What do you see as the best way to address mass shootings such as the ones in Santa Fe, Sutherland Springs, and Las Vegas?

Effectively deal with mental health issues before individuals behavior escalates to harm themselves or others. Create and enforce a law that schools and public buildings have secure entrances and exits; use metal detective and explosion detection systems at these facilities. Use federally funded grants to train, certify, and arm teachers and administrators who volunteer to act as “marshals” in schools. Ensure local law enforcement agencies are equipped with training and equipment to respond.
