As someone who studies crime: OBVIOUSLY we need to look at guns. Full stop. No ifs ands or buts about it.
BUT just looking only at guns is missing the point.
These people need to be placed somewhere if all they aspire to do is murder people. We need to build places for these people. and find a way to pay for it with tax payer money so that the burden is not on families. Most of which have tried for years with these fucked up people.
Jmo but these individuals have proven time and time and time again they aren’t like us. And in most cases will never be. They Cannot assimilate or they refuse to and they are run by hatred. Injustice and grievance collectors fueled by hate.
If that sounds harsh I don’t care. If they are stuck in a fucking loony bin, I don’t care. I’d rather save the hundreds they would kill. And since we can’t force people to get help, take their meds, grow up, etc…send them somewhere they can maybe get their damned heads right and have a chance at a life or they can you know be permanent residents of these places. Very few of these people are schizophrenic or similar. Most are just pieces of shit.
