LAX Shooting

My only personal experience with the mentally ill was my ex wife.
In her case? I've recommended for years a GSW to the head.
1) We're never ever going to completely eliminate our problem of mentally ill acquiring firearms, or any other weapon for that matter.
2)BUT I'm of the opinion we can improve our situation.
A single easily accessible nationwide database of the known mentally ill would be a great start. Of course people are going to have to be "profiled" and the idiots opposing that. Are the same ones screaming for more of the same of what we're already doing. Expecting a different result THIS time.
If we can incarcerate people for minor drug offenses I don't know why we can't institutionalize the worst of the known mentally ill.
Enforcing the existing 22,000 federal state and local gun laws we already have would make some positive difference.
Repealing all these ridiculous "gun free zones" so that properly licensed individuals who carry are armed when and where these threats emerge. Thereby at least potentially reducing some of the damage. As opposed to only the crazy guys being armed. Law enforcement cannot and will not ever be able to be every where all the time. The citizenry is.
I'm sure there are many more worthy ideas from people more familiar with metal illness than I am.

A perfect example of the failure of government background checks. In this case it appears NO checks were done.
Earlier this year I posted an article describing how hundreds if not thousands of federal background checks had been falsified over a period of years. If I recall even several dead people were approved.

We'll never find out what psych meds the shooter was on. That is the first question that springs to mind when I hear these news stories. Paxil? That s%^t that the Scientologists were against.. what? The news outlets sell pills for the Medical Cartel so they are never going to tell us what's really going on with the guy... If he has Low Latent Inhibition then marijuana could put him over the edge even...
A significant number of school shootings are perpetrated by children either on or withdrawing from ADD drugs. If memory serves I believe at least one if not both Columbine shooters fell into this category.
I have little doubt at least some of our "mental illness" problem is effectively self inflicted. By misdiagnosis of nonexistent "diseases" and the over use of drugs. I saw a documentary on this subject earlier this year. The revelations were shocking.
