6. Since the OP didn't offer anything, I'll pick up the ball...

Gun safety should be taught in public schools.

The man was obviously not properly trained in gun safety rule #4 - Be sure of your target and what is beyond it.

3. And?

What's the point of posting it in this forum?

[one-eyed fat man]

4. It certainly is unusual

I do believe it is the first time I ever heard of anyone killing someone else after they committed suicide. In every other similar case of murder suicide I've ever heard about the guy shot his wife first, then himself

[proteus_lives]

5. That's why it should be in GD.

I've heard of rare cases like this before.

But what's the connection to firearm issues?

7. The connection is obvious

All firearms in civilian hands are evil. Therefore strict gun control measures must be passed to ensure that they don't fall into the hands of criminals. In order to ensure that we need to disarm all law abiding citizens who own firearms.

Got it?

8. The horrifying thing is...

That some people really do think that.

9. You forgot the part where guns kick cute puppies...

[aquart]

10. Nah. Just use 'em for target practice.

11. And they pollute the environment with radioactive gunza rays..

.. and have to be stored in Yucca mountain for 10,000 years.

[jazzhound]

13. And they have the ability to reforge the character of their owners........

..........turning once loving and peaceful individuals into monsters who "snap" and commit a murder(s) they never would have committed prior to purchase of the evil device.
