27. Don't expect a straight answer out of him.

I've asked him several times if he really believes that criminals will obey a law that forbids guns outside of the home and he will launch into a long winded, incoherent, jumbled speech and I still can't get an answer.
To answer your question, there is no proof that this man had mental problems, he had anger problems, he could no longer control "his woman" so he probably thought that if he could no longer have her, then no one else would either.
In my line of work, I have seen this far too often.
