I know. It all went downhill when we let them vote. Now they can even open their own bank account and go to a bar unattended.

Sounds like this woman was not prepared to handle a gun. Good example of why training, a test and maybe a license should become mandatory before handling such a dangerous tool.

Her boyfriend probably murdered her, anyway.

I guess he thinks the 'dumb woman' thing will fly.

It is up to your parents at a young age, to teach you firearm safety, since the right to own one is inevitable.

Not teaching firearm safety and shooting training, is bad parenting in the land of the free.

And that license can be revoked at any time if you do something wrong.

But any idiot can walk into a store and buy a gun, no training no license required.
In many states not even so much as a background check is necessary.
You don't need a license to be a parent either. Now that's even scarier

Was it necessary to mention she was a "white" woman? Why?

Dead is dead...I don't care if it's with a vacuum or a rifle....

If you intend to kill someone, is does not matter what the person has in their hands...

But if you really want me to say yes...then yes...it's easier...

In the end, you are dead, and lets not forget the most deadly school attack was NOT DONE with a gun...

Can you name it?

Anyone can buy a car, whether they are a responsible driver or not.

Listening to you, I would imagine it was some kind of attack on a school with a blunt object.
