MENTAL CASE. Should have been institutionalized permanently. Meanwhile no one mentions the fact that the ‘Evil Gun’ he used shot NO ONE after he dropped it. Inanimate objects are tools. Evil people are criminals.
Absolutely.
This is not about guns, or who is carrying, or gun control. This man, like almost every other recent mass-murdering perp, has a history of mental illness.
As long as we respect the freedom of the mentally ill more than we respect the safety of our population, this is going to continue to happen. Current law prevents pre-emptive action. We refuse to lock up a homicidal mental patient until after the deed is done.
Removing all guns will not address the issue. They’ll just use explosives. The Columbine perps had explosives ready, James Holmes rigged his apartment to blow up, look at what McVeigh did with a truckload of fertilizer.
Would you rather be taken out by a gun or a suicide bomber?
This is a mental health problem, one our society does not want to discuss.
