We need to have a discussion on the national level about mental health issues and bullying, too. Focusing only on the guns is simply starting the path to the next tragedy.
It's called opportunism & *everyone* with an agenda is guilty of it at one point or another. Now it's the Left's turn.

Just picking a nit. If the kid actually pulled a knife on her, then technically he did assault her. Dumbass should have called the cops right then & there.
This would have never happened in my house because I know I would have been beaten to the point I couldn't have held a knife for a week. Was I abused as a kid? Not even in the least, I just understood what boundaries were & didn't go near them.
