if it helps, i thought the same when i read happy ending.. i also got a little sidetracked when evylin said 'reaching'.

it's an ongoing joke amongst the girls in my office that i am actually a teenage boy disguised as a thirty something mom.

Yep. Besides, child abductions sadly often result in sexual abuse. I am sure the investigators will examine the evidence, and tactfully and confidentially interview the child. It really doesn't matter in regards to the dead man, but it makes a difference in the boy's overall future and emotional well being. I would be satisfied not knowing - no reason to further stigmatize the victim.

My god. Forget I said the words 'happy' and 'ending' together if it made you incapable of focusing on the actual story. I should have known my audience better.

Apparently.

Once again...good guys with guns stop bad guys with guns.

Big surprise. This is why, when you get assaulted or your home is being broken into unarmed people call the POLICE and not an ambulance.

It is always good when the bad guy goes to the morgue and the good guy goes home

The bus driver didn't go home.

Let's arm them.

Yeah the POLICE are the good guys and should have guns.

Yeah the POLICE are the good guys and some should have guns.

Not every cop needs a gun.

Once again, more innocent life lost because some spun wing nut that never should've had a gun to begin with had easy access to weapons. Why do you gun nuts always over look the first part? Yanno, the part where these wackos should never of had access to guns in the first place?

What current or proposed law would've stopped this person from obtaining a firearm legally?

News reports have claimed that he suffered from PTSD, if this was in his medical file, and we did checks on people's mental state, this might have stopped it.

A big part of this conversation needs to be around getting used to the fact that there is risk in life. If you share a planet with other people, one of them could hurt you. It's a risk we all take and it's time we got used to it instead of always looking for new ways to curb the freedom of others.

As far as I can tell there is no national database for mental illness. Most states don't even have this kind of database.

I just think it's a stretch to say "If we had this law or that law, this would have never happened."
