[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gun policies are the most readily available policy lever but hardly anyone likes to discuss the root causes of these shootings, namely, the culture of masculinity and glorification of violence. And when these discussions are had too often they are over simplified. It is well documented that many of these school shooters were bullied, had relationship problems with women, and did not meet societal definitions of "masculine." These shooters are trying to reclaim masculinity through violence, and we really should look more broadly at issues of gender expectations and the consider the many boys/young men who are bullied and outcast for not fitting in and the consequences it has.[/quote] They were as likely to be bullies as bullied. You are leaving that part out. [/quote]
