What is heck is this trash all about? I am a (proud) firearm owner, and the thought of killing another human being has never even crossed my mind. I just cannot wrap my head around what would compel someone to go on a shooting spree, especially a random one. :confused:

I donno what drives people to do this, its insane sometimes to see what some people will do in this world.

[maxama10]

This really hits close to home; we used to go there all the time. Unbelievable

[FARMER00]

i am also a proud gun owner i wouldnt point a gun at anything other then a target or a animal (with the proper tags)

[tbizzle0]

wow, this just baffles me. i'll be 21 in may, so i'm not much older than this guy. man, i remember that age. just out of high school, totally psyched on starting my life and making a future for myself. and now, i'm almost to another milestone (bars, here i come :cool: )

man, i can't think of what would drive someone this young to throw it all away and end their life so early.

maybe he just wanted attention? being a teen myself I sometimes strive for some attention too, but to do something this rash is unnecessary. To take away lives of others, if he wanted to shoot someone why doesn't he take up paintballing...

attention is something easily earned (example: music, art, speech, sports... personally I dance)... it really does perplex me as to how someone will reach the conclusion of killing for attention.

still, cold blooded killing like that is disgusting...

Thank goodness for a CCW un the state of Utah. This is why concel carry permits are GOOD. Bad guys will always have guns, good guys may not some day. What will you do then? Talk about a deer in the headlights.

It was an off duty cop that confronted him, not a civilian. CCW laws don't really matter here.

[grEnAlEins]

I feel sorry for the cop that shot him. It cannot be easy to do, even under these circumstances. This man is probably going to have problems coping for the rest of his life. As to the question of motivation, I am thinking that it could have been a police assisted suicide now that I think about it. That makes me sick :(

[warbeak2099]

And that's why I'm getting a concealed carry license as soon as possible. Bad guys starts something, I'll finish it with a .45 ACP to his damn, stupid head.

yeah, but no. Even cops have to have a CCW to carry. I had a cop in my CCW course.

a while ago some kid just started randomly talking to me about how he used to sell guns illegally until he was caught.

for some reason, the screwups and drugdealers just start talking to me based on how i look, even though im a straightedge and straight A student.

Use the knowledge as leverage and become an armed to the teeth vigilante superhero like Charles Bronson in Deathwish.... and Deathwish 2, Deathwish 3, Deathwish 4..., Deathwish 10, Deathwish 11..., Deathwish 251....
