    Job One for anyone who really wants to keep the peace should be to arm the public ASAP. An armed public can easily deal with every kind of dangerous criminal.
    Armed police clearly cannot do that.

    Those are not constitutionally protected rights.

    And yet, they are means to commit mass murder, if someone cannot get a gun.

    Big Bad Government is the great existential threat to humanity.
    Violent criminals can easily be dealt with by an armed citizenry.

    Maybe yes, maybe no, but they would have had a better chance and it would have taken longer.

    Well I'm betting he knew he wasn't going to need money after he lived with his grandmother so her pending and social security probably paid all his bills.

    A few weeks of selling ass could get you there probably what he was doing.

    Yeah well the boarder patrol officer that went on violated protocol. He was injured too.

    That's why I think if they are already there their life depends on their actions

    A gun that a crazy can buy for $1,000 forces Texas taxpayers to invest millions to secure their schools.

    This is the society you want to live in.

    You stated:
    Yes, but if he can't get a gun . . .
    Your implication: if you can't get a gun, you can't commit mass murder.
    Obviously, you're wrong.

    Mother was a druggie, and father worked out of town, probably to avoid the mother.

    What's crazy is these people want the gov to provide their food, shelter, safety, and anything else they feel entitled to. All while forgetting that any gov than can give you everything you need can take everything you have. Even the scotus said the cops have no duty to protect people.

    Sometimes it's the gov, sometimes it's guys like these who are trying to give everything away to the criminals around us. Good thing so many of us stay strapped, not just for ourselves but those around us.

    EU :) Right! You might want to study your countries violent past, and I'm pretty sure the children suffered greatly once King slaughtered the commoners.

    I'll have to research that one. Thanks for the tip.
    EDIT: Holy sheepdip! The guy is in cuffs! I would have thought there be government immunity over this. https://archive.ph/R4IQw

    While you are at it, you can construct your own kangaroo courts and stuff the juries with your friends.
    You will then qualify as a fully formed third world lawless state. No doubt the NRA will be the steering committed.

    So why do you insist on repeating such historical slaughter long after we grew out of it?
