The harsh truth is nothing can stop this, not a fucking gun ban, not fucking gun control, there's not a single thing you can do to stop people like this from killing people if they want to

But why do people want to do this?
In the 80s, we had less than 4 school shootings per year on average.
Last year we had 9.
Find the common cause and try to eliminate it.
Yes, it wont stop every future shootings, but it will reduce them.

Mental health issues + easy access to guns

Neither of these issues seem like they'll be fixed, so this is only going to continue to be normalized.

So why do we have so many mental health issues now?
Did they raise or are the numbers the same? Did we discover them earlier in the past? What can be done to discover them earlier and/or prevent them from going crazy?


Mental health problems are the way they are since they closed down the institutions. Now if we run into a mental health issue, they can be treated and held for 72 hours but then just released right after that. Unless they decide to bring institutions back, society has decided they are to be left on the streets or treated minimally.
