So do I. Also, this latest killing had nothing to do with gun control. None of the proposed legislation would have stopped him from buying guns, and it seems that none of the current mental health reporting requirements would have prevented it either. Short of banning and destroying all guns, you can't stop crazies and crooks from getting them. And if he had not had guns, he would still have killed. Half of the fatalities were stabbed to death and several of the injured were hit by his car. He was going to kill. Being able to buy guns might have made it somewhat easier, but nothing short of being locked away in solitary would have kept him from killing. He was just so badly broken - a paranoid psychopath of the worst type. His writings and videos are the scariest stuff I've seen since Ted Bundy or the Unibomber - neither of whom used a gun.
