How can American society fix this mass shooter phenomenon?

I want to start off by saying I don’t mean what laws and regulations could be put in place because I don’t think that is the solution. This is akin to suicide bombers, you can have all the security and regulations you want, if someone is hell-bent on killing himself and taking people out with them they are hard to stop.
What I want to discuss is how we can change society to where we don’t breed people like this? Now I’m not saying mass shooters and crazy people didn’t exist in the past, but it is clearly more prevalent now than ever. What can we as Americans do to fix our society so that we don’t raise any more of these lunatics?
I mean it’s unthinkable to me that anyone I’ve ever been associated with could even dream of going into an elementary school and randomly shooting innocent children, but it is happening more and more, how can they be stopped?

This appears to be a mass shooting that occurred due to dumb luck of where this piece of shite crashed. There is literally nothing that can be done about this.
I love all the downvotes from people that clearly don't know what happened here.

It’s terrorism.
Honestly probably better security at these schools. That gets expensive.

Stop mentioning the shooter's name in the media for starters. That won't happen though

An armed society is a polite society.
Eliminate all the gun laws and the good guys, cops and other criminals will all be on an even playing field.

Get rid of the internet.

It isn't the total solution, but we need to start prosecuting the people who ignore or fail to act on the signs these little psychopaths display.
I am not sure I recall one of these shootings where the perpetrator was a well adjusted and normal kid who had no history of psychopathic shite. There are always warning signs.
We also have to rework our mental health systems in this country. It used to be that people could be institutionalized for being fricking crazy. Not really the case anymore.

Pay attention to your children and don't be a piece of shite parent.

Teach kids not to bow down to the class bully. Don't change because others needle you for what you are. Stand on your own two feet and persevere because those little dip shites in grade school/highs school have no bearing on how you choose to live your life and how your life turns out. They matter not so do not give them the satisfaction of letting them think they have any control.

Public execution, gruesome, painful stuff where a close casket burial is required after.

Eliminate soft targets like schools, churches, and places that are know gun free zones.
High profile people send their kids to schools with armed security. We guard our banks and money with armed security. We guard stadiums and event venues with armed security. It’s time we treat our children like valuable assets to protect.

Bring back the religious conformity of the 1940s-50s and a sense of belonging that comes with that.
Most, if not all mass shooters, are nihilist who take nihilism to its logical conclusion.
There is no evil according to their view because they acknowledge no reason for existence itself. So they kill.

Expand our mental healthcare systems. Open more hospitals for people to get treatment when they're struggling mentally. Make it easier for parents to get treatment for their children. I have several friends who have adopted children that have needed help and it's nearly impossible to get someone placed in a facility for extended treatment beyond 48-72 hours.

evil exists and will always find a way
it's a terrible and cold reality of our existence that there's not much we can do

Not getting rid of the guns.
Only other option is to get rid of the availability of masses of people.
More, but smaller schools.
