re: #273 Obdicut

I wasn’t in the least bit trying to ‘explain the behavior’.

It’d take a hell of a lot more restrictive gun control than we have now to keep that mother from owning those guns. We’d have to basically limit gun ownership to those who can prove a need— and maybe not even then.

What we can do is say that she obviously didn’t have the guns well-secured, so we could regulate that, and make sure that gun owners secure their weapons, and if they don’t, take the guns away. Because a lot of murders— like this one— are committed by people using someone else’s guns.

I don’t think you’re really reading my posts.

Yes, I was reacting to your calling him a ‘kid’…Yes, he killed his mother…tragic. He should have felt guilty enough after that to kill himself. Going to the school where she worked however, goes way beyond ‘getting mom’s gun’…This is a time for sitting back and waiting for the information to come to the surface. Our armchair analyses are meaningless at this point. And that’s my point.
