I'm having a hard time withholding comments here, you know me I like to state my views here at teh gfy but the simple fact is as much as I try, I can't put myself in the shoes of anyone involved in the event. Not the victims, not the victim's dad, not the shooter, well, I think I can kinda see wtf there, but not his parents, not the multiple therapists seeing this guy, not the police interviewing him.

That leads me to think this is a completely random event and it's very difficult to legislate random acts. As much as I would like a way to keep guns from people like this, I'd be hard-pressed to change laws based on background checks, if those background checks are psychology based. The science isn't there.

I do think there is value in what crockett stated re: prison reform and I also think there is value in media reform. The media is very responsible here, well, a better way to say that is the media is very irresponsible here.
