Just lookin' out for you, old chap.
Have at it.
I wonder if the young angry men in the UK joining ISIS have any similarities to the young angry men shooting up US schools?
Both are about young men living comfortable western lifes styles abandoning that life, tnere friends and family to spread hatred and violence. There outward motives may be diffrent but the core mind set looks very similar.
I wonder if what you ask may be similar to how angry young men used to run off to join the French Foreign Legion.
Adventure, opportunity, fame and fortune, where they feel their own societies had let them down.

PRELIMINARY REPORTS OF 10 KILLED, 20 INJURED IN SHOOTING AT COMMUNITY COLLEGE IN OREGON, STATE POLICE SPOKESMAN SAYS.
Preliminary information indicates 10 people were killed and more than 20 others injured in a shooting at Oregon's Umpqua Community College on Thursday, said Oregon State Police spokesman Bill Fugate.
The reports suggest that the shooter has been detained, he said.
Earlier, authorities told CNN they were responding to reports of an active shooter at the Roseburg college campus.
Another MASS school shooting this is a big one folks..
More news just coming in now

UPDATE UP TO 15 DEAD
ktla.com...
At least 15 people were reportedly killed after an active shooter was spotted at Oregon’s Umpqua Community College.
Preliminary information indicated 10 people were killed and more than 20 were injured, Oregon State Police spokesman Bill Fugate told CNN.
TV station KATU later reported 15 people were killed, according to state police.
Wow...that is a lot of people. What is it about schools that attracts these maniacs? I just don't get it. Are they THAT wrapped up in what is going on at school?
Messed up....RIP to all those souls.
Honestly, I believe it's because they are gun free zones. Those who would commit crimes, small ones, or the heinous like this person did, prefer little if any resistance.
I may remind that most schools I've come across are *gun-free zones*. I need say no more.
You cant put guns everywhere.
Ok you arm teachers.
Then these nuts will shoot up hospitals or local malls.
More guns just masks the underlying issue the USA has.
You need to actually find out what is at the core of the USA mass shooting problem.
Other countrys in the world have guns but dont have this problem like Switzerland so why the US?
This is honestly something the US needs to start a very thorough investigation on.

You may very well be right.
There is a very common theme. Once you leave there race and religion out its the same theme?
Young men from what seem like normal family's abandoning everything and everyone to go on a quest of violence.

You see, your problem is that you're not paying attention. The earlier poster was blaming ALL LAW-ABIDING GUN OWNERS for violent crime and gun-related homicides because they supported their own rights to their own property rather than his views of gun control. My point was that a law-abiding gun owner isn't any more responsible for the acts of some nut job than he was responsible for a drunk having a fatal car accident or even in the case of pure accidents.

Solving THIS problem...as well as the problem of angry young men joining ISIS from both sides of the Atlantic...may be as simple and blatantly obvious as actually bringing back opportunity and prosperity to our economies.
