With Spree Shooters, An Overwhelming Majority Of Gunmen Are Previously Known To F.B.I.

Invariably, when yet another mass (or, unfortunately – in this case – school) shooting occurs, the public eye turns to the discussion of gun control and reform.

Though the debate over how to implement changes to U.S. policy to stop any future slaughters have well intentions, a startling revelation involving spree shooters is constantly overlooked with each successive incident.

In overwhelming majority, most shooters are previously known to the FBI prior to their massacres.

Less than 6 weeks before the Parkland, Florida school shooting in 2018, the FBI received a tip complaining about the soon-to-be shooter and no one from the agency followed up.

Now all those kids that will move into adulthood are already labeled special needs even if they aren’t.
