First of all, this shooter isn't Adam Lanza. I'm not arguing about Adam Lanza. He is one shooter. One.
That case is not this case. It's not a chain reaction. Lanza didn't invent school shootings.
That said, my ONLY point is that I don't think it's OK to blame everyone else for "not doing enough beforehand" these acts of violence happen. Most people are intuitive, not clairvoyant.
Like I said earlier, it's been demonstrated time and again that, in the vast majority of cases, things were done. They were reported. Families and communities and strangers "saw something and said something." Experts intervened.
Other than being male and usually white, the other glaring similarity in almost all these mass school shootings is their age under 25, generally 15-19 years old and their access to firearms.
Welp. I'll agree with you in this way: Yes, let's be more diligent about acting on this problem, shall we?
Im NOT blaming everyone else. I have ZERO idea how you are getting that from me. It IS a chain reaction. Kids kill animals, they say they want to join military to kill people, etc. there are almost ALWAYS warning signs. There is no one to blame but the shooter...but WE as a country have to change how we handle this kind of stuff or it is never going to stop.
