Mass murderers are not neccesarilly targetting people but an idea or a location.
Why would someone shoot up a school of kids?
In my opinion, it is the school (which really translates into the school system ) that is being targetted.
Even bullying. The school (system) didn’t protect the shooter.
I think investigators should shift their focus from a person to the location or program that was targetted.
A team of doctors, a review board. It should never be one person.
What worries me is his going along with his FBI’s “precrime” social media searching, particularly now that conservative views are being labeled as problematic.
Even a ‘review board’ wouldn’t be safe from ‘political getback’ decisions.
And what legal recourse would an innocent person have?
Set up a system. Look the police had 27 incidents about the School shooter, The Dayton shooter was expelled because he wrote a list. I think any board should be made up of a couple of doctors, police, at least 2 NRA members or GOA members. No way should this be a casual decision, but the members need to understand that lives on all sides are at stake.
You’re making the erroneous assumption that ‘the system’ would actually work to disarm the nutjobs.
Not at all.
The ‘system’, as designed, would ensure the left could disarm anyone they want at any time they choose.
Ask the Venezuelans (and cubans, and mainland chinese and ...) how many lives have been lost vs a few nutjob shooters...
Most shrinkydinks think even wanting to own a gun is a sign of mental illness...
Then change it! Good God, this is America. Get active and make sure people are protected. I would prefer we had mental institutions to take care of these nut jobs but the same problems would apply to that.
Precisely.
The long march through the institutions is largely complete.
Relying on ANY of those institutions to ‘make sure people are protected’ is servile infantilism at best.
A team of doctors, a review board. It should never be one person.
ya, I don’t trust any of that.
Name one group of doctors or a government review board you trust with your safety.
Yep... Thought so... I won’t be 86 until November...
At some point the swamp redefines lunatics as Christians and dangerous hotheads as Conservatives or Constitutionalists.
Also, the psychiatrist labeled the Texas shooter as “no danger to himself or society.”
