true true, but when was the last time you opened a gun safe with power tools? How about any safe? Since when is that an exercise in running to the garage, grabbing the drill and bits (if available), and 2 minutes later you have weapons?

I said there was no doubt in my mind that she would have locked them up, and that the outcome would have been different, not that people wouldn't have been killed. Id like to believe that far less would be killed, if any at all, since he wouldn't have had immediate access to such dangerous firearms.

Clearly, he was a mental case who snapped. I totally agree that we should be looking at mental health and helping those in need better than we are, BUT, any kid like this until he commits a mass shooting is innocent until proven guilty. Up until then, hes just a withdrawn, or messed up kid, and this kid came from wealthy white suburbia, so im sure were I to meet him 3 weeks ago, I might have written him off as a poor little rich kid. Tell me you would have done different? In 90% im sure I and if you agree, we, would have been right.

There is no prediction or easy safe guard, and locking up the weapons could have made a major difference.

That may have changed his weapons choice, changed his target choice, limited his victim to his mother and himself ect. Of course yes, he could have built an explosive and set it off in the school, but all these ideas are about making it harder to take the easiest route.
