"See Something...Say Something?"

6. Thank you for the post.

These sites are a promising start. The focus on schools, however, relies on two points of leverage: The school has counselling resources to respond, and the suspected perpetrator is likely a minor with limited civil liberties. Parents are empowered to respond. In cases like Columbine and Springfield, it might have helped. Oxford, Michigan and Sandy Hook demonstrate how parents can become enablers.

Many of the recent school shootings have been carried out by recently graduated young adults...Able to purchase weapons, but out of reach of those who could intervene.
