“Removing insane people, such as this shooter, from the population in advance, will.”

That seems to be a proper solution to some of these type things. Problem I find with it is that certain people are going to set “standards” that determine sanity, and those certain people will have their own agendas, which could lead to the “removing” of people they find opposing their particular politics.

The solution is concealed carry, maybe even mandatory concealed carry for teachers and other adults on school campuses. Better than watching a lunatic slaughter kids while a teacher can do about nothing.

I don’t like the idea of “removing” people from society that have not yet committed a crime by evaluating their potential for committing a crime. I think there may have been a novel or movie made using that theme.

With concealed carry, the social misfits will be “removed” from society when they pull a stunt like this fellow did and a good guy with a gun eliminates the threat.

The solution is concealed carry,

I’m not sure that’s the answer because I’m not sure I want a bunch of people who took a few courses on weapon safety etc shooting during such a chaotic scene/situation. I kinda believe you need military or police experience to be able to handle a situation like that. I’m gonna get flamed for saying this but I believe that you should have to be 25 or be presently in the military to be able to buy an assault weapon. I’m sorry I just don’t like the idea of some 19 yr old punk getting an AR-15. But even though I would want that I wouldn’t want it done because it’d give the liberals an inch...and when they have an inch.....
