This guy Cruz had a horrible life, there's no doubt. But that doesn't excuse his going out and committing mass murder. The people he killed did not make his life the misery that is was, and killing them only brings even more misery and murder into the world. There is no "fantastic" outcome. No mass murderer has ever caused a sea-change of how things are, as a result of the murder they commit.

The guy who shot up all those black people at the Tops Market in Buffalo - did he really think killing random black people, would stop black people from existing? Or prevent people from supporting black people? Mass murder never has the results these killers seem to think it will.

And how despicable to say that kids should be armed. No "Good kid" would ever murder another kid, whether that kid is good or bad. The minute you kill someone you've become a corrupt monster without redemption. GUNS ARE THE PROBLEM, they are NEVER the solution.

But it takes intelligence and maturity to see that. I am 65 years old. If you aren't, I don't expect you to understand and get why guns are so bad. So don't bother to reply if you're not old enough to get what I'm saying, it's a waste of your time and mine also.
