“But self defense” that’s not what I’m talking about. I’m talking about gun owners who have wet dreams about taking a life

Yeah. The reason a student killed his parents on my alma mater’s campus was because his dad needlessly brought his weapon from an entirely different state to pick up their son who had been admitted to the hospital for being a danger to himself and others during a psychological crisis. The son found the unsecured weapon in the family car when they were moving his things out of the dorm. He brought it inside and killed his parents. The helicopters overhead still haunt me.

and you know what I was most scared of? Not the kid who did it being on the loose for a few hours… it was how many local people strapped themselves up with their weapons and suggested that they would personally shoot and kill the student if they found him… THAT was my biggest fear, just further unnecessary gun violence and death.
