But we shouldn't be talking about stopping a killer after he has started shooting. We need to prevent the shooter from ever getting a firearm.

If there was a law in place that prevented this woman from having an assault rifle and multiple handguns in the first place - a simple law saying it is illegal to have firearms in a household where someone who has a diminished mental ability lives - would have prevented him from gaining access to firearms that day.

It's simple:
- Better healthcare for the mentally ill
- Better security at schools
- Restrictions on firearms aimed at preventing the mentally ill from getting hand guns and banning assault rifles.

It blows my fucking mind that his mother knew her child had problems, knew her child was a loner, yet saw nothing wrong with training him how to use an assault rifle or letting him lock himself up in the basement so he could play Call Of Duty all day long.

A simple law preventing his mother from having access to fire arms after the school assigned a head shrink to her kid could have prevented this.
