There's plenty of blame to go around. The guns, ease of access to get guns, organizations that want to keep the status quo, and parents... Yes, I do believe parents have a responsibility for their kids and keep firearms in a locked safe. We keep hearing the same back story every school shooting... Kid is quiet, keeps to themselves, and now takes an unhealthy measure on classmates that they were either bullied by or didn't like. The Santa Fe, TX shooter claimed to start his shooting plan because he was embarrassed by a girl he liked. This is an upside down world, truly, if kids immediately think about shooting people they were embarrassed by.
