....As for mental health and gun confiscation, Canada and US have regulations for public safety within constitutional rights and don't appear to want to change them. We accept the consequences.
With regard to the recent Florida school shooting? Thirty-nine police calls to the home, many for violent reported offenses isn't enough to put a background check flag on someone? Many reports while he was a minor you say? That state will prosecute as an adult at least down to the age of fourteen. How can we assume this is a mental health problem, most of these criminals don't have the courage to live. This felon is breaking new ground, and I'd bet he turns out to be competent. Maybe, we should reject incompetence rather than accept consequences, otherwise some logic will obligingly turn the blame back to the inanimate object. We shouldn't call political opportunities acceptable consequences in the hope that emotion will carry the agenda.
