You make this statement and then you repeat it even after Clod and Ortho have already refuted it.

No. Most of us don't advocate training mentally impaired people in the use of deadly weapons; or, give them access to guns.

The scope of the report was deliberately limited so as to not cast blame. That's because under the circumstances of this case, it might be counterproductive to do that as it might discourage people from participating in future cases like it. That can't be extrapolated to hold Nancy Lanza, who was the ultimate authority on actions affecting her son, harmless from the ramifications of those actions just so that YOU could put the blame on guns (since you were able to find a report designed to not blame any people). You're trying to redirect this mental health issue in support of another agenda ... gun control ... and diminishing the actions of the key player is crucial to that objective.

Most of us hold people responsible for their own actions as is the case with Nancy Lanza. Only a handful like you want to nullify the people to blame inanimate objects. You've always had difficulty seeing the trees from the forest. Maybe you should learn not to extrapolate individual case studies into generalities.
