I completely agree with you. However if we were to make this an issue about the mental health system failing the guy (which it is) shooting is toast. Put it this way, the average non gun punter would look at it and think "What's easier, fixing the nation's mental health, or banning firearms?" I know what will be picked and they'll go ahead fix the problem not the cause of the issue, like they always do, because its easy not because its the right thing to do.

I see a friend has now come forward saying he had severe depression etc.
