As long as people have easy access to weapons of war, these shootings will happen, whether we have institutions for the mentally ill or not.

Adequate mental health care will mitigate the problem, but the problem remains easy access to guns.

Sad, but this sums it up. We have gun crisis and a mental health crisis.


We can and should bring back mental institutions.

There is obviously a huge need for them.


Even if we had institutions, very few of these shooters would end up in them BEFORE they decided to shoot people. Severely mentally I’ll people are mostly NOT violent.


100% of random mass shootings happened after deinstitutionalization in the U.S.

Yup, common denominator in this is always men.


We need to ban men.

And there’s usually a domestic violence background that was known and/or ignored.

At this point I just want all civilian firearms gone. For the past 2 decades I just wanted reasonable gun reform, but I’ve lost any compassion for anyone’s personal argument why they feel they should be able to responsibly own one. Nope, I don’t care, I’m just done. The “responsible” gun owners should have put more pressure on the gun lobby to get their hobby in line before it spiraled this far out of control instead of caring more about making sure they aren’t inconvenienced in any way to obtain a gun.

So we need to just be done with this garbage.

And I’m tired of the argument about how the bad guys would still have guns and it won’t do anything. Can you imagine if we had reformed firearm ownership back in the 90s? There would be way fewer guns circulating today and police would have had authority to confiscate all guns that didn’t go through rigorous licensing/insuring.

This. All of this.


Same, get rid of them, I don’t care about any of the arguments for owning them.

The rat race in America is just infuriating! Time to move to Europe.

So are the people who value guns more than life, peace, safety, children. A legal argument could be made on constitutional grounds that the pursuit of happiness is being thwarted by firearms.


I agree, nation is dying. We already dismiss the gun/murder epidemic in large U.S. cities like Chicago, Baltimore, Detroit, New Orleans...etc. Now there are people who want to dismiss stories like this one. Sad.
