    Not much difference in behavior between a kid growing up nowadays & whatever era you’d like to compare it to

    However, with the Internet & social media, you are now constantly connected to information that is readily available & also constantly connected to your peers.

    A kid can get bullied all day long 24/7. This is a new era problem. The home used to be a safe zone & a break from the world. Now all it is is physical shelter. There is no break mentally unless you have control/discipline in your life. And if that kid has bad parents on top of it then forget about it dude.

    What could possibly go wrong with a troubled kid w/ a poisoned mind surfing the Internet trying to find purpose in his life?

    That is 100% the background of all these shootings I read about

    More proof nowhere is safe. % of the population with mental illness is much too high to control. Humans do not value life anymore. Say what you want about religion, media, video games, social media, the internet in general. People have changed. Access to guns is too easy but probably not to blame here. No sign this guy would have been disqualified from ownership even with background checks which 97% of citizens support. Banning all firearms should not and will not ever be a reality in America. The harsh reality no one wants to hear is that there is no solution. Doesn't mean we can't do better but this is as much a part of society in America as gang violence is in the inner city.

    Why are you saying this was mental illness? A guy can be in perfect health, get fired from his job of 20 years for no reason and then snap and make a bad decision and start shooting. That doesn't mean he is mentally ill.

    Mentally stable people don't kill people indiscrimantly. If he killed his supervisor or the guy tat work hat he despised it is one thing. Killing people is wrong, killing people for no reason equates to lack of reason and mental weakness/illness.

    Exactly. He could have killed 3 people with a baseball bat or 5 people with a knife. When you can't control your temper you will find a weapon to kill.

    kidding aside, "sensible gun control" that even I can get behind is outlawing "high capacity" magazines/clips....

    word is shooter had extended magazines..... now that shit is unnecessary for legitimate self/home defense, sporting use, or hunting use, and is leading to more deaths in a lot of these situations.....

    Agree, and it was sensible 10 years ago. NRA has a death grip on this countries second amendment and they’re holding the gop hostage.

    Sadly, without nra involvement I beleieve there would be strong support for this resolution across the aisle but lobbyists apparently dictate policy

    he was a public utilities worker who got fired recently. walked into the public utilities part of building 2 and started firing. friends back home said they're saying 14 dead on local news and 1 cop shot but he's okay. bulletproof vest saved him.

    Like clock work and it's a tragedy!!!

    Something to consider - as with human population growth more and more nut bags will be born from that..

    Just like Natural disaster deaths that occur, the more land humans take up the greater chances of a Natural disaster like a twister or hurricane can and will take out many more and make the news..

    Something to consider and that we all should take into consideration first with each catastrophic event that happens in the future..

    I work in the City Hall building next to the building where the shooter was. We were in lockdown for over an hour. For a while there were confusion over where the shooter was whether in my building or next door.

    Guns are banned in these buildings. Still didn't prevent the shooter obviously from bringing his in. We may have to make changes to our audit offices as we also have a Fraud, Waste and Abuse division that sometimes will recommend firing some employees for wrongdoing.

    Anyway, we had to mute our phones lest the shooter(s) hear alerts going off and bust/shoot the doors down. We would had been sitting ducks. But some had no way to protect or fight back today.

    Yup sad state
    But it's the way people treat each other that is the root cause.
    See every penetrating mass shooter
    Background bullies or complained about being treated unfairly. Listen to people
    Treat people with respect
    Show love
    Is the real solution...but unfortunately this will not happen.

    after recently blowing up my whole fukkin' front yard with "superior fire power" to that possessed by mr. gopher, I am now confident to amp it up a bit if I see any mother fukkers that look like this latest killer even step fukkin' foot on my property with a firearm either in their possession or reasonably suspected by me to be in their possession.......

    This shooting motive of "being fired from his job" is similar to the one that happened in Illinois.
    There's always a motive behind mass shootings, either being a victim of bullying, fired from your job and racism. Solving these issues can reduce mass shootings. Increasing the gun purchase age from 18 to 21 can also reduce mass shootings in schools.

    no.

    these kids get the guns from parents who dont secure their firearms or hide them. we need to make it harder for mental people to acquire firearms even if they have served this country, so when they do shit like this we can just execute them on live tv.
