The educational power structure is based on the idea that education is an unmitigated good that eliminates violence. When violent incidents occur in schools this creates cognitive dissonance for educational and leftist leaders. Instead of questioning their utopian thinking, they must find someone or something to blame....typically conservatives and the NRA. Logic flies out the window.... otherwise they would be forced to admit that their flawed thinking set up the conditions favoring violence by neutering the power of teachers to defend those in their care.

Seems maybe there's something deeper and more widespread there...“The problem isn't that Johnny can't read. The problem isn't even that Johnny can't think. The problem is that Johnny doesn't know what thinking is; he confuses it with feeling.”

Let's put it this way, If it turns out the kid was radicalized, or mentally deficient, it will never be reported on, and if it is, will be used in someway to further the interest of gun control.
Already being reported on. See http://www.foxnews.com/us/2018/02/1...-suspect-reportedly-showed-warning-signs.html , and click through to all of the various linked sources. Multiple students saying to multiple, (apparently) independent media outlets that they all thought that this specific kid would do something like this; additionally, he'd been expelled, and the administration had e-mailed staff warning that he'd brought ammunition to school.

The kid was a known quantity, but nobody did anything meaningful about it.

Just like the kid in our neighborhood who brought an actual firearm to school... personally haven't heard anything else about it.

What can be done, legally that is? I'm truly curious how something is done without being a police state.

Cannot vouch for the validity of this picture or the post above it, but I do recognize the faces of the characters on his tshirt.

Watched a blonde lady on Fox last night say (Well if this kid showed all these signs couldn't they have just got a restraining order). With that kind of thinking she should have just protest fire drills.
