From a forensic psychiatrist: How the media shouldn't cover a mass murder

[Are_grits_groceries]

4. Nowhere in the OP does it say anything about gun control.

He is talking about specific actions the media should take when covering them. He has studied many mass killers and has some idea what they watnt. Many do want to be the center of attention.

Congress will move on gun control when people back down the NRA and it's money. That won't be easy. There has to be an umbrella group that runs message after message against them. They have to be called out on their bullshit in every state.

Further more, gun control advocates have to decide what their goals are. Make them basic to begin with. Hammer them home. You have to make clear that nobody is coming for their guns. If you reach for too much, the effort will die completely.

People get frightened and then stampede at the mention of some rules. They fully believe that background checks will lead to more control over them because that's the message they get 24/7.
