Murder suicide in Orlando: Stalker boyfriend guns down ex-girlfriend in Orlando

[ddeclue]

and then commits suicide near the University of Central Florida.

Guns + crazy delusional entitled man who couldn't accept no strike again.

1. Gun thread!

:popcorn:

[arcadian]

2. In before the gungeon!

[ddeclue]

3. IBTG?

:rofl:

Just reporting the news....

[arcadian]

4. Yeah, flvegan started it.

I just rolled with it. :rofl:

5. If she were armed, there would only be one person dead.

*ducking*

6. Keep saying that gun control works and helps prevent this...

I know, I'm from France, the country with the highest gun ownership in Europe and yet a very very low rate of murder by said guns.

Once every 5 years a guy goes on a spree and it makes news for a couple years, while people ask how the man ended up doing that, not if guns should be outlawed.

And yet, gun ownership is guaranteed by law, but just not everything.

I knew of ONE gun nuts, just one. Most of my friends had guns, usually 1 to 3, and none would qualify as gun nuts.

[KonaKane]

11. The Democrats have to get over this...

It's one of the last remaining "loser issues" for us. I am a gun owner too. Not a nut.

Just someone who doesn't want to be caught with the pants down at the wrong time, for a principle based on a fallacy.

[AzNick]

12. But you will agree some people should not own a gun

Illegal immigrants, convicted felons and also people who have psychological issues.

The problem is that because there is little gun control, these people often own guns.

[KonaKane]

13. Of course. I'm not against gun control. I'm against gunphobia.

.

[AzNick]

14. Same here nt

[Merchant Marine]

16. All of those are prohibited persons

If they're armed, they're illegally armed.

[AzNick]

20. Actually barely any control is done...

Just so you know.

[Merchant Marine]

22. What do you think the NICS background check is?

And is the lack of enforcement the fault of legal gun owners or the government, hmm?

[AzNick]

23. How about illegally obtained weapons? And the gun show loophole?

And regarding people with psychological issues, nothing is done, really.

All it would take is a yearly interview.

[slackmaster]

24. There is no gun show loophole

The laws requiring background checks have no exceptions for gun show transactions.

[Merchant Marine]

25. It's still a felony to sell to a prohibited person

Write some letters to your congressman and police chief if you want to see the laws enforced.

As to "psychological issues", our privacy rights tend to get in the way of what most authoritarians would like to see done.

18. Illegal immigrants?

[Mike K]

19. I didn't know -

- that gun ownership was so prevalent in France. What you've said reinforces awareness that access to guns is not the primary cause of gun violence.

[AzNick]

21. Mostly for hunting, though

But quite a lot of 22LR rifles with scopes (very lethal) and handguns, mostly 9mm and .357 (which is very popular in France due to its popularity in domestic movies and the fact that the Manhurin factory assembled German weapons for a while).

7. are there more murder suicides these days

or are we just hearinga bout them more ?

[shadowknows69]

8. Fuck me. We live in stormy time friends. Stormy times.

[xchrom]

9. Recommend

[MichaelHarris]

10. if we could have only armed them all

then only the innocent bystanders would have been shot in the crossfire. What's wrong with people, can't they see the need for more firearms? We have to save the children! (my Sally Struthers voice)Please people buy more guns, the children and loved ones need bullets in them.

[SteveM]

26. Something you may wish for, but not I. nt

[proteus_lives]

15. Blaming guns is lazy.

And cowardly.

Put the blame where it belongs, on the pathetic jack-ass who committed the crime.

[proud2BlibKansan]

17. How sad.
