He was Almost a School Shooter. What Stopped Him?

Aaron Stark provides a unique perspective on America’s gun violence epidemic: inside the mind of a potential school shooter. He was stopped from committing that horrific act 25 years ago, when he was a teenager, and he explains why in an article for The Washington Post. Today, he’s a mental health advocate and joins Michel Martin to discuss his past and what can be done to prevent these attacks.
