    Of course he could have done that step first but instead another damaged and armed asshole imposes his demons on others and inflicts grievous pain on dozens of families before offing themself.

    Yet another in a long list of isolated incidents because after trying nothing we’ve run out of ideas.

      It’s not like we’ve tried nothing; he should have been dealt with when he made threats, but the police don’t want to act on the laws we have in place. They want to wait until a tragedy happens so they can feel like they’re being heroes, apparently.

        police don’t want more stringent gun laws because tons of them beat their wives and they’d be disqualified from carrying guns

          I suspect they’re also worried we’d take away all their fun toys if the threat of constant gun violence wasn’t there.
