At my district, Head Start, Pre K, K-12 all receive active shooter drills, lockdown drills and evacuation drills. 7-12 receive ALICE training too.

I respect them walking out a hijacked vigil and gawd Michael Bennet is a horrible speaker. What is he thinking running for President?
I was, however, stunned to hear (local radio played a clip from it) how clear and unified the chant of "mental health" was. The conservative side of the aisle has done a great job of labeling gun violence as a mental health problem.
I guess they don't have mental health problems in Japan or the UK.

We didn't have a mental health problem here either until the 90s or so.

Something motivates people to commit these types of crimes, if it’s not their mental state then what is it? I think the distinction is that it’s not just mental health, it’s the availablity of weapons as well.

Maybe it has something to do with all the pills this country has been swallowing for two or three decades. Jesus, even psoriasis medication commercials say “may cause suicidal thoughts.” I understand that a certain (small) number of people really need psychoactive meds to balance themselves but most people who take them probably don’t.

Speaking of mass murderers, mental illness and rapidly changing societal pressures, this sounds relevant.
Quote:
"Imagine a society that subjects people to conditions that make them terribly unhappy, then gives them drugs to take away their unhappiness. Science fiction? It is already happening to some extent in our own society. It is well known that the rate of clinical depression has been greatly increasing in recent decades. We believe that this is due to disruption of the power process. But even if we are wrong, the increasing rate of depression is certainly the result of SOME conditions that exist in today's society. Instead of removing the conditions that make people depressed, modern society gives them antidepressant drugs. In effect, antidepressants are a means of modifying an individual's internal state in such a way as to enable him to tolerate social conditions that he would otherwise find intolerable. (Yes, we know that depression is often of purely genetic origin. We are referring here to those cases in which environment plays the predominant role.)"

Freud and several others would probably broadly agree. Especially my boy Neechee.
This will only get worse. Guess the only thing to do now is take away liberties and slowly transform humanity into docile cattle so that we can live in this pointless modern world without going insane.
