a long time and so has bullying. Neither will go away until we tell the truth about both.

        You take away the guns, and it will be knife attacks, or the new norm vehicular assaults. Do we take away knives and cars too? Im curious to know the number of guns that save lives from vicious attacks versus these lone wolf single shooter incidents?

        From my readings from other sites. Students reported this kid behavior numerous times to school officials and still nothing happen til something bad happened. Apparently he had a hit list in 8th grade, someone found it cause their name was on it and they reported it but nothing

        Factions in the USA who seek to reduce it's own population for greedy survival reasons! They don't care who's eliminated, as long as there's less competition for resources!

        Things like this happen and people are angry, grief stricken and searching for answers. Amid public speculation, the real search for answers start at home. Why did this happen? What warning signs were missed?

        This problem will never be solved as long as NRAs influences the Administration who wants their backing more than saving lives. These killings are on Trump.

        The "owner" of that firearm needs to be arrested for failing to secure the firearm. Not listening to the sobbing story. If you own a firearm and just leave on the table or in a closet, loaded no trigger lock. Just plain irresponsible. That's where the law needs refining....
