    Thank you. It is where I went to school and where I grew up. I lost a couple of friends. It has been rough.

    Dumbest post of the thread... Your post is delusional...

    Now Obama wants mass shootings to happen... Stop with your blind hatred for Obama... It makes you say crazy shit...

    Also, to say that Obama is at fault for the lack of Mental Healthcare in this country is even more delusional.

    Kennedy tried to fix it and Republicans never funded his reform...

    I saw him take his opportunity to grandstand. He is doing the same thing he blames Obama for.

    He is not the president of the United States. Also, this is in response to Obama's politicizing the tragedy. Basically, he said "Fuck off you piece of shit, this isn't about guns" He's right

    coming from someone who has politicized every discussion about guns with Obama blame, this doesn't surprise me. When guns are used to kill innocent people, then the logical reaction is to discuss guns...but that would mean you must get very defensive and post 10 guns are good videos right?

    30 minutes after the tragedy happens, Obama spends 80% of his speech on gun control. Obama still hasn't spoke up about the Christians being singled out, nor the hero that put himself before the "CRAZY MADMAN" that actually pulled the trigger.

    wrong but predictable....this was a horrible tragedy and weapons were misused. I commend the president for his speech and believe his concerns are valid.

    Its horrible because as far as these mass shootings are concerned, this is probably the single most common profile of the shooter. I knew a kid with aspergers who worked at Petco a while back, for some reason he got offended then called the store stating he would shoot everyone. The police came and questioned him, he was fired but then nothing else happened, overprotective mothers overprotecting in a society where this kind of behavior is just "lashing out".

    And it is almost completely ignored due to people not wanting a stigma to aspergers and autism. And they want to take the time to repost some austrailian comic and harp about Gun Control destroying this country.

    Well, it is what it is.

    Yep... It's really sad because mental illness has been the #1 common denominator of all these tragic events and it's usually ignored.
