This is absolutely horrifying. Nothing like going to school on Valentine's Day and worrying about getting shot.
Local media are now reporting that the shooter is in custody.
How many people have to die until we approach gun control?

Gun control is not the answer as it is not the gun that makes the decision to engage in violence but rather the trigger puller.
This is naturally a very tragic situation, of course.

I suppose, but I don't believe civilians should own semi automatic weapons. Florida has some of the most lax gun laws in the country. There is no required permit to carry. "When drugs flood an area, people die like flies from overdoses. Is that a people problem? No. It's a drug problem."
I agree with you that we should be assessing mental health.
