Re: Parkland Shooting
We all bitch about politicians getting nothing done, but this thread is filled with the same talking point mumbo jumbo.
Instead of talking past each other, is it possible to say your top 3 concepts to reduce what is clearly at epidemic levels?
mine are
mandatory mental health screenings as part of selective service enrollment. This would be hugely controversial, and I don't know if my thought is true, but I am willing to bet that the majority of these type shooters are young males between 16 and 22
2nd, excluding active military, raise the age for gun ownership and purchase to 21.
3rd, every school district should be required to have a written prevention plan available to parents and students. If a district believes gun free zones are the best prevention then that is part of their plan, If a district believes that prevention is best accomplished by 2 armed guards plus concealed carry for teachers, then that is part of their plan. Regardless each school district should be required to post it, and have community approval.
That would be my first 3 steps. anyone else?
