Did anyone watch that show NEXT from the people who made 24? I might have been the only one, I've never seen anyone ever talk about it. There was a plot point where the evil Alexa tried to convince a kid who was being bullied to bring a gun to school and shoot his bully, and provided the kid with the keycode to dad's gun safe... it was pretty wild.
