I blame his teachers and professors, they even said it, they were scared he would snap. Why the hell was he still at the school.

Society failed the victims in this event, and as liberal as it sounds coming from a hawk like me, the shooter to an extent was a victim.

There were actually people stepping forward and warning about this particular individual, including teachers.

And there's more . . . . police involvement with this individual:

In all honesty, I would think it would be more likely in the 1950's that an individual like this would exist without comment or help than it would be in today's society.
