The United States population has become deluged with weapons. Study has shown that the American citizens have more armed weapons than police do. The most problematic case of these weapons happen in schools. There have been a total of 19 school shootings since 2018 has started. Many take place in high schools where it's more dangerous for the students because it’s legal to purchase a semi automatic weapon at 18. This is still the same case for people with mental illnesses, Trump signed a bill that revoked the background checks on people with mental illnesses to buy weapons legally.
People have said multiple times the community needs to report someone who shows signs of mental illnesses so the situation can be taken care of immediately. But in some are harder to identify and have already reported that they were either a threat to the community or to themselves and it doesn't work. If you are 18 you can make grand decisions on your own and you don't have to attend a meeting to speak of your issues or feelings. So most just don't show up to the meetings anymore. Many countries before have put restrictions on weapons and haven't had any shooting issues in years. But the U.S. will never get the job done because the republican party is sponsored by the National Rifle Association that is a nonprofit organization that advocates for gun rights.
