SHOOTERS ARE ALL "NICE KIDS"...?

UNFORTUNATELY THE STEREOTYPES FAIL IN THESE EXTREME CASES OF HORRIFIC CRIME...

LIKE MORIARTY IN THE SHERLOCK HOLMES CASES...SOMETIMES GENIUSES ARE MORE DANGEROUS THAT TYPICAL CRIMINALS...

THE TYPICAL CRIMINAL IS RATHER LACKING IN INTELLIGENCE...

ANYONE WHO HAS WORKED IN CRIMINAL JUSTICE WILL TELL YOU...COMMON STREET CRIMINALS ARE NOT REALLY "BAD"...THEY'RE JUST STUPID...!  IF I CAN USE THE "S" WORD...?

SO I WOULD SUGGEST A DIFFERENT METRIC...  

WE NEED TO START MONITORING PEOPLE WHO ARE FASCINATED WITH NON SPORTING WEAPONS...

A SUDDEN OBSESSION OR INTEREST IN NON-SPORTING GUNS IS A GOOD CATCH ALL FOR THESE TYPES OF POTENTIAL CRIMINALS...

WHY DO YOU WANT A GLOCK...?   TELL ME ABOUT THAT...?  DO YOU FEEL THREATENED...?  ANGRY...?  SUICIDAL...?

ANYONE WANTING TO OWN A HIGH POWERED WEAPON ...NEEDS MORE THAN A BACKGROUND CHECK...THEY NEED A PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATION...

YES...I KNOW ITS A "HOBBY" FOR SOME PEOPLE...  BUT THE MERE PRESENCE OF A GLOCK TO ME...HAS HORRIFIC KARMA... THAT THING WAS MADE TO KILL PEOPLE NOT ANIMALS...

WHY WOULD A NORMAL PERSON EVEN WANT TO BE IN THE PRESENCE OF THAT HIGH LEVEL OF BAD KARMA...?
