Shameless Opportunism
Igor Tregub apologized for his. Will Becky O'Malley apologize for hers? No, of course not. Raaaaar!!! Guns Bad!!!
Yes, guns make it too easy to kill some dude when you're having an argument. They let you do kill from a distance. Of course, since it's tough to have an argument from a distance, who knows how the two relate? Nevermind that we don't have the details yet, and it doesn't even look like the shooter shot because of an argument. He shot from a distance, which would require aiming. Which allows plenty of time for reflection.
Is the solution to ban all guns? Sure, that'll solve the problem. And then when folks still manage to get guns (and they will), we can be safe and comfortable in the knowledge that the only people with guns are criminals. We shouldn't have guns. We should rely on the cops. No, cops won't defend you, they won't have guns, either. But they will be able to file an accurate report, explaining exactly how you died. Thanks, cops!
