went wrong IN THIS VT CASE. A former FBI profiler was on FTN and he said he believed a big part of the problem in Va. was that a lot of people knew some things about this young man, but nobody knew enough. It was similar what we discovered in the Intelligence Depts. after 9/11. The FBI had some info, the CIA had some info, local police had some info, but enough of that info didn't come together in time to stop the attacks. In the VT case, teachers knew somethings, his parents knew somethings, the police knew somethings, the mental health community knew somethings, but enough of that info didn't come together to know how badly he needed MH treaatment. It also sounds like a few changes to Va. laws are necessary because the Court did at one time rule him to be in need of treatment, but Va. law says he had the right to refuse that treatment, and their privacy law says they can't report him to the police or the school authorities.

The Dems have been burned TOO MANY TIMES by their stance on gun control, and they are determined that won't happen in 08.
