Destroy the false prophet who is pretending to see through time. Also disassemble any trollies near by just to be safe and put an end to this madness.

I mean it’s just the trolley problem, but if you oppose a specific violent procedure you probably wouldn’t use it even to hypothetically prevent more of it. I don’t think someone principally opposed to gun violence would shoot a potential school shooter. It’s against their morals. Also idk if this is a hot take but it’s wrong to kill people for bad things they haven’t done even if they’ll do them later on. They’re innocent right now and it’s wrong to kill innocent people
