I watched this video a while back. At first, the title threw me off because I wondered why somebody would admit to thinking about committing a school shooting. It made me angry because at the time my best friend had recently been a victim in a school shooting and was lucky enough to make it out alive. However, once I passed the initial bias Aaron’s story touched me. It made me realize that we should be focusing on mental health and properly deal with the warning signs of a person who is planning to commit a mass shooting. I believe this video allows you to see things from a different perspective and really think about the ways we can easily prevent a tragedy. By the end of the video, you begin to be glad that Aaron admitted to his past demons because his speech helps us realize what these potential shooters are thinking about before they commit the crime.
