[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, every rationale possible is being used by the PPs in this thread to excuse the gun owners and their kid (the shooter) passing the blame to anyone else.[/quote]

I don't see anyone excusing anyone. Explanations are not the same thing as excuses.[/quote]

This is a meta-excuse.[/quote]

Avoiding all explanations is the same as throwing up your hands and saying there is no way to prevent this from happening in the future. Problems need to be diagnosed so solutions can be found.

Actually that video posted a few pages back was interesting. The interview guest was the former chief of the Detroit police department and of Detroit public schools police. (FTR, he said the latter job was way more stressful.) One thing he said they did was embed officers undercover on social media to monitor what kids were saying. He said they stopped several bad acts. If an undercover officer read anything concerning, they had officers at the kid's home the same day. Sometimes a kid was suicidal, sometimes a danger to others, other times neither but parents were made aware of a kid who was struggling and needed help.[/quote]
