Why the system failed to stop Nikolas Cruz — and could do it again

Andrew Pollack calls the Parkland, Fla., school shooting “the most avoidable mass murder in American history.” Avoidable because of how the system refused to react rationally to years of warning signs about Nikolas Cruz.

And the book Pollack, whose teen daughter was one of Cruz’s victims, has written with Max Eden shows that the same failure could occur almost anywhere in America.

Excerpted in Monday’s Post, “Why Meadow Died” reveals educational records, like teacher daily diaries, tracking Cruz’s flagrantly psychotic behavior from an early age.

Because in the La-La Land of liberal rule, whack jobs who used to be locked safely away in an insane asylum have the right to be roaming free . . .

For leftards, better that scores of innocents die than to allow one psychotic idiot student to suffer from poor self-esteem.

Spot on.

Add to that, the Leftists political use of all of it. These “roaming mentally ill” and young HS psyche cases having their record expunged, in defiance of common sense and public safety.

Democrats can’t win on merit, but on chaos, racism, robbing the people of God, jobs, cash and American wealth.

Destroying the young is Key.

It’s safe to say for six-plus years, they had a chance to put him away in a guarded facility, and failed on a minimum of 300 chances. Cops, mother, school system, etc....they all failed.

But here’s the real thought to ponder...there’s at least 10,000 kids out there like this punk, and they are still walking around and plotting their moment.

Thank you Barack Hussein Obama, thank you Michelle Obama, thank you Broward County Sheriff, Scott Israel, thank you Congresswoman, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Thank you Parkland High School teachers, Administrators of Broward County, Florida, Public School Districts, thank you Miami based FBI personnel, thank you every Democrat Congress Critter in Florida....everyone of you Democrat, scum & vermin humanity, has the blood of slaughtered, innocent, teenage high school students and dedicated teachers.

Everytime I think of this tragedy...I cry, knowing how easy it could have been prevented by these low life Democrats starting with Obama on down the line!!! Mr. Pollack is right on the money...I feel the pain, agony, open wound of forever sorrow for you, every time you mention your beautiful lost daughter, Meadow...thank you all Democrats of Broward County, Florida....I pray you all end up in hell for all eternity for what you allowed to happen...and....don’t preach to me about gun control foolishness...do something about the roving nutcases you created or abetted!!! You should hang your Democrat heads in shame asking God for forgiveness!!! Oh...excuse me, I forgot...most of you Democrats are Godless!!!

Maybe if the useless Eff Bee Eye had heeded the numerous warnings about this murderous punk the whole tragedy could have been avoided.

I actually think that twerp David Hogg is going to be the next homicidal maniac since he has been made in to a laughing stock by the majority of clear thinking adults.
