      @@succulentflakesofperfectly5541 I think your response highlights a systematic flaw in our treatment of people with mental health issues more than anything. The problem isn't guns, and gun control isn't the solution, the solution is better treatment and awareness on mental health. This man didn't save the school by beating the kid up, he gave him a hug, told him he mattered. The kid obviously has issues to think that bringing a gun to the school is a solution but doesn't mean he isn't just like any other kid who wants to be loved, cared about.

I couldn't help but feel fucked up inside when I saw the reaction to the hug. The young man's frustration with his own life made me think about my sons. As fathers we gotta strike a balance and let our sons know that we love them and that they're still valuable to us regardless to the circumstances.

    I read an article written by Adam Rittenberg for ESPN and Keanon was quoted as saying "It wasn't in me to beat him up or hold him down or hurt him, even though it was seconds after this crazy thing happened. I felt his vibe, I felt how scared he was, I felt it all". _That's_ why he hugged Angel. Well done Keanon, great job. Edit: There is another article written by Greg Bishop for Sports Illustrated where Keanon says of the gun incident and his best friend who died "Taylor was with me. He was right there the whole time".

    This is the most selfless man that I have ever seen. At his young age he could possibly be a WR coach maybe an OC in a high paying NFL/College program but decided to go to a high school to educate and make a difference. I absolutely believe the kid with a gun did need someone to care about him and hopefully he can learn and be a productive member of society. A lot of these kids that bring these guns in schools are bullied and maybe there home life is in turmoil and that does not condone their actions.

      You were doingn pretty well until the last couple words. This has nothing to do with gun culture. This is about America's laxity on health care in general and mental health in particular.
      This kid needed help and he wasn't getting it. His cry for attention happened to be a gun, it could have just as easily been joining a gang, bringing a knife, doing drugs, or half a dozen other things. The gun is really tangential to the story at most.

If you have a mental health issue we sort it out at a hospital not with a dangerous weapon that shouldn't be allowed in ones possession. This is gun toxicity at it's finest. You have women, children, schools, churches, shopping malls ffs getting shot up. This is a living nightmare.. You're losing your people because they don't want to lose the guns.

      @Nathan-xm7rw 4 года назад +2

      If anything it's the product of counseling and mental health being stigmatized. I can guarantee this kid has been told to "Man up" by at least one person he reached out to. You can blame guns all you want, nothing's going to change since the right to own them isn't going change. If you want to see actual change, how about we stop worrying solely about women's issues, and worry more about the issues facing men as well. Some people are insane, and they shouldn't have gotten their hands on a gun; but some people are driven to this point, and that can't be blamed on anyone besides the people who pushed them that far.

    • @Nathan-xm7rw
      @Nathan-xm7rw 4 года назад +2

      @@WinstonStudiosFilm Do you realize that around 96% of mass shootings happen in gun free zones? If all guns were banned, someone could still obtain one illegally and go kill people. Statistics show that they already go to places where people don't have guns. Outlawing guns would just make all areas a gun free zone, and there would be no chance for people to fight back. I know a lot of bad seems to happen with guns, but do you have any idea how many people are saved by them every year? Also, hand guns amass way more deaths per year than semi automatic rifles do, so if you're looking to get rid of anything, it probably shouldn't be someone's MSR-15 that they leave locked up in a safe 99% of the time.
