        But would it have stopped him from buying a gun? Or using one he had? My understanding is that you can’t lock someone up for something you think they may do in the future.

        If he had been Brown skinned they would have pursued more aggressively.

        The resources were't there but this president wants a new nuclear bomb. Maybe the bigger picture really, finally needs to be looked at. We can take care of each other if we can show each other that we care about each other. We don't need a new nuclear bomb.

        Sad but true. No one wanted to see the truth until it was almost too late, then the FBI failed to catch the Hail Mary call.

        This is the public defender’s defense? To blame the crime on someone not stopping this cowardly sinister inexcusable attack? That’s not your job-to put blame on police agencies & others for not stopping the #FloridaShooting. If you want to blame, blame the ability to get an AR-15

        Where was the Super? When I went to school bad behavior got a trip down the hall to visit with him. Maybe he could have offered some guidance, or maybe could see he was an accident ready to happen.

        There isn’t one in our military that works for abuse so what can we ever expect from our lousy school systems that never have enough money with over crowded classes while the 2% have private security and expensive lawyers?
