I don't disqualify discussion about the role of family (in fact I think that is the only way to address failing schools); more than armed guards, which is one approach to discuss, I think there should be officers at school or district levels monitoring social media - there are sophisticated ways to flag key words and concepts, and that has been shown to be a strong predictor of problems.

No, there is only one group of American citizens that spares no effort, every time, to block discussion of an obviously relevant topic. When talking about gun violence, access to guns can't be ignored, if a serious effort is really contemplated.

And this has nothing to do with some "ilk". Everyone here promoting gun control did the same with every mass shooting, long before Trump. There is only one side of this discussion constantly looking to take tragedy and politicize it. To prevent examination of gun access. To promote anti-immigration rhetoric. And now, most amazingly, to try to discredit the Russia investigation. That's a comical reach.

Demonstrating an interest in politics far above the safety of our schools and children.
