I dont understand why so many do not want to address the real problem?

We will. We'll do it legally, like Australia did a decade ago and New Zealand did after Christchurch. We're going to get your guns, now my friend. No worries, we'll leave you with your spider man sling shot.

The left LOVES the idea of pricing things out of the market as a way of modifying behavior. Ok fine,......lets have cable tv, internet access, and cell phone data use carry an astronomical cost to it. I actually HATE this sort of thing as a free market guy. Tell you what though. Wouldnt be long and we would have a much healthier and happier society.

Republicans have resisted every attempt to establish a universal health care system which provides mental health services.

Republicans also unanimously voted against Obamacare which mandated that insurance companies give coverage for mental health services.

The issue is forced State Institutionalization. Something even JFK opposed.

Why dont people want to address the root problem which is WHAT drives a person like Ramos to pick up a weapon and kill children ? What caused a Black Supremacist domestic terrorist like Darrel E Brooks to run down all those people, children included , at the Christmas massacre in Waukesha? Dylan Roof shooting all those people IN CHURCH? On and on and on. Would stricter gun laws help? Maybe,...but I doubt it. They would simply use a knife, a car, a bomb like the Jihadists in Boston did, ect ect ect. The actual root cause is what needs to be addressed.

But I am too close to the truth, so you cant.

Well,...in this most recent case I guess you could say Latino's did. A young Latino man in a mostly Latino town killed a bunch of Latino kids.

And with the Democrat party putting children under house arrest for 2 years, and shutting down all private businesses that support social activities, ... they have taken away all options from the young, except for the internet.

You are too young to remember, but these kind of shootings started a long time ago in 1966, starting with the shooter in the tower on the UT campus in Austin, Texas, and to your credit, he did not use an AR-15. https://www.pbs.org/independentlens/documentaries/tower/

But, to sum it up, On August 1, 1966, Charles Whitman rode the elevator to the top floor of the University of Texas Tower in Austin, Texas and opened fire, holding the campus hostage for 96 minutes. When the gunshots were finally silenced, the toll included 16 dead, three dozen wounded, and a shaken nation left trying to understand what had happened. Charles Whitman shot and killed his wife and mother before he climbed the tower with various sniper rifles and handguns.

Whitman was an Eagle Scout and a Marine Soldier, and really never had a past of criminal behavior or violence of any kind.

He was distraught over his parents getting a divorce, and just snapped one day and did what he did.

We are never going to know why any human goes postal and just starts shooting people.

Sure there are some people that will show trends of having violent, threatening, or criminal behaviors.

But, so many people carrying out these random shootings today were fine one minute, obviously snapped, brain farted, or whatever, and killed over a dozen people without even caring if they live or die themselves.

BUT THAT DOES NOT MEAN- DO NOTHING!

There are a lot of common sense laws, that deal with background checks, the way guns are sold and bought, magazine sizes, cool-off- times, licensing, RED FLAG LAWS, Bullet TYPES, that every responsible police force in the nation, the EMERGENCY DOCTORS that have to deal with shootings, AND THE PUBLIC AT LARGE would like to see the government do THAT MOST PEOPLE EVERYWHERE ALREADY AGREE ON- to help deter and even prevent altogether some of these shootings.

Don't try to be political right now- Try to be sensible- try to be helpful!-- try to show some empathy for the families of these children.
