Sheriff: The Guns didn't change, We changed. (Video)
2018-02-16
[facebook] WATCH: Washington sheriff after latest school shooting: "You started glorifying cultures of violence -- you’ve glorified the gang culture, you’ve glorified games that actually give you points for raping and killing people. Gun didn’t change. We changed."

#4  #2 When I was a teen in the rural MidWest all the kids- boys and girls drove pickups to school with gun racks in the rear window. I don't recall these kids ever shooting anybody. Coyotes, rabbits and other vermin yes, people no.

We have a lot of urban spillover, peoples of shitholes, and drug trash now. Neighbor town had the local live in drug gang rep shoot down 2 in a deal gone bad then threatened some he knew prompting a number of lock-downs. Meat packing cities are turning into shitholes. Story from someone who went into a pizza joint to get dinner and felt like a scene from Captain Philips, customer who lives outside packing city was in shopping for body armor because latin kings and such. Traveling pawn shops mean users can steal local and buy/sell/trade a different town's stolen goods. Meth hives usually have at least one war dog such as pit bull and boy are they neat when they aren't fed right and escape to find a bite to eat. Had a drifter covered in prison tats yelling at me from across the street because I didn't give him the big cheese greeting. So yeah, we still varmint hunt but have had to consider 4 yards as well as the usual 400.

#3  A typical 8th grade shop class first woodworking project was to build a gun rack.

Now they don't even let kids in shop use a tool that might cut them.

#1  We put a lot of trust in the gate keepers and their background checks and it doesn't look like the FBI takes it very seriously.

Someone reports a video about a guy threatening violence on a school, the guy made it under his own name, the guy had a background check within two years to buy firearms.

Perhaps all of that is nothing but it seems certainly that its enough for further investigation. Perhaps a visit to the school where they would have learned pretty much everyone at the school suspected the guy would go shooter.
