High school shooting in Parkland FL

[pocaracas]

In my humble opinion, the one single thing that would reduce the homicide rate the most in the USA would be to stop the war on drugs and shift to a health-oriented approach to abusers. I doubt that would reduce mass shootings in schools significantly though.

Raising the minimum age to 21, requiring a violent-crime free criminal record and no prison time in the previous ten years, and a psych eval if you have mental problems might, though.

I'd remove the violent from there.... just crime free criminal record... and confiscation as soon as that record became less free.
Periodic Psych and medical eval. Do you want someone who develops Parkinson's to handle the arsenal he's amassed while Parkinson's free? (just an example)
