Yes, yes, the proliferation of guns is bad, but many of you are missing the point. If these criminals had not had a gun, they would have killed with arson or a bomb or by driving a car into a crowd.

Last week a guy in rural Platte County (near Kansas City) killed two young women by clubbing and then suffocating them. He had been smoking methamphetamine. No guns were involved - just a strong man with a damaged mind. He left so many clues behind, he was apprehended and charged in a couple of days.

As Bobert says "wacked out." I have read that fewer people are using bad drugs, but among those that do, their crimes are getting worse. I believe it.
