We don’t know that he was ‘fine’.

He was taken in for psych eval after threatening to shoot up a school. THEN he went and legally bought a rifle and passed a NICS check.
It is safe to say the headshrinker thought he was "just an excitable boy".......
Sorry, but I think may be another unjustifiable assumption - how do you know he threatened to ‘shoot up’ a school? Every source I’ve looked at just said he made a ‘generalized threat’. I’d be happy to look if you have something more specific.
It is NOT safe to say anything about his psych evaluation. For all you or I know, he was found to be dangerous, just not dangerous enough to be kept in custody (I don’t know what the relevant standards are in New York for that). I’m not saying that was what was determined, just that we don’t know.
You seem to be of two minds regarding this sort of thing: when cops shoot people, you go on and on about ‘we don’t have all the facts’. In this case, you seem willing to substitute your own speculations for facts not in evidence.
