The issue, as lawless Republicans in Congress would like you to believe, is NOT mental health but gun control. Doesn’t mean that this shooter was not mentally ill, but people who do not have easy access to guns would not be able to kill.
Sure, the issue is mental health, not gun control. Specifically, the mental health of people opposing gun control.

This breaks my heart.
Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve on the Minnesota shooting: "The sad thing is we can't sit here and tell them that help is on the way. Because we're not going to do a damn thing about it."

It’s the first week of school for many—a time that should be filled with joy, not grief. Those children in Minnesota were at Mass when their lives were stolen. My heart goes out to all impacted by this act of violence. Gun violence has no place in our schools, our churches, or our communities.

Frey: And don't just say, this is about thoughts and prayers right now. These kids were literally praying. It was the first week of school. They were in a church.

Frey: "We need an assault weapons ban nationwide. We need to have a high capacity magazine ban. And if the federal govt and states aren't gonna act, give us the ability to protect our constituents. Give mayors & council members the ability to protect in Mpls 435,000 residents that call Mpls home."
