How about the FIB, LE, mental health people be pressured to do their jobs and prevent stuff like this from happening in the first place?

Absolutely. Colin obviously dropped a few balls. Buying an AR-15 for a 14 year old who has been talking about shooting up a school is probably not a great idea. "Hey Bobby, if you'll just stop playing with matches in your closet for a month, I'll buy you a flamethrower!

Of course, I grew up with a dad. A dad who had guns, taught me to respect them and use them safely. I had my own at a young age. When my Grandson turned 2, I bought him a Henry rifle. He will get it when my son in law decides he is ready. I can't wait. But if there are any signals that he isn't ready, I will. When he's 14, I expect his firearms will live in dad's gun safe.

The problem is that in today’s world of divorce and baby daddies, the dad doesn’t live under the same roof as the mom at least 50% of the time which results in a race to the bottom to see which household can spoil Junior the most.

This completely kills the old “united front” model of parenting; the kids know it and they play it to the HILT.
