Look: I'm a community college student myself.

These mass shootings on college campuses bother me. I just don't think we do any good focusing in the wrong direction.

The problem isn't the particular weapon of choice used to carry out these massacres, it's the depraved mindset that makes one even contemplate such a course of action.

Did you see that thread in GD? It sounds like the shooter was BRAGGING about what he was planning on doing on 4chan yesterday.

No one took him seriously at the time.
