    To be fair, this isn’t really a “gun control” type situation. A single, targeted, killing, would have been just a successful if it were done with a knife instead. The gun control arguments are more applicable to spree killings.

      Absolutely not. We simply have to deal with those killing sprees and just feel bad when it happens because the alternative is the state doing the killing sprees and nobody having any answer.

      I mean, the guy would have been able to write their whole message on one knife rather than needing three bullet casings to get it across.

      So I guess environmentalists and the metal industry (Big Metal?) would probably care a bit?
