It seems to me a lot of these mass murderers were drug addicts or users, prescription or otherwise. So, they are committing felonies simply by answering “No” to the drug question on the federal application form.
A lot of them, yes. Probably half the crimes committed by people with legally obtained weapons have been committed by people who simply lied. But a lot of these killers get their guns illegally or get family members or friends to buy them legally and then hand them over.
I think we need to get a grip on the nutcase population, especially teenage or young males (which is when schizophrenia typically comes on). If they have a co-dependent person, usually their mother, sister or some girl they have gone out with at some point, they can survive until they are fully ripened homicidal maniacs (as they used to be called).
Right now, we have the radical left encouraging violence, and both of the most recent killers seemed to believe they were “protecting the planet” and doing “population control.” So all a nutcase needs is the encouragement of a violence prone theory, and the left has certainly provided many such theories.
Thank you Mozzafiato for calling these so-called “shooters” what they really are, viz., “murderers!”
Leftists want us to focus on the weapon used to murder, i.e., a gun, instead of the crime and the nature of the crime. It’s a crime to be a murderer; it’s NOT a crime to be a shooter; every time WE go to the range to do some target work or trap or skeet, we are SHOOTERS.
Keep up the good work. BTW, this is a topic where it’d be fun to watch the leftists debate...”Gee...ya mean they’re not mass murderers?”
