I personally think that tragedies like this are a combination of several things.
Culturally born stigmas and beliefs with the people, who have been brought up learning about their inherihant right to defend themselves. Ease of access to highly dangerous weapons. The largely inexplicable, misunderstood, and inevitable mental illnesses that permeate brains like a bell curve could predict.
What is the easiest solution to begin prevention?
A cultural shift in mentality is close to impossible provided the U.S. history as a set of events to draw conclusions. The solution to all the mentally ill is also likely an impossibility.
What does that leave? The States I think should look at access to guns.
