Here's a better article, from the same source, with actual details. I'm not sure why they bothered posting this other version that doesn't say what sort of threats or actions the man allegedly did, when they already posted a version of the story yesterday with those details.

I guess my article was to show how cops sprung into action and stopped him. Like normal though, it is usually family members or friends that stop it.
Clap clap, now do schools
Catching the person before the act is hard.
Bullshit. Most of these shooters cried for attention and everyone was like, “yeah I could see that coming”
You are absolutely right. The family or friends just don't act. The signs are there but the disconnect allows it to happen, that's why it is hard to stop.
A tricky point . You have the right to bear arms except when and where the authorities don’t want you to.
...you must have missed the part where he is a felon, which isn't allowed to carry after their conviction, and the part where the family knew of his plans to attack others.
I’ve heard felons aren’t allowed arms and have wondered why the constitution explicitly denies them the right. Surely there aren’t laws to prohibit them.
I mean, you don’t have a right to shoot up an airport though.
That’s kind of the important detail here.
People are so passionate about the right to bear arms as protected by the constitution but seem just as happy stop others using laws that appear to conflict with that right.
