Sorry, this is simply you being selfish and protecting an object instead of considering what is needed pragmatically for public safety.
Children died as a result of an ADULT using a firearm. You cannot have it both ways. You cannot say "keep them out of the wrong hands" and bitch when we agree. Obviously this person was the wrong hands, otherwise those children would not be dead.
You cannot pawn this off on kids being kids. It does not matter what those kids did. PERIOD!
You, "the kids pushed their button".
Me, "So the fuck what." How does that change the access to a firearm? I don't give a shit. That person should not have been allowed to access a firearm.
You are creating a dodge to justify protecting the object, when the right thing for society to do is prevent someone that disturbed from getting their hands on a firearm. I could give a shit less if you claim you are not blaming the kids.
This is the same bullshit dodge used with rape victims. "Well, they didn't deserve to get raped. but they shouldn't have worn a short skirt."
The kids have no say in our laws, only adults make our laws, and if you think our laws currently reduce events like this to an effective degree, you are delusional. In the next 24 hours, more of our fellow citizens will commit suicide, get murdered by an abusive partner, accidentally shoot themselves, or someone else, and or do shit like the story in this OP. To the tune of an average of 100 per day every day on average.
If you find that acceptable, you need help.
