Anyone else notice that whenever a scandal is about to overtake Obama, something big occurs that pushes it to the back of the line??

Come on please don't tell me you think this was a conspiracy.

Read the guys Twitter stream, he was clearly upset, depressed, heart broken, angry and felt alone. I guarantee he also made numerous threats before today to fellow students but they either A. Didn't take it seriously or B. Didn't want to be labeled a "snitch."

The same thing happened when I arrested the kid with the pipe bombs at my high school. He had a plan and was about to carry it out. His friends knew but didn't want to rat him out. Luckily he slipped up on a computer search in the library that red flagged him to me.

It was a simple observation and nothing more. Every time a large scandal lands on Obama, something just as big occurs and its buried.

edit to add for the love of the monkey gods dont open his twitter at work it is not safe for work and contains horrible creepy nudity
hope this little whiny kid is rotting/burning in hell ,and i dont think people will be able to say there were no signs as his odd behavior and veild threats go back as far as agust so id say he been slowly building to this level for months

If there is one thing that most teens are almost consistently known for it is their penchant for drama. It's called hormones. Unfortunately some teens either implode or explode.

Did you read down that twitter account there is a lot of talk of something happening that people are not going to like, stuff going down etc. These tweets really start to happen as far back as June and there is some pretty angry things that were said.

I read that. Seems like he was having some serious girlfriend issues, that's what I got out of it. A few of those tweets were (imo) "reportable"

yeah teens can be mopey or emotional but most kids dont talk about how people are gonan regret something for months going back to agust and then decide to shoot up a school so in this case huge warning signs and red flags were ignored ,guy obiously lost his **** over his ex and decided to take it out on innocents what happend to sucking it up and dealing with a break up like a reasonable person. people always ask where were the signs how could we have preventted this how about reading the nut jobs twitter and cracking down on idiots posting manifestos or hinting at doing things "people will regret etc"

From my personal experience you are correct.

There were things posted on facebook, written plans shown to fellow students, youtube videos etc that my student had made.

Many people read them but either thought he "was just being a kid" or they didn't want to be a "snitch."

The problem is with guns, violent movies, and video games, they have existed for a long time.

The problem is a broken mental health care system and people not wanting to step up and do the right thing (anti snitch culture).

Didn't say that going out and shooting up a school was normal. The whining, however, is pretty normal and that includes idle threat making whether it be suicide or not. The problem is that, for all the truly idle threats, some kids aren't making idle threats but actual ones. Hence my point about how some implode (suicide) or explode (like this kid). If every kid dropping a non-specific threat of "you're gonna regret this" warranted investigation, then well, that'd be the majority of teens under investigation.

eh fair enough perhaps its time for some not political correct advertising(no idea how this would really work and highly dobut it would be implemented or even legal but hey some times shame works) start a frigging national add campain that says hey if your thinking about shooting up a school either go commit your self to an institution or do the world a favor and put that gun barrel in your mouth and save the world alot of strife and greif. like i said not likely to happen but if more people either told these people get frigging help(highly stigmatized for some)or just off your self and save the world their bs.

part of the problem is that every time this happens its exactly what SOME (dont want to over generalize) of the perpetrators want to happen, they want their story aired so others can see how "sad" or "hurt" they were,they want their name flashing across national news papers to get the recognition they did not get in life in their deaths. they feel alone and isolated and that they will amount to nothing and so they see the news polarizing all these shootings and getting all kidns of attention in social media and realize its their last shot at any kind of "glory" or of finally getting people to listen to their complaints(real or imagined).

Next time this happens(and dont fool your self there will always be a next time) report on the shooting but do not use the killers name,do not show their picture on the news,ERASE them from our history do not give them the glory and recognition they seek make them anonymous ghosts and let the scum fade to obscurity and then dump their corpse in a landfill.

this is not to say do not try to learn from these incidents or how we can stop them mind you, but we need to do some of the easier things to do to stop these things and taking away the fringe benefit of glory and airing their complaints in my opinion would go a long way to reducing the number of incidents like these that occur.

Wow, this shooting came just in time to boost another gun control law up for a vote in Washington in a couple of weeks time on Nov 4, election day:

seattle.cbslocal.com...
Supporters of the initiative to expand background checks have received large donations from wealthy figures, including Microsoft co-founders Bill Gates and Paul Allen, and have spent millions .... a group funded by former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, had already donated $1 million to the campaign, and on Thursday announced it would spend $1 million more.

Another kooky coincidence!

I wasnt massively bullied but there were episodes that caused me upset. Never told my mum because I knew she would go to school and just thought it would make things worse.a reply to: kaylaluv

Let's wait for the full details of what happened!

If this was another case of someone being bullied and snapping & killing bullies then may he rest in peace...

If not...
Rest In Peace to those who passed!

I don't think having an ad campaign that says "if you're thinking about hurting yourself or others..." is necessarily non politically correct. Maybe the telling them to off themselves in the privacy of their own home part but not any sort of outreach.

Not every shooter is a glory hound either. A lot just simply explode without consideration of what they are doing and the long term effects. Many don't even plan it. The "reasons" for the non glory hound and non planning type vary from a romantic dispute to a bad grade or even being gang related. That's kind of the problem with school shootings and trying to fit them neatly into a single box. Some do it because they are hate-filled megalomaniacs. Some do it to avenge themselves for some perceived wrong. Even whether they are suicidal or not varies.

What I'm trying to say is that not all of them are like Lanza or that Elliot guy from Cali where your description would be absolutely true.
