2. If so, why put 2 bodies in the truckbed?
And why drive it onto a golf course?
There's a LOT to unpack with this one! |

7. There certainly is
And why are they trying to figure out why the victim in his late 70s was in the area on business and where is he from? Perhaps it was some kind of hit job.

5. That is not what you'd expect from the original description of a "Hispanic male"
The university sent out an alert out warning students about the shooting. They said the suspect is a Hispanic male wearing a white t-shirt, work pants and possibly a hat. He is 6′1′' and weighs around 170 lbs.
https://www.wsbtv.com/news/local/ksu-warns-students-shooting-incident-near-school/WK4EMOXVDJHOBCPVRQ4ONMLVWQ/ Which may explain why they didn't match this guy to the killings at first. |

8. People Control, Not Gun Control
https://www.ajc.com/news/breaking-man-arrested-in-triple-homicide-at-cobb-country-club/7GY3RC7KSBCPBHHLDPFQCOJIEM/
Rhoden has been arrested before on violent crime charges. As an 18-year-old student at Georgia State University in early 2016, Rhoden and another man were charged in a double shooting that took place during an apparent drug deal, the AJC previously reported.
This is my generic response to gun threads where people are shot and killed by the dumb or criminal possession of guns. For the record, I grew up in the South and on military bases. I was taught about firearms as a child, and I grew up hunting, was a member of the NRA, and I still own guns. In the 70’s, I dropped out of the NRA because they become more radical and less interested in safety and training. Some personal experiences where people I know were involved in shootings caused me to realize that anyone could obtain and posses a gun no matter how illogical it was for them to have a gun. Also, easy access to more powerful guns, guns in the hands of children, and guns that weren’t secured are out of control in our society. As such, here’s what I now think ought to be the requirements to possess a gun. I’m not debating the legal language, I just think it’s the reasonable way to stop the shootings. Notice, none of this restricts the type of guns sold. This is aimed at the people who shoot others, because it’s clear that they should never have had a gun. 1.) Anyone in possession of a gun (whether they own it or not) should have a regularly renewed license. If you want to call it a permit, certificate, or something else that's fine. 2.) To get a license, you should have a background check, and be examined by a professional for emotional and mental stability appropriate for gun possession. It might be appropriate to require that examination to be accompanied by references from family, friends, employers, etc. This check is not to subject you to a mental health diagnosis, just check on your superficial and apparent gun-worthyness. 3.) To get the license, you should be required to take a safety course and pass a test appropriate to the type of gun you want to use. 4.) To get a license, you should be over 21. Under 21, you could only use a gun under direct supervision of a licensed person and after obtaining a learner’s license. Your license might be restricted if you have children or criminals or other unsafe people living in your home. (If you want to argue 18 or 25 or some other age, fine. 21 makes sense to me.) 5.) If you possess a gun, you would have to carry a liability insurance policy specifically for gun ownership - and likely you would have to provide proof of appropriate storage, security, and whatever statistical reasons that emerge that would drive the costs and ability to get insurance. 6.) You could not purchase a gun or ammunition without a license, and purchases would have a waiting period. 7.) If you possess a gun without a license, you go to jail, the gun is impounded, and a judge will have to let you go (just like a DUI). 8.) No one should carry an unsecured gun (except in a locked case, unloaded) when outside of home. Guns should be secure when transporting to a shooting event without demonstrating a special need. Their license should indicate training and special carry circumstances beyond recreational shooting (security guard, etc.). If you are carrying your gun while under the influence of drugs or alcohol, you lose your gun and license. 9.) If you buy, sell, give away, or inherit a gun, your license information should be recorded. 10.) If you accidentally discharge your gun, commit a crime, get referred by a mental health professional, are served a restraining order, etc., you should lose your license and guns until reinstated by a serious relicensing process. Most of you know that a license is no big deal. Besides a driver’s license you need a license to fish, operate a boat, or many other activities. I realize these differ by state, but that is not a reason to let anyone without a bit of sense pack a semiautomatic weapon in public, on the roads, and in schools. I think we need to make it much harder for some people to have guns. |

12. Yep. Look at all those anti-vax volunteers...
When I was growing up the NRA was all about safe training to handle weapons correctly and respectfully. Now they are a sales office for anything deadly you can add the word tactical to.
