That's the good ol American way on display...point fingers. 
[BLEEP] looking for solutions, that's too hard. Much easier to place blame.
Another shining example we've become as " world leaders". 
IF this nut does have mental,issues, let's start with keeping weapons out of their hands. Mental issues, such as those who cannot control finances and need govt intervention, for example, have no restrictions on a purchase. Not meaning to make this about gun control, perhaps there's too much water under bridge to do much about it...but on a no fly list? Mental disabilities? Can buy firearms? 
No one deserves this due to differences of opinions. 
Those pointing fingers or making excuses are the [BLEEP] holes who do nothing about it. 
Thankfully this guy was a poor shot.
