He was a 20 year old MAN. He wasn’t the school’s responsibility. Everyone knew that this person had mental health issues for years. He was under psychiatric care when he did this.
There is *nothing* that the school could’ve done from that standpoint. Just like they can’t do anything about a 40 year old terrorist deciding to shoot up kids. Or, the very real situation in China, where an adult decided to stab a bunch of kids.
What they could’ve done is had better security.
I just hate the ‘do something!’ crowd. Of course they never want to actually DO anything that will make a difference.
“What they could’ve done is had better security.”
Yes, how did he get in the school anyway? Did he just walk in?
A little worry niggling away in the back of my mind...
Beslan - (that school in Russia taken over by Muslims, where many children were killed).
The muslims could easily try something like that here, considering the wide-spread knowledge that our schools are “gun-free” zones. Of course we are all sure nothing like that could happen “here”, just as we are sure that beheadings could only happen “over there”.
Please let me be totally wrong.
