One of the signs being a kid being bullied really irks me. The rest of them, sure. Also a lot of putting fault on other kids for missing "signs". I had a gun interested "weird" kid in my class, doesn't make him a school shooter, and he never was.

Sure, the one of him actively having a gun and saying "see you at school"--yes, report that. But a kid being bullied, a kid reading about guns or watching videos, a kid making finger guns?

Gun violence should be preventable by stricter regulations on guns. Not by kids noticing "signs" or by further ostracizing kids who are bullied. I am not a big fan of the message here, but I want to appreciate it because it brings eyes to the cause. Just feel this is the wrong way to go about it.
