1-Was expelled from School after being identified as a potential threat and found with ammunition in his backpack.The police were not called because in Broward County liberals have severed the school-jail pipeline by forbidding reports to police.
2-Apparantly the gun was obtained from a gun safe in a friends house. The safe was a key entry model, the owner had what he thought was the only key. It wasnt.
comment here: key entry gun stafes are the stupidest thing you can do. That is why the expensive ones are combination lock.The owner of the gun should go to jail.
3-The FBI had one soft lead and one really solid lead but failed to follow up. "See something-say something" revealed to be a total joke.
I have to say this: the FBI was all booked up trying to get Hillary elected and then on to trying to get Trump impeached to do even basic investigative work.
4-The Police: 30+ visits. Unable to connect the dots that a mentally disturbed repeat repeat belligerent is stockpiling guns. No one apparantly helped them connect the dots. You may have read today that an almost identical situation was halted in Vermont. There, the community called the State Police. They acted.
5-The community and the neighborhood: People knew he was mentally ill, on meds, and stockpiling weapons. Aside from the one call to the FBI, no one was effective in intervention, especially School officials, but also neighbors.
6-the Meds. if it turns out to be true that he was on or recently stopped taking anti-psychotic meds, then that would be consistent with almost all similar school shootings. violent behavior, depression , suicide are all label listed side effects.
nailed it. thanks
Forgot to add: School is a gun free zone.
How did that work out?
COACH FEIS
The football assistant coach Aaron Feis who was also a security person at the school and died blocking the kids with his body SHOULD HAVE BEEN ARMED.
L According to Feis Facebook page, he lived in Coral Springs and was a fan of Ronda Rousey and Tim Tebow, the TV show Duck Dynasty and the movie Faith of Our Fathers. Among his posts were a quote from Billy Graham, A coach will impact more young people in a year than the average person does in a lifetime, and tributes to the U.S. military and an advertisement for a Concealed Carry Jacket with a handgun poking out of a pocket.
So Coach Feis Could have saved most of the kids Coach Feis SHOULD HAVE saved all those people.
But Coach Feis WAS NOT ALLOWED TO CARRY HIS LICENSED PISTOL.
The shooter apparently had major social adjustment problems and this factor seems to have been present in a number of these shootings. People did not perceive him in a positive fashion. This is a mental health issue of course and it could have pushed him over the edge.
“one look at the dude you could tell he was mental, why wasnt he in some hospital?”
perhaps a rhetorical question but it’s because we can’t just lock away people we consider to be mental.
Guess the “school-jail pipeline” isn’t such a bad thing after all.

QUESTION! WERE THE PARENTS AWARE OF THIS NEW PROGRAM?
Im sure they werent
That was only supposed to keep black children with 39 police visits from getting in trouble. This kids clearly abused the system!
/sarcasm off
So, black people got those kids killed!
So did the shooter have the gun safe where he lives or at his friend’s house?
program instituted in 2013 between the NAACP, Broward Schools and the Broward Sheriff’s Office SHIELDED NIKOLAS CRUZ from being prosecuted for all of his crimes committed at school. Prior to this 2013 agreement, Cruz would have been subject to arrest by the BSO at Parkland HS.
Law enforcement was not informed that Nikolas Cruz was selling knives at the school cafeteria, bringing ammo to class, or engaging in assaults at Parkland High School because this asinine agreement forbids the school from informing local law enforcement. The agreement shields law-breaking students while on the school premises. Nikolas Cruz risked no legal consequences for his criminal behavior.
I know that, it was just a comment, he looked mental, even mental people have rights, but he was reported to the police and the FBI and yet he was never really checked out.
