What can you say at this point?

R.I.P

Anyway, have the republican candidates claimed that we would have avoided the tragedy, if every teacher and pupil carried a friendly-to-amateurs rifle or is it too early?

Not that I know of, but the customary twitter-feminist attempts to link shootings to "toxic masculinity" has started early this time.

Yes that actually happens.

Can't say nothing of course, but he did ask what religion they had to his victims, and he is repordely from Syria. Not saying anything more because I can't know how much is true. Looks like a valid gamble though.

Toxic masculinity is a real thing.

Yes, it's called chauvinism.

RIP to all victims.

As someone without strong opinions on the gun control debate, is there some cultural reason this happens so much in the USA and not other countries with high gun ownership levels?

Being bigger perhaps? This happens everywhere, look at Norway or Germany, it happened there as well, there are idiots everywhere and naturally more in a country with a bigger population,
