May as well just have a mass shooting sticky.

Should that be an excuse to kill and maim innocent people? I, for one am sick of excuses, something more needs to be done. You can't go out in our country, without the possibility of not coming home? Does sound like a war zone.

It's been crazy for a while. Difficult to even keep track. I think there have been four this week.

What we need is a way to predict this kind of violence before it happens. Mopping up the mess helps no one. How do we get inside their heads to figure out what they're planning before they kill dozens of people? Freedom of speech is all well and good, but we need to know when someone is stockpiling weapons, etc. I'm sure that some people will complain about their rights, but you know what? In this day and age, my grandson's right to go to school without his parents being in fear for his life is more important than a gun owner's rights - and if that gun owner isn't trying to hide anything, it shouldn't be an issue.

You are literally waving a white flag to crazed mass shooters and condoning their unlimited access to weapons that will kill many more innocent Americans.

I think its time for actual vigilantism to make a comeback.

Throw in Adderall and other ADHD Meds we're giving them when their 9 years old.

Bet the 21yo in El Paso who is a College kid had done his share of Adderall and other Meds.
