" Americans should not be misled. The problem is individual access to high-
powered weaponry, not just mental illness. There is no indication the Uvalde, Texas, shooter sought mental health counseling. There’s no evidence better services would have prevented this particular slaughter."This little snippet is exactly why nothing will ever happen to fix the issue of school shootings. Let us dissect.
- Is there such a thing as low-powered weaponry when it comes to shooting up schools etc...? You can die from a round coming out of a .22 handgun.
- None of the weapons used were automatic weapons. It is never an Uzi, a modified AK47, Mac 10. It is always basic ass weapons that fire ONE round per trigger pull that is utilized by these psychopaths. Learn about firearms before you comment on firearms. The way a weapon LOOKS doesn't have anything to do with its performance.
- Just because the shooter didn't seek mental health counseling doesn't mean he didn't need it. Do we know if Bob Berdella sought mental health counseling?
- How many people that actually are that fucked in the head, take it upon themselves to go seek help?
- Where were teachers, neighbors, peers, friends, and family when this psycho was doing psycho stuff around him (and yes there were A LOT of signs if you read comments from people that knew him). THEY are supposed to report him and get him help.
- "No evidence", SOooooooooo if there is no evidence that seeking out help from mental health professionals will help, then why is this article begging for more funding for these programs and blaming firearms? You can't have it both ways. Millions of Americans own firearms, yet don't go shoot up stores, schools etc. So to blame the gun instead of the shooter is INSANE
- With police sitting on their asses for an hour outside, did it matter what type of weapon was being used? See my previous post for all of the police department and school district failures that led to these kids being unprotected both before and during the shooting.
Honestly, how can you ask for more money for mental health in Mo/Ks in one take and then say that it probably wouldn't help prevent shootings in another, in the same freaking article? The writer is soooooooo conflicted when writing this that it truly gives you almost the perfect incite into the mind of a wacky leftist journalist.
Americans shouldn't be mislead but they also shouldn't be confused with twisted logic from a bumbling moron.
