Best would be if he chose not to show up but that wouldn't be one of these situations would it.

you know the population didnt quadruple since I was a kid but there are at least that many times the psychopaths out there now days.

Maybe we should start looking at what could possibly be causing so many people to become loons and those wonder drugs and the people that provide them a little closer.

How about a law that anyone who does not take their drugs on time gets fined 500 bucks?

Best would be children not afraid. best would be parents not losing the security. best would be mentally ill people not having to go without medications due to finances. Best would be a mentally ill patient not having a gun.

This was a "Bless _____ " moment. Nothing more. One of those "Hit my knees and thank God/Allah/Goddess/The Great Spirit/ The Spagetti Monster/ The Bookkeeper" kinda moments.

Happy? far from it.

A 50-something, having just ended a 33 yr marriage. Astounding.

She says she felt unloved. This is going to change that.

And you call me a dreamer Bama was right, compared to the last school shooting this was a happy ending. I would also guess that all the parents are happy their kids came home today also. But you are right, in a perfect world they guy would have been somewhere getting treatment and no one would have had to worry about anything. I feel sorry for anyone who feels they can't be happy until that happens. They are going to spend their lives being sad.
