Okay I will.

BTW, I thought about what such laws could have prevented yesterday.

Once the son decided he wanted to do something like this, he could have overpowered his mom and forced her to open up the gun safe.

Does this mean that nobody with a mentally challenged person in their home should own weapons? And then what constitutes a mentally challenged person?

Somehow we survived not having these sorts of laws for most of our existence as a nation. We also survived not having gun safes.

It seems to me we need to define what has caused this shift, and quit blaming in on easy access to guns. We’ve always had easy access to guns.

I would submit, guns are not the problem, and what we need to focus on is. what is the problem.

I appreciate you not wanting to discuss this right now. That’s okay. I understand where you’re coming from.

Take care.

If I was a mother who owned guns, and I am.

I would want to make sure my guns were not going to be used against me if my son was an obvious psychopath. Everyone has to gauge this for themselves. It is an individual judgement.

Maybe she, as a smart woman, thought he was very normal, well adjusted and reasonable.
