When these mental health issues are combined with drug use, all the violent video games, the breakdown in our society on all levels, including but not limited to faith based beliefs and the celebration of human life, there is NO moral thread to hold us together as a Nation. We have always had guns in this country...we have always had mental health issues, so what is different??? Drug use condoned by government, abandonment of any form of a belief system in this country, total breakdown of any kind of morals or ethics or integrity or accountability. This entire society is peppered with individuals evolving into ruthless, vindictive, totally emotionless zombie like creatures.....they will commit the unthinkable, against society, however they can manage it...by what ever means possible. If this boy had received the mental health care he obviously needed, he could have had access to an entire foot locker of weapons, and he would not have used them....dont look at the guns as the offending part of the equation...look at the mental health issues that have been ignored.
