If you were to actually look at the "telltale signs" that were Monday morning quarterbacked after all these incidents, the vast majority of the population would be locked up.
The only way to know who is going to be the next mass killer is to happen to be there that day, the guy with the weapons killing the people, good chance he is the one, beyond that, nope. I am more concerned about my kids safety going to a city like St louis and walking down the road than sending them to a school campus or whatever the envogue mass killing locale is at the moment. No amount of legislation will cure the assholes. I get a real kick out of the new bandwagon of "we wont say his name" . That will teach em. Arm everybody, something small at birth like a .22 zip gun, and as you age move up to larger caliber, free body armor up to the age of 18. hunger games for all criminals. Though in all seriousness, most gun owners are pretty responsible people. I have a FOID card that's required in Illinois, but don't have any registered firearms in my house because I drink like a fish and I have a bad temper, not a good combination, It will stay that way until my town devolves like the rest and I'm forced to quit drinkin. Never know though, maybe the government will solve the problem and ban crime. There is one kid though, I'm pretty sure he will do a school shooting, I was up working on our gear on a tower and kept hearing plink plink. I started looking around, there was a kid across the street trying to assassinate me with a bb gun, he ran inside, I giggled. I would be he would like that book.
