This is truly a tragedy, and as these instances keep occurring it will be just a matter of time until drastic measures are taken by authorities and government to try and curb gun violence.
Given that weirdos outnumber violent psychopaths by an incredible margin, that's nearly impossible to do. Nobody wants to hear that there was little to be done to avoid these types of massacres, but it's the truth.
If there were aggressive investigations into people "displaying signs", they would be completely overwhelmed with baseless cases of people who are just screwed up and non-violent and become jaded, leaving a true psychopath to slip through the cracks.
If they actually did have the resources to truly put down on most of the cases that came through their doors, then you just have a lot of people who are harmlessly abnormal getting trashed on by the system.
Government agencies are simply too incompetent to ever work this out. We'd just end up with a Child Protective Services-like agency that wastes a load of money and lets real demons slip through the cracks, constantly under the barrage that it needs reform. This of course would just waste more money, abuse more people, and still be completely ineffective.
