Interesting how anyone who voices an even slightly contrary view to yours is automatically labeled a “gun nut”. To be quite honest, not having access to a gun wouldn’t have stopped this man from killing his wife.

It's funny so many people self identify as gun nuts. I didn't call anybody but murders a gun nut. I know a ton of guys with weapons. That have fun with weapons. That are safe with weapons. I also know of guys that shoot weapon from their trucks that shoot after dark. That are unsafe with weapons. Those are the gun nuts. Not the safe and responsible hunters.

I ask you to refer to your above comment, where you may or may not have called the other commenter a gun nut.

Guns are not the answer. As a gun owner I enjoy shooting. And it's always the owners that are unsafe or worse that get the attention. I get that 99% of all gun owners are safe gun owners. But we have a problem and you can't fix a problem until you admit you have one. That's all I'm saying.

If that’s all you’re saying, might I suggest in future discussions saying that clearly (as you just did) instead? You came across very strongly as an anti-gun-for-anyone type.

The time to be meek is over. Obviously there's a bunch of people that are fine with all the mass shootings, murders and mayhem. I'm not one of them.

Plus that guy is just a troll. You want to defend him fine.

No one here has stated that they are “fine” with mass shootings, murder or mayhem. I have my own thoughts on what the root of the problem is, and surprisingly it isn’t guns. Guns are the most accessible tool used to perpetrate violence by those who have no respect for human life. If we didn’t have guns, it’d be knives, bombs, and any number of other weapons. Taking away guns doesn’t take away the violence, because at the end of the day it isn’t a gun problem, it’s a people problem. But God forbid our government focus on fixing its broken people and the societal issues that impact them.

You can't possibly know that.

You have no idea why he did what he did and what he would or wouldn't have done in another scenario. Speculating is disgusting.
