Sorry about the spelling mistakesJim
There is some sense in what you are staying !
Congratulations for having a dip at engaging an answer.
Do you realise that it's cheaper for Governments to let these people out into society, and mop up after they make a bloody bid mess.
Governments, both yours and nine, have a lot to answer for. They do not debrief War Veterans enough, but even so it's a whole lot more than hey did at the end of WW1 and WW2, and I still remained puzzled as to why similar mass shootings didn't happen then, or wee we being "Shielded" from the truth ?
It may well be the drug problem, which has the effect of frying the brains of any basic logic, especially with some of the crap that is available these days. This stuff in a person who needs some help, after returning from fighting, has added explosive mix.
Then again the massager of al those poor little kids, a while Bach just blows that theory out of the water.
Where are we heading as a society ?
That's the bit that scares me
It depends. I grew up in Mental Institutes. My mother was a hospital administrator and I was forced to go up there and play with kids with issues to help acclimate them.I remember when I was a kid, (long time ago) there were Insane asylums.
Families,would see to it that family members, that couldnt function in society, were put somewhere that could take care of them, and they werent out in society ,where they couldnt cope, or take care of themselves. Or harm people.
Does that sound cruel, or just the opposite.
Did political correctness cause us to stop that, and just ignore these people?
I dunno.
I guess its easier just to blame guns.

Now we know Austins problem, he never new what NORMAL was.It depends. I grew up in Mental Institutes. My mother was a hospital administrator and I was forced to go up there and play with kids with issues to help acclimate them.
We need healthcare reform. We need people that are a danger to themselves and others to be segregated, and we need a system that supports that.
I had an odd childhood to say the least.Now we know Austins problem, he never new what NORMAL was.
BUT that's ok as any thing out there that is normal usually does NOT include me!
