One of these days the real culprit in these incidents will be displayed. That is the fact we as a society not only condone but promote violence. Just pay attention to the subject matter of far too many tv programs and almost all movies. It has been going on for years. Parents allow their children to be trained by everything except common sense. The permissive culture denies nobody to promote violence.

Unfortunately because most adults enjoy the violence it is not a priority to eliminate the daily drumming of our young with violence at every turn.

There is no mystery to the behavior of the few who go off the deep end....using tactics learned from tv and movies....what they use to do the job is merely a cop out of the real problem. We certainly would not expect politicians to go against the entertainment business (other wise known as cash support).

^^^^^^^^This post bears repeating.

BTW, gun nuts is an inflammatory term, but I think many people (not all for sure) who use the term are referring to the inflexible NRA. I come from a farming, hunting, outdoor family and I own several guns as do all my relatives, but most of us would agree that assault weapons and guns not uselful or necessary in hunting or defending oneself should be controlled or severely limited in access, and the gun show exception should be eliminated.
