You can defend your home just fine with a pistol, shotgun or rifle why do you need an automatic weapon with 100s of bullets? How many invaders are you expecting?
Who had an automatic weapon? This shooter didn't and I cant remember the last shooter who DID have an automatic weapon. Either there is crime going on that is not being reported, or you have no idea what you are talking about. I kinda suspect it is the latter...
Uh, it's pretty likely, considering a self inflicted gunshot wound to the head is how the majority of these shoot outs end.
Yes, isn't that convenient. No one to counter the narrative provided by everyone but the killer. A senseless mass murder shooting and the shooter kill's himself and the person he lives with. Why do you think he did that?

Weapons are often traced to private sales. People can buy guns via private parties without a background check in most states. Easy enough to arrange a trade online. NRA fights against background checks for private sales.
So tell me, how are you going to enforce background checks on private sales? Did this shooter BUY his weapon from a private sale?? Ummmm... No.. He stole it..
Same reason I have the firearms that I do.. I enjoy them.. Why do you need two sets of dishes?
What kind of people "enjoy" machines designed to kill?
That's the problem with this sick country. Sorry, I get the idea of protecting yourself ... but multiple weapons because you enjoy them? You're part of the problem.

He had an assault weapon, and two semi-automatic pistols.
Ordering the killing of children is a tiny bit different from belting a child. But let's run with your analogy. If a father beat his child well past the point of abuse and that child grows up to beat his child...does grandpop have any responsibility for raising a monster?
As one who was brought up in the fifties, I can state that spanking (and whatever Yall' call corporal punishment) was used 100 fold more then, than now, and we had way less shootings like this. We didn't have condoms available everywhere, 'the pill' available, and abortions easily available, and our unmarried mothers were not so prevalent also.

imho, no.
We are born with God in our heart, those of us with a conscience. What we wish to do with that knowledge is up to us and the choices we make as we grow older, regardless of our experiences with the people in our lives, in the end our choices are our own, to own.
But see, it is much easier to pose the question, how could God let this happen, rather than own it and know that He had nothing to do with it at all.
I see to, this comes from people who by their own admission, don't believe in God.
