United States President Donald Trump addresses his countrymen Thursday in the wake of a shooting in a Florida school that left 17 dead. He defies calls to address gun control, and attributes the incident instead to a crisis of mental health.
The 17-year-old gunman – a kickout from the school – is reported to have links with a white supremacist group, and has confessed to the crime.
It was the 8th mass shooting incident in America in the first 7 weeks of 2018.
