The kid in Illinois, the kid in Virginia, the man in Missouri, the woman in Louisiana...were mentally ill. Whether they were "bad kids" raised by "bad parents"...who knows? But clearly, they were mentally ill.

And we have such a gun loving culture that owning an instrument of death (the only reason guns exist is to kill) is a devine right.

People kill people but guns sure make it easier to kill a whold big bunch of unsuspecting people.
