    Being raised in America is not common to being raised in any other developed country.
    I don't disagree, but in what ways is it different? Identify them and maybe you've identified the problems. Guessing it's not video games.

    agree, neither money nor gun is sin, it's the evil-minded people who handle them commit all the crimes imho.

    Parenting. They give their kids whatever they want all their lives and the moment someone teases them or says no, they go killing.

    Adolescent white males? Why them? Often in small towns or affluent suburbs...

    Mental illness ironically seems to me to be over diagnosed and over treated. It goes from ADHD to bipolar to the next fad. Do all these kids really have this? I do not think so. So, yeah, some are over drugged. I also wonder about the notion of telling these kids there is something wrong with them, when maybe they do not think they have a problem until someone tells them they do. It kind of reminds me of my divorce. I had to go to a parenting as a divorced parent workshop. The guy told people not to put their kids in therapy due to the divorce. He said that tells kids that there is a problem with them. So maybe we need to start acting like all these disappointments, let downs... Are just a part of life.

    It all just scares me...

    You're a smart guy Blake I'm sure you can figure out how a kid of any decade would obtain a gun.
    Yeah i could do extensive research, but i don't care enough to. This is your thread and you're the self proclaimed gun expert so i figured I'd ask you.

    if you want to play the part of arrogant prick, why start this thread?

    you have to be on another level of mental re ation to even consider going on killing sprees

    even when life gets tough, you don't go on and kill innocent people, I mean you could kill yourself if you're really depressed, but going outside and showing your rage to innocent people? really?

    I was picked on when I was in HS, I didn't have great communication skills to talk back, but I never considered going on killing sprees

    Cool story from a Canadian...how did gun grabbing work out for you all recently?
    We have a load of guns in this country. America doesn't have a gun issue. It's a culture of violence that's the cause. Sorry, everyone outside looking in sees this.

    All my dwellings are above ground. Why are you so snarky?

    We're talking about people who already have mental conditions. Are you saying SSNs are more responsible than their actual mental conditions? I'm not prepared to take that leap blindly.

    Seriously.

    A guy with a mental condition is suicidal. He is put on meds. He commits suicide. Which is more likely to be the precipitating factor -- the meds or the condition that caused the suicidal thoughts in the first place?

    I'm not saying it's out of the realm of possibilitiy -- but your Avantelist basically ascribes all blame to meds.
    but were their mental conditions previously making them have violent thoughts and were they acting on these thoughts pre-medication. The list I posted simply points out these kids were on certain meds. Read the study I posted, it's long but very interesting.

    I'm not being arrogant and am having a discussion with everyone not asking stupid ing questions like yourself. Extensive research on how a kid gets a gun? Stupid ing question. They already own it, steal it, borrow it, or buy it. Nothing has changed in the last 100 years on ways for a kid to acquire a gun. My grandpa always talked about how him and all his buddies would bring their .22's in their cars and shoot target practice right off school grounds when they got out of class. Bunch of kids and a bunch of guns on campus and guess what not a bunch of school shootings. It's not the guns, these kids are ed up today, bunch of passive aggressive pussies. If you'd like to continue the discussion without asking stupid questions I'd be more than happy to oblige.

    Interesting how these shootings happen a lot in the Left Coast. I thought gun control was strict over there. Don't most of these shootings happen on the West Coast and Northeast? Some of the most liberal places in America yet still happens.

    Wow Texas with only 1 high school shooting. Pretty good considering the population (looking at Cali, Florida and east of the Mississippi). The shooting in Houston shouldn't have been recorded tbh. With all the people who own guns in Texas you would think there would be more, but.........interesting.

    that SSRI stuff shouldn't be taken by any young male, that's really meant for girls. that stuff will mess with your head.

    1) eat a good diet

    2) workout regularly

    3) don't watch porn

    That's the definition of arrogant.

    If you'd like to continue the discussion without asking stupid questions I'd be more than happy to oblige.
    Neh, I'll pass. It'll end up being a gun control thread again and when i eventually point will point out the flaws in your logic, you'll get arrogantly ass hurt per par. Same ol same ol.
