A man pulls a gun, shoots 6 people, 3 die, one might very well die or be a vegetable for the rest of his life.

Yet excuses are being made by the community.

'I know this is tragic but tonight a mother is without her son' one person said in the media. What about those other three mothers who won't be able to ever see their sons again, or the one now sitting at a hospital bed?

'He had to carry a gun to defend himself' was another.
Yep, scrawny guy picking a fight with linemen....the gun as great equalizer.

How can anyone excuse a person carrying a gun into a party and pulling the trigger?
How can anyone defend a man having a beef with one other person and taking out 6 people in the process?
 
Can there be any excuse for killing, except in self defense? Sure it is sad for the fellow's family, but nothing compared to the victim and thier families.
