Yesterday, a nutcase took a newly bought handgun into where he worked and shot four people in the legs. It caught my attention, because it is a handicapped employment facility across the street from one of the locations of the company I used to work for.
This guy had been diagnosed with depression, bi-polar disorder, and schizophrenia, and yet he was able to just walk in and buy a gun, by simply waiting for the delay period to be over, then he proceded to go shoot the people who were probably bullying him at work. Some kind of check should have been done on him to prevent this crime. Rather than registering guns maybe they should register nutcases.
As a (former) member of the NRA, gun owner, gun collector, outdoorsman, and enthusiastic hunter for many years, I have been strongly on the pro gun side of this issue most of my life. I don't want us to have to give up our guns, but something needs to change. I just don't know what.
FUCK!
