Circus arts should be a required subject in school. That way, people will be able to get attention without shooting anyone.
Insofar as attention is zero sum, making circus arts mandatory would not make those that are at risk of commiting violence more able to get attention. For that to work, you would have to encourage the relatively violent-prone to learn circus arts and discourage the relatively non-violent-prone.
Attention is not zero sum. I could be giving a lot more attention than I am.
But EDIT: I would not spend significantly more attention on someone who was performing circus arts.
