- After Megyn Kelly shares a powerful public service message about school shootings, school psychologist Tom Kersting says “we have to empower our kids” to bring warning signs to the attention of parents and authorities. In the studio audience, a substitute teacher at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School says she’s on “pins and needles” to learn the identities of students killed.

Psychologist: Florida Shooting Suspect Nikolas Cruz Showed Many Warning Signs | Megyn Kelly TODAY
You guys forgot the Las Vegas shooter, he shows no sign of psychology illness, no warning sign, coming from a perfectly normal and healthy family. To "predict" mass shooter is actually very difficult and near impossible. It's like wishfully thinking to predict crime and arrest them before they commit the crime.
For every mass shooter that doesn't show signs, there are 5 that do....
For those of you that think that who they told you was the Vegas shooter was actually the shooter. SMH.
rewer so ban auto rifles
rewer I think it's more about gun control then it is a psychological guessing game. Americans need to realize the military already has them out gunned lol no one down there needs assault rifles.
rewer it's not the mentally ill people who are doing the shooting rampages. It's usually very smart organized people who can stay under the radar until they are shooting the people. The truly mentally ill people can't stay under the radar.
How about stop bullying? Everyone talks about guns but I hear no one talking about bullying
BootySauce its almost impossible. Study showed all victims of bullies are also bullies themselves
Here in Fla they just passed a bill to give victims of bullies school vouchers. So the bully gets to stay and the victim must change schools and leave their friends and teachers. Sad.
The school doesn’t want to kick the bully out because they lose money when students aren’t at school. The know the victims will be accepted at other schools but not do much for he bully. Sad.
Don't you get it?
You are the only fking country in the world with automatic weapons and guns of all sorts on every block.
You are the only fking country in the world with regular mass shootings.
How complex do you need to make it?
actually health classes still teach about bullying and everyone still talks about it. Theres been talk about it for years now
If kids are profiled and identified.. . remember this is not proof of guilt for a crime that hasnt happened as yet. They have to be supported and cared for with love and compassion till they recover.
Taking the “crazy kids” off of gun lists will not prevent them from getting guns or bombing schools. Unfortunately, this kid fell through the cracks as both his adoptive parents are deceased. He may have had no anchor after his adoptive mother died. So sad.
These discussions make me sick. It’s just talk. No action.
OBAAT definitely not a discussion about video games and psych class
If I tell you what we should do you’ll shut me out. If the kid had a knife he wouldn’t have killed so many. I grew up in another country where regular citizens don’t have guns. It’s a shame that some times people would stab, but no such thing as a mass shooting. Like I said I’m American but I was born and raised in a country that don’t allow regular citizens to have guns. But when I moved back to the states when I was 19 I got a real culture shock. People here have too many guns. What do you expect when you have this many guns? It’s just sad nothing will get better here. Because you will forget it in a week or so. It’s what ALWAYS happens. Not smart enough to change it then obviously people are going to continue to die from gun violence.
Kittyin Indy correct.
Kittyin, I would expect more random deaths. According to your logic there should be at least 100 million deaths by shooting, and that is clearly not the case. Grow a brain.
Kittyin Indy. You won me over. I'll follow you when you storm Congress with axes and pitchforks.
I like their message but there is a fine line here, people start over reacting, then situations like The West Memphis Three happen. Teenagers accused of killing because they wore black and were bullied, who were sentenced to life in prison and one given the death sentence when there was no evidence connecting them to the crime. Finding evidence many years later of someone else doing it.
When a white man murders innocent people he was bullied, his parents died, he's alone, grieving and a hurting lone wolf. He's mental health. The psycho therapists and psychologists come out of the woodwork. You NEVER hear TERRORIST, THUG, OR EVEN MURDERER. IT'S INCREDIBLE.
Because white men are inherently good and have just lost their way.
William Smith 75 percent of isis victims were muslims so what’s your point???
William Smith and you think your religion is perfect??? a religion who promotes in church that’s god died for your sins is a weak and false and you see the consequences peoples become evils do wherever they want and expect to go to heaven
Serious question to help me understand the argument. Have there been any black mass school shooters? I don't know of any, but it may be under reported.
Here come the weak excuses!!
Guys I read an article summing up an interview with the family he was living with. They said that he told them (2 days before the shooting) that he'd never felt that great in a long time.
Loves Yehushua what if was a Muslim that had never felt great what would u say about that muslim?
Zona Ponta...I am not sure what you're asking. What does my response have to do with Muslims?
That is a creepy message. I grew up in former communist country and every kid was subjected to a physiological test on yearly basis.
I like how this singles out people being bullied like once you're bullied then you automatically become a murderer. So you can't help getting bullied and then you get profiled for it and accused of things that have nothing to do with you. Don't bullies have mental health issues too then? They're violent as well. Verbal and physical abuse for years and they get to pick who the witch is for this century's hunt?
Jsuis14 I believe he was.being the BULLY he was taking out his anger on others he got expelled from school the year prior.
Not only being bullied but he was a loner. Worst tragedy before that was that his parents died and another family member he stayed with died. He had nobody. He got kicked out of multiple high schools which is a red flag. He should have been getting mental health support and probably home schooled. Instead it was overlooked and this is what happened. Common denominator is that all the shootings are from boys. I think society as a whole needs to look at that and why so many young boy these age have access to the guns and then go on a shooting rampage. Did anyone even bother to talk to him regarding his issues outside of school?
Jsuis14 is not about being bullied, as stated, not because you are bullied you will become a murderer. It's about how weak minded people are too not be able to cope with bullying and go on a rampage of anger killing inocent people. I mean no offense to anyone that has ever been bullied, I was bullied myself as a child. May God bless all of the families broken by this horrendous act of evil. Can't even imagine all the pain.
THANK YOU, was waiting for someone to post this comment
"Approximately 1 in 5 adults in the U.S.-43.8 million, or 18.5%-experiences mental illness in a given year.1 ". good luck monitoring all that. The only viable solution is to stop putting military weapons in civilian hands. It is far more feasible to start destroying around 10 million guns a year, and outlaw them from civilian hands, than it is to ever make a dent on your mental health issues. Once you make it really hard for non-criminals to get guns, you'll see the school massacres stop. But I think American's have a "won't happen to my family" attitude - which is a safe bet statistically - so there will be no action. Why give up your gun just so someone elses kid can live?
Wishfull thinking to predict crime and arrest them before they commit the crime.
Wishful thinking is to actually have a healthcare system that is genuinely about improving the health of patients and people in this country. Sadly, the healthcare system is driven by profit and insurance companies care more about $$$. 18 shootings in 2018 and majority are by males.
Fuzzy Puppet its not wishfull of your living under a rock. Terrorist act have been prevented, and gun violence. Its not 100%, its round. 5-10%. Very low, better then none. EU works much better there, violence gone up. The side affect is better, gun violence is so low. Fist fight, knife cut, domestic violence. Atleast they happy, they dont have worry about waking up to bullet spray. Only high rate death they got is from old age. Maybe you should improved the rate better like Eu. Then pretend that it doesnt exists, any where else.
Minority Report
Minority Report
Fuzzy Puppet Not arresting them but 'involuntarily committing' them to bogus 'mental hospital' under the watch of a quack and those that work with him/her. They already do it to random people that are not even diagnosed as 'mentally ill' by that bogus DSM book. A quack spoke of Trump without even knowing him.
I read a story online that a crisis team with a bunch of officers got a man, who had been blackout drunk the night before from where he lived. The same day, in the place, before he was committed, he actually wanted to go and was actually fine, but ended up spending three days in the dump. On top if that, the same day he had been waiting in intake or whatever he saw that an actual suicidal teen girl was allowed to leave and not be committed due to lack of bedding when he had already made clear he was alright and wanted to leave. That girl was crying to her mother on the phone. He was even handed a paper stating basically by the court, they were allowed to subdue him and needle him with drugs if he refused them.
Wow... using video games as an excuse of crimes. I play video games, yet i've never shot a gun.
soju69jinro yeah, that’s just stupid. They have the same games in Japan and Europe. It’s the trillions of guns they don’t have.
Lol
soju69jinro not yet
Mike Buttfild 🙄 um no...what do you mean “not yet” give him the benefit of the doubt. Instead of thinking the best in people, you automatically assume the worst. Be nice! 🤤
Mike Buttfild You're a anonymous, your opinion holds as much weight as trying to hold water in a piece of paper.
This young man was abused and broken. I wrote an essay to my teacher at twelve describing physical abuse from my father when I was four. I waited for two weeks. No one addressed it. Wake up read what abuse does to a child.
American will never understand that they think the kid is evil or possessed by the devil or something like that, hilarious
We need to take more responsibility and figure out the solutions-- AGREED.
Lexes O'Hara we just need better security at schools
Best security stop giving guns to kids not old enough to drink, stop giving guns to people on the terrorist watch list, stop giving guns to people who are mentally ill. Stop allowing any civilian owning guns like an AR15 no civilian needs a gun like that.
I totally agree with your comment
might be good to draw a linear reference to the causes of violence since everything has a source that can be found
What you guys are banning guns???
I am sorry Megyn Kelly, but I am sick of the hypocrisy and the stark contrast of how the media talk about people of colour, especially muslims, vs how you talk about white men when things like these happen.
its all the same
there is good and bad white, black, muslims , asians ,europeans, Americans ,dont matter what colour or creed you are,what makes you think a muslim is any different from christian white black whatever as the previous comment "its all the same"
That's a powerful small film at the beginning my heart felt like it stopped beating. So sorry for the people lost.
Seriously blaming video games huh? As if kids from no other nation play counterstrike.
6:47 Okay, no. This kid did not get the idea to shoot up a school from playing a videogame, we've already had this debate. Let's focus more on solutions and less on escape goats.
they're getting paid from the NRA so thats why, gotta make up reasons. disgusting. I swear to you if it was a muslim they wouldn't have said anything about mental health
Obviously. Can't risk getting called a racist bigot!
I thought only white people could be called racist. The shooter was Hispanic or Latino
Clara Romano- But it does feed and influence his fantasy, yes we've had mass shootings before video games even existed, like Colombine, but it's not like videogames have nothing to do with it, they play only one color, of a grand portrait of several colors
No one said that, the guy said people are becoming more desensitised by violence in the media, particularly violent video games. This played a small factor in him being able to pull the trigger on kids, because you have to keep in mind as well this guy was mentally ill, on drugs as well which stopped him from thinking straight at all in the moment. And I'm saying this as someone who's played violent video games for as long as I can remember, trust me I'm not against violent video games.
I'm glad I got to experience first hand working around teenagers who are troubled. Even as a substitute, I spent time encouraging them and telling them I believe in them. They were SHOCKED when I was positive towards them and they always came around me knowing that at least somebody believes they can be and do better. There are parents who are afraid of their kids and won't discipline them! Teachers who dont care about their students, and students who don't care how they treat each other. We need to know the signs of a very troubled person so they can get help. Real help.
Vandalising property of the library is not right.
A clear sign right there.
This is what bullying comes down to
That's no excuse
Honestly I don’t understand why people feel the need to bully and be extremely nasty to another person in the first place, they’re asking for violence to happen someone I don’t see the point in bullying.
Plus where’s the fun in bullying someone just because they’re different or not very nice dressed you don’t know why these people look and act different so it’s not nice to bully anyone.
The shooter isn't the victim.
They are talking about this topic to get views. They will talk more about the murderer than the people that died because it means more views and commercial profit. They are not preaching a gospel to stop the problem.
+Meowtains
Totally agree.
Shooters are in the wrong but they are victims they are at the point were there is no other way to get rid of the pain
There has to be X-ray machines or metal detectors...this is insane. All school should have all doors locked and have each entrant screened all day every day... all mentally ill students need to be closely monitored...
CIAOBELLA That's what I'm saying...
He wasn't even attending that school at the time. If he really wanted to shoot up the school, metal detectors wouldn't have prevented him from getting in especially if it's a large enough high school. They would have to place those detectors at every entrance and have it all being monitored. Schools and states wont provide that kind of funding. He could have easily slipped in or shot the security guards to get in even at that.
But a locked outside door would have definitely slowed him down. Especially if what is being said about him shooting people outside of the school before he even entered.
There were classroom doors that were locked and people were hiding too, as he was going through the halls shooting. You know what he did? He shot through the locks and glass. That's not going to stop him. I've been to many high schools, since I'm a substitute teacher, and there are always ways to get into the buildings because students are always finding ways to ditch or get by unseen. There's not many campus monitors or security either. As long as they time it right, any student can get in school buildings without being seen.
If you look into the V-tech shooting, there was an investigation regarding the mental health system and officials that were in charge of giving him treatment. It was found that the system failed him. That happens more often than not. The healthcare system in the U.S. is geared to make profit. A lot of patients are routienly just prescribed medication/drugs at an alarming rate because psychiatrists and insurance companies care more about $$$. It's also happening in hospitals. It's a shame and the politicians are being paid off to support a lot of these major companies. 18 shootings in 2018 all by angry males.
"YOU HAVE TO WATCH THIS... PLEASE WATCH THIS." LOL Kelly is such a bad reporter
Orangecrushgraffix Or she is just passionate and sincere.
Vegan Mira nah
Vegan Mira no she is simply not
SO IT IS NOT ABOUT GUNS ? REALLY !!!!!!!!! I AM REALLY GLAD THAT MY CHILDREN DO NOT ATTEND SCHOOL IN AMERICA !!!!
How can this happen in the most powerful nation. This kid felt left out by society, that could have played a big roll on his actions.
People get bullied all the time and nobody kills because of it... Only crazy people do crazy things.
I am so sick of hearing about innocent children being gun downed. What will it take, for good men and woman to stand up for what is right. I wonder is your gun rights are more precious than your children or your love ones?? I refuse to wait and do nothing while innocent children get gunned down again. Please stand with me for responsible gun ownership. Normal people don't need AR-15!
darkness The guns are there for the protection of the children.
darkness You want to make nurses and doctors banned because some are serial killers?
We are not talking about hand guns. Iam tired of hearing people get gun downed by Military Assault Rifles! The children in Sandy Hook, Aurora , Orlando, Las Vegas, Texas church, San Bernardino, parkland all been gun downed by AR-15.
bf109 uraliin
So which is it? Legal or illegal? You said both
darkness Guns are guns....Hand gun or AR...Doesn't make a big difference in school shootings.
It won't stop until bullying stops.
Exactly. No one addresses bullying, either at school or in the workplace. They only point out the end result of these things and not those who are REALLY responsible. Bullies are the ones killing so many people.
WOW.!!
Very powerful and to the point.. Why haven't seen this before.? It should be required viewing in every school, children's agency and law enforcement agency..
This breaks my heart! I cant believe this tragic even keeps repeating itself! This shows we really haven’t learned much from our past. Please let’s save all our children in the future! Congress listen to our voices!
you can't blame Chicago for everything
.
My grandfather said this about 10 years ago "these violent video games and violent movie are going to become reality." And it's not always mental health the reason. Just like their is good there are also evil people.
It's more than that, but it's definitely a societal issue. Majority of these shooters are young boys that have built up anger because they felt that they were wronged in some way. An example would be the V-tech shooting. There was an investigation that was found that the mental health system and officials had failed him. Mental health system in the U.S. is geared towards profit as well. Even if he saw a psychiatrist, there are many who care more about #'s and prescribing drugs at a fast rate so it increases more $$$.
ImSoPinoyPride Yeah and too many drugs, like benzodiazepines that fries your brain.
Chana Bayla Some people go to war and come back fine. Some do not. Viewing violence effects people in different ways.
Video games in general are not the problem though. Keep in mind, that hunting is a sport, keep in mind that paintball is a sport. FPS's can be eSports. Overwatch. It's an FPS. It recently had a League competition. It deals with "shooting" but it is sport-minded and NOT at all like Call of Duty, Battlefield, PUBG, etc. Just keep that in mind before accusing video games in general. I'd term it to a "realistic-soldier-FPS" type of deal if you could.
People become so used to what they see every day that they learn to think it is normal..
So a gun sits on a table... kills no one. Kids ostracized and bully a kid to the bone and that is not addressed.
As a young high schooler, i was so shy and quiet. iI can totally get how so many signs of violence go unnoticed. Scary.
That's a very strong advert for gun violence
what about the Vegas shooter... He had no signs. there is a deeper peice to this that they don't want to talk about.
YOU ARE CORRECT MIKE. MASS SCHOOL SHOOTING... WE HEAR IT ALL THE TIME... NOW DAYS THAT IS. BACK WHEN THIS COUNRTY WAS A CHRISTIAN AMERICA THIS-NEVER-HAPPEND! AMERICA TURNED IT'S BACK ON GOD AND NOW LIVE IN SIN, AND THERE IS A PRICE FOR SIN AND IT WILL ONLY GET MUCH WORSE. THEY NEED TO REPENT AND RETURN BACK TO GOD.
themanshere74 ooooh thanks not what I was talking about but ay to each it's own
YOU ARE CORRECT. THEY DO NOT WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE DEEPER TRUTH. IF WE NEVER HAD SCHOOL SHOOTINGS BACK WHEN THIS COUNTY WAS A CHRISTIAN NATION, THEN ONE MUST ASK WHAT HAS CHANGED? THE ANSWER IS GOD.
themanshere74 lol most European countries have moved away from god and they dont have this problem. How about we start looking for actual solutions instead of relying on some man in the clouds.
YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME !!! ARE YOU JOKING! EUROPEAN COUNTRIES HAVE ALL KINDS OF MASS SHOOTINGS IN COUNTRIES WHERE GUNS ARE NOT EVEN ALLOWED. YET IS HAPPENS ANYWAY. WHY IS THAT? THEY TOO NEED TO TURN BACK TO GOD, THAT'S WAY. THE FACT IS THIS NEVER HAPPENED AT ALL BACK WHEN AMERICA WAS A CHRISTAIN NATION. AND THOSE ARE THE FACTS. LIKE IT OR NOT.
2:19
Deadass, did not even notice him...
Nice to see you on the side of hope and unbiased, open-minded reason, Megyn Kelly.
Robert Feight yes
Megyn Kelly is speaking the truth. No kid has to be scared to go to school !
Vicky G ifcpp.org/news/5566738 just a drill
more and more schools are doing it
@@louiepancoast2267 That's not proof that this was a drill
Our greatest scientists say we live in a random chaotic universe. This is just more proof of their theory.
WoW .. what a powerful message 💔🥺
I definitely agree with the signs that can determine if the child is emotionally not stable at the moment. Honestly, every school should have a professional group of people that are there to help those students that are in need of emotional support, that will make all the students feel good and confident about themselves, make the school environment loving and accepting and etc. And of course a guard!! But where is all this aggression coming from?... From movies , video games, toys and etc. Children are constantly exposed to violence...besides that.. what is the situation at home, in school, with friends. When all the stressors are combined together the children that have no proper guidance and support usually end up in bed situations( different kinds)... Yes, it is important to look for signs, starting from young age, and always make sure that your kids, students, friends are getting enough love and support, and that they know they have someone who believes and cares about them!
maybe they should have built a wall around the school
if that what it takes to keep the kids safe.. then so be it
Ayy Xd You sound old, I feel sorry for you, I play shooting games and I am a professional eSports gamer who makes a lot of money ($4k a month). I'm not killing anyone so video games aren't the issue
The Sandyhook video was great but let's agree kids like that exist the world over. In every other country however they do not have access to guns of any kind especially assault rifles. By all means address mental illness and society factors but first and foremost, address what enables these people (not just kids - Las Vegas) to commit mass murder.
By all means put some restrictions on guns as far as I care, but as long as kids are growing up in unstable unloving environments some of them will lash out in terrible ways by any means possible.
Wow, that video was heart wrenching & I didn't even notice the kid in the background at first. It proves people need to pay attention more. Although it is very sad that kids have basically profile the other students, school is hard enough & now they have to add this on top of it. Something needs to be done!
American kids also have the right to be kind to one another. Why not to traumatized kids especially?
Katharina Graf That's boring. It's more fun to prey on the weak. Now, hand over the lunch money, little girl!
Not a fan of Megyn but this was a promising episode,
Julio Castro very good episode. I’m impressed
I could never live in a country and rise my kids were guns are legal how is this even possible the same with putting kids in jail and prison in Sweden we NEVER PUT KIDS IN PRISON UNDER 18 the laws in U.S. are so screwed up 🤯🤬😱
Anna Froby- Well its a good thing you don’t live here and don’t have to worry about that now do ya
You have had mass shootings and a school shooting in Sweden before, just to a much lesser extent. And guns are legal is Sweden. You are a troll or just very ignorant.
Russian Bott yes Im so glad that i live in a peacefull happy place but Im also care about others that lives in another countries then ours here in Scandinavia and think the system in the us is totaly f***** up such a developt country like the us should be better than it is like death peanalty its a big shame for such a country like the us and every one have diffent opinions and this is mine
Smokeless1167 No not a troll this is my opinon and we dont have mass shotings i reast years more Guns ( non reg Guns) are in our country but we here dont have guns except for hunting and so on its very very hard to get a Gun here Im born in stockholm and i have never felt afride as a Young woman and now a bit older and nor afride for my kids at all so if someone herr is s troll ist not me
You are so lucky. I've always admired the Nordic countries and lately, I've really been wishing that I lived there. The policies are sane, they value human beings, and the quality of life is so much better.
STOP BULLYING
PARENTS KIDS AND SOCIETY
Thank you for this reasonable discussion.
It’s interesting to think about that research of the targets used for practice and courage to actually shoot a gun.. because if that’s a fact potentially people who plan on self harm or to others, and have the experience of shooter games or even shooting activities, will have (to say) the courage to go with their plan. And it’s not saying shooter games lead to shootings.. it’s saying that it may encourage a human to actually pull the trigger and then again every human is different. There is also the psychological aspect where if a diagnosis for say schizophrenia is present, hallucinations and delusions may play a part as an encouragement to complete this type of crime.
Stop giving the shooter all this attention...he accomplishes his goal, if you guys keep talking about him.
tom11zz884 I think their intentions are to raise awareness so people know what the possible signs are and what to do about it. Many students said they knew this individual was capable of a shooting but none of them knew what to do. I think this discussion was meant to inform others of what to do in the future if you see signs and are worried.
Megyn is one of the few reporters covering this story who seems to have a heart. So refreshing.
The students brought up the attention to the adults SO many times prior to, and at the time the police and school staff didn’t want to do anything about it. They had so many students come forward and the complaints were constantly dismissed.
I am an American living in france because of my husbands work, an american based company with offices in Europe. Why does this repeatedly happen in the US but nowhere in Europe….at least to my knowledge.
The UK, France, Germany, Sweden, Switzerland, and Finland have all had either mass shootings and/or school shootings. It's just become more common in the USA.
I forgot Norway (big massacre there)
SSRI's.
Robin Harris copycat shootings in the US are an issue, it’s like a cycle. They also don’t allow you to own AR’s over there
I think Michael Moore had it right in „Bowling for Colombine“. It’s this mixture of keeping people constantly scared of on another to consume together with a very violent culture and a dangerous Pharma industry. Just how many kids are on Ritalin? How many adults have anxiety there? I have never seen so many people diagnosed with a mental illness than while I lived in the US. That has to be man made.
So who do you tell if you're suspicious of someone?
Dean? Counselor?
Does anybody know what they would do? Put the kid in jail? Don't think so
aka._.Judith exactly, they don’t do a thing, they just say ok and move on
No one is talking of puting the troublée kid in jail,helping him,helpppiiinggg prople
There should be a security inspection in the entrance of all the schools just like in the airport. Strict measures should be implemented
They need to be able to charge people for physically bullying them.
The girl in the back at 2:37 is creepier than the whole video
+Nuparth Chaudhry Are you racist?
Lol
Y0UNG BiZZLE aye yo, no , the way she's looking in the distance I meant by that like you usually study and stuff in a library and not just sit straight and do nothing that's kinda creepy
Does anyone actually listen to the content of the video they are commenting on?
Megyn had time today!!!! She was passionate!!! I stopped mid video to sit with my son to discuss “signs” I can’t imagine this kind of loss. My gawd
What a wonderful show this is..hats off to Megyn Kelly....these are exactly the kind of shows more and more parents and teachers need to be watching to help understand what is happening and why...several takeaways from here...
It's almost always young men. And it's ALWAYS men.
Always white young men tbh.
Not always white.
99.97% of the time--I'm just giving the statistics
Tuna and not young, either. Hello ! The las vegas shooter was in his 40s. The shooter in orlando was early 30s.
Practically always white.
Don't mention his name! Let's start doing some things to stop this from happening, and 1 way is to stop making these cliche unoriginal psychos famous.
Matthew Sisti he won’t be famous, there will be plenty more shooters sadly !
Thank you Kelly you are right on
I know I’m in 9th grade and I’m terrified going to school anymore. I never NEVER will until we change something!!!
First of all Teen Suicide (which is significantly higher for boys) and Mass school shootings go hand in hand. The reason its usually always males is beacuse they have a higher tendency for violence. Doing a Mass shooting is like committing suicide with the desire to hurt people because they feel like they have been emotionally hurt by their peers. I think our society has to cater more to our boys emotional needs (which includes bullying, peer rejection, finding a purpose etc.). To put it simply the boy Cruz was not given enough affection from society and was proabably rejected by his peers and elders (expelled from school). So instead of just committing suicide he wanted to inflict pain on society for rejecting him. These mass shootings are a reflection of how boys are ignored and rejected by society. What he did was detestable and should be given life without parole. But beyond the superficial level this product of something else. This is not a mental health issue or gun issue this is the product of alienation and hatred for your peers.
What if the mental person has a cousin that has a weapon and takes it? How will that be regulated for gun control?
imagine if both the mental person and the cousin both couldn't get access to weapons so easily...imagine that!
Paul Ranalli well that’s not gonna happen anytime soon. 🤷🏻♂️
been bullied to the point of depression and nope never ever did I have the tiniest thought of violence at all
There is nothing anyone can do to stop this. Just be prepared for the next one. Be aware of your surroundings. You cant stop this problem. It will never end. You can only be prepared to save yourself.
Mexico and other countries that outlaw Guns give us a clear message , that is no the road to take.
I am Mexican from Mexico City to tell you the truth!! yes all of the people that want to do evil! can get guns and also the police. good citizens like us we don’t have the right any right to possess a gun to defend are self..
What we really need is more security at the schools just like the schools in Israel 🇮🇱
wrong
How can you even step outside unarmed in your dump country with cartels cutting people's heads and genitals off daily?
avsky321 his point is completely valid and you insult him? Gtfoh imbecile
avsky321 dump country ,no no no . Watch your language
Gustavo Moreno It is a dump.
That intro was a good video
Farhan Castro it really was a fantastic video I had to watch it twice.... I never noticed the guy in the beginning
God Bless america i love them too much
Oh, that was scary.
Omg..just watching that made me scared and sad at the same time.
Leave first person shooter games out of this. I mean it sounds like a solid argument but when you really think about it, what is the percentage of school shooters even playing these games? I think this has more to do with peoples obsession with guns and wanting to use them bad, mixed with mental issues of course.
1000% man
I agree wtf does a game have to with this .....
Too bad you don't understand what the man said
@Dozo G- LMAO, so what is your understanding man?? It's clear that his argument is based on "desensitisation" purely in reference to first person shooter games!! And your point is??
Yet again some clown is blaming violent entertainment for violence in America and yet they say very little about bullying and the extremely negative effects that has on it's victims. This video and the people in it are just misguided horribly.
I been through a lot. I understand a lot. I can understand someone's mind clicking, and in rage/anger/resentment/jealousy, etc. going off. Even killing people. What I cannot grasp is something in someone's mind clicking and they take a year, at least, and plan and plot and premeditate to go off. It makes no sense.
Omg I didn’t realize the warning signs... 🙏🙏 I’m praying for you Florida
“We’re not anti guns, we’re anti violence” I’m sorry but they fall under the same category to me and America needs to realise to stop this they need to change gun laws or just simply ban them. I’m from the UK so I’m just talking from the perspective of an outsider looking from across the pond, but why are guns always swept under the rug when a tragedy like this is becoming way too common? I love the American people and have been inspired by some of them by their passion and inspiration they have contributed to the world, but the people in the higher places and government of America need to face the truth and sort the gun problem out.
The National Rifle Assocition (NRA) is a very powerful organization that have powerful lobbyists who make sure that their politicians are bought and paid for and will protect the 2nd Amendment at all costs (even the lives of children apparently.). The conservatives in this country tend to be very outspoken proponents of the 2nd Amendment of the American Constitution, which is the right to bear arms. The NRA's power and some American's attachment to this amendment cannot be overstated. Banning guns will never happen. Most Americans, however, would like some form of stricter gun control. But as long as the politicians are being propped up by the NRA, things will never change.
that might've worked 50 years ago but they have more guns than ppl in the USA now. it's easy for the UK and Canada to say gun laws will fix the issue. you're on an island. but canada is getting illegal guns in from USA from ppl who walk across the border. they need a buy back program and higher minimum wages and policy of extreme kindness towards disgruntled young males. and bullet buy backs.
JayBobbles-Nope! Keep your guns. Gun violence wasn’t a problem when certain people were being killed by them. Just like drugs weren’t a problem. Now everybody is supposed to care about opioids. Nobody cares about anything until it happens to them.
JayBobbles I love your comments...wish we had more folks like you...Sadly many Americans are obsessed with guns, live in paranoia of being attacked or that the government will take thier guns and enslave them, not realizing they are already totally controlled by arms manafacturers, pesticide, pharmaceutical, tobacco, and the other corporations they give thier money to. It is so insane, scary, and heartbreaking. If we are ever going to curb violence, we have to meet these people in the middle somewhere. The government and media keep us very divided so we can't even talk to each other. For some more reasonable folks, guns are just a normal way of life. Many people have them at home or carry in thier purses...it like the old West pioneer days...we have never been community oriented like Europe, most Americans are for the individual and thier own clan.
Open your mind thanks for the kind word also, I think we can all agree that these tragedies break lives, families, communities and hearts. Maybe one day people will trust each other and not feel the need to defend themselves with something that only creates violence and fatality. In the UK if someone is caught carrying a knife they get a 5 year prison sentence and the only people with any form of guns in the UK are the armed forces including gun police (yes gun police a special gun unit used for terrorist and other conflicting and violent events that need guns to bring a situation to a stop) all other police carry tazers but no guns are present on the normal a normal police officer. It’s sad that guns will be sold because people buy them out of fear because of violent and tragic events like this. We as humans need to learn to respect and love and show compassion to one another throughout the world and war, guns and violence will cease to exist.
Well tbh we should make it hard for crazy people to get they're hands on a gun. Like no restrictions..AT ALL? It seems way to easy to walk up in a bulding and light the place up.. 😞😞
donald trump took that regulation off one that obama put
Tuna "Their", not "they're".
so happy i live in Canada...
I don't mind gun restrictions, but it's not going to change much. When you get your restrictions and madd killings by either knives, cars etc happens what are we going to do then? Just keep restricting the new murder tools?
There's still the real issue is kids growing up without stable families and bad mental health.
Eva Braun we already have car accidents and you can defend your self from a person with a knife.. But a bullet? Everyday people dont have bullet proof vests in their closets. I believe restrictions on guns would help more then cause more problems. And if nothing happens then parents or who ever buy/have guns need to watch them and not leave then un-attended enough so theyre kids can have access. If there is an emergency call the cops like a normal person.
Just because he is watching gun vids doesn’t mean he’s planning s school shooting
I’ll watch gun vids but I am shocked when there is a shooting
I can't believe she said this: " We aren't anti-gun, but we are anti-violence"!!! How ridicoulous is that??
Rather than the school system getting these kids help as required by the ADA laws that accommodation is supposed to be given to the mentally ill kids. Then they simply throw them away and let them be someone else's problem.
Each state needs public boarding schools that when kids are having behavioral problems or mentally ill problems and they can't be in a regular school... Then they send the kids to the public boarding school with clothes only and then they can give them the psychiatric help and behavior modification therapy while giving them the free education that the kids are entitled to by law. They can use farming the land with animals to get the kids to work together and learn social skills. They may not can save all of the kids but I bet they could save most of the kids.
Instead of helping these kids they throw them away and let them be someone else's problem.
The schools are getting shot up by current and former students usually based on how the kids were hurt and treated and thrown away and the kids are coming back for revenge.
It's time that the schools can't expell kids anymore and the schools take care of the kids and save them rather than toss them into society without any support system.
Mister Brookes their alternative schools are like regular schools but just have trouble makers all together. I am talking about a BOARDING school with a fence and psychiatrist help and behavior modification. I doubt if their alternative schools are any different than those in Georgia. Here kids just are bused to the alternative schools and are bused home. Their home environment should be questioned about if the child is violent etc. They learn from their parents. My niece was misbehaving acting like my nutty sister and I made her realize in grammar school that she was acting like her mama and she stopped acting like her mama and started behaving better in school. You have to treat these kids when they are in grammar school. If they recognize the problems in grammar school which they should then they can get help early on and be law abiding citizens the rest of their lives.
So start suspecting everyone?
Tuanicular Not everyone, just those who show signs described at the beginning of this interview!!!
I had to rewatch. Powerful!
The intro gave me nostalgia, only been a year n I miss school ): may my name in my desk live on and may the kids fly high
How many more life's will it take to make changes in schools security and gun regulations. My condolences to all the families may the Lord give them strength.
she said it's mystery how he got in. he was young , white and 18 that's how. keep it real. as long as u avoid the truth , this will happen over and over again
Edward Highland thank you for your honesty. I dont think most people truly choose to ignore this fact.
you dont have to be white to walk into a school and look like a student
Enough!!.We need to protect our children.
Why are we trying to make excuses for a mass shooter?
I love how Megyn Kelly does this whole segment frantically searching for a way to avoid blaming gun proliferation.
We have similar rates of mental health issues to most other western countries. And yet they somehow avoid regular school massacres. I wonder why that is, Megan?
young kid shooter's get an obsession with guns, that makes them feel so powerful, that kind of makes it different to bombs and knifes
New Town broke this country`s heart . The kids in Florida are giving us Hope again
I still can't wrap my head around how this kid was able to buy an assault rifle.. Seriously, it shouldn't matter what the weapon is, before someone buys a weapon a psychological exam must be passed.
Feminists encourage boys to talk about what they are going through emotionally.
+Christine Oriol, Your so right, especially boys taught "they are sissies to cry" , Preach Sista!
Feminists tell boys they are toxic and evil by nature.
That's a better point that people overlook. The common denominator of all these mass school shootings is that they are all males and have been described as outcasts. Part of the issue is identity and what drove these boys to commit these crimes. Both schools and parents need to do a better job of monitoring these students whether it's through therapy or more control of bullying. I've seen many fights and kids being picked on and most teachers won't do anything besides breaking up and suspending students.
I honestly think that's a fantastic start. Not sure how to begin conditioning men to express themselves. I only cry like 1-2 times a year. I can be irritable but most stress presents itself during sleep. Some people don't realize how damaging that can be. I realize it isn't healthy but it is difficult to be vulnerable.
feminists hate the word boy and think of every bad thing they can if they hear it so i dont think so
agree video games can twist an unstable mind, just like violent films we have seen many killers who tried to imitate scarface on film
You are so dumb. Its not possible to describe it in words. But stay naive, bluepilled sheep.
Wow, that video at the beginning was really something.
I hate the argument "well he could have used a truck". Virtually every mass killing in the US didn't use a truck though, did they?
