@ssimonvii@weareshiphero@aaronrubin Wow, @ssimonvii that’s ridiculous. I’m really surprised @weareshiphero hasn’t responded to my inquiry. Their lack of response seems par for the course. Sounds like maybe they should spend less time making videos and more time improving their customers’ experience.

@dc_price@allisunrae Again, not saying we shouldn’t improve support for Ss, but we have to draw a line in the sand and agree that we must report truly criminal behaviors to the proper authorities.
@dc_price@allisunrae The Brady Law establishes a waiting period and outlines the conditions in which an individual may be denied the ability to purchase a firearm. The NICS check pulls information from databases that can be updated by local, state and federal officials.
@dc_price@allisunrae Yes, it should surprise us that he is so violent. Lots of Ss experience grief and loss, few take the lives of 17 schoolmates. Did the loss of his parents contribute to his violent nature? Perhaps. Should we excuse his behavior on that basis? No.
@dc_price@allisunrae 2.) It also highlights that some districts intentionally downplay truly criminal behavior. We should absolutely find better ways to provide support to Ss, but we cannot ignore patterns of criminal behavior and such behaviors should be reported.
@dc_price@allisunrae 1.) It’s important to note that the school district intentionally referred him to SS instead of the police. If referred to the proper authorities, he could’ve fallen into 1 of the 9 categories included in the Brady Law that disallows purchase of a firearm.
