The mentally unstable will always find a way to harm others especially if they want to go on a rampage. Perhaps the answer is not only to restrict weapons of mass destruction but also more comprehensive Mental Health Care. Even an old granny like me can figure out how to make bombs from the blueprints on the internet or buy AR-15s on the internet. The difference between being mentally unstable enough to go attacking other people or being just an old granny like me, who likes to get up on her soapbox. My words don’t kill anyone…. And unfortunately my desires for political reform doesn’t seem to be saving anyone either….. But I’ve been fighting for what’s right against what’s wrong in our systems, since I was a teenager,….. which was a long long long time ago ….. I still haven’t given up fighting for what’s right instead of complacently enduring what’s wrong. I can tell by the comments at gocomics that people who care about our society as a whole, don’t stop caring just because naysayers keep saying nothing can be done. If the negative posters in here, on this site, truly believe that anything can be turned into a weapon…. then perhaps they might want to get on the bandwagon for Better Mental Health Care. Although restricting weapons of mass destruction is there really a good step forward but so is better Healthcare, better mental health care. So is keeping an open attitude about how good diversity can be for our society here in the United States, rather than becoming so jingoistic that we fall behind the rest of the world in Social, scientific, and humanitarian progress.
