Two mass shootings in just a few days

When is the conversation about comprehensive mental health care provided to all Americans going to really start?

What exactly are we doing with all this damn money, huh?

Top 10% wealthiest Americans have over $30,000,000,000,000 in wealth and we’re out here killing each other because mental health care is stigmatized and out of reach of a lot of people that need it the most. With all this wealth they do nothing. They don’t deserve it.

When are the [i]real[/i] conversations going to start? Not “it would nice”. Not “can we please do this”.

But “we will do this or this whole thing will burn”. Our leaders work on this or they GTFO of office.

Without that kind of freely available mental health care, a society that uplifts the individual instead of grins them into the dirt for the sake of the machine, and a society that says “I need some help I cannot do this alone” what is controlling guns going to do?

A painkiller at best. A bandage. When is the real conversation going to start nationally and not just in these enclaves of leftists?

Guns, stamping out hate groups…they matter. But when are we going to as a society decide to start treating the disease?

So many parents who refuse to get their kids help ...the Michigan hs shooter, for example. Young kids cant get there by themselves. We need better mental health offered in public schools and we should look at giving kids some personal rights to seek free care when their parents won't. A hotline for teens to anonymously report kids they might be worried about and afraid to speak about. ..the hotline could contact the local authorities. The kids school. Etc..
