And invest the money saved into mental help and remove the stigma of people needing mental help.

Also, people need to be more aware of their friends, family and peers mental state and try and spot the signs before the terrible events occur.

The guns are such a small part

This.

But it will never happen. There is no money in it. And we don't have the stomach for it. Some of these peoples only solution would be to warehouse them. A sanitarium/sanatorium type system. The Sandy Hook shooter and Colorado theater shooter are prime examples. They were/are NEVER going to be right. They will ALWAYS at some point become non compliant with meds. We are warehousing them. But it is in a prison system AFTER a tragedy.

Also, this would meet resistance because this would be a major government program. With both the system of facilities and the monitoring of those released to confirm they stay medicated. Then tracking them down and detaining them when they come off meds. I can the 60 Minutes stories on that already.
