'There's This Really Consistent Pathway': How Society Can Stop Mass Shooters Before They Act

[myccrider]

7. My thought exactly.

People in other developed countries have mental health problems, too (and many probably have better mental health resources than we do, but not all of them). The huge elephant in the room is WHY mass murders are so rare in these other countries! The glaring difference between them and us is easy access to nearly unregulated mass murdering firearms.

I agree that those who are suicidal need help, seriously, whether or not they’re thinking of taking others with them. IMO, though, control and regulation of access to all guns will do more to prevent the next school shooting and the next gun suicide and the next family fight that ends in murder and, and, and.
