Yeah, well, tell us something we don't know. US will never give up its guns over their dead bodies (quite literally) so that argument is dead in the water unless someone can ever change the Constitution/Sacred Parchment, and I'm not sure anyone can.
Hell will freeze over before the US gets tough on gun control like most other developed democratic nations where stories like this are virtually unheard of. So stuff like this is just "part and parcel" of living in the US. Better get used to it, folks (if you aren't already). That's the price of freedom. So yes, "this kind of thing will happen again and again in coming years". It already does. And will keep happening for generations to come. Not much we can do about that. It's baked into the US psyche.
Shooting the dog for kicks was an extra low bar though (dog probably didn't even vote), but then the guy seems to have not been in a particularly rational mental state tbf.
(Just another "mentally ill" white guy. Of course, had he been a Muslim, especially a Muslim who wasn't white, the narrative would be a bit different. We all know how that goes... Now we'll get to watch gushing documentaries about how a good Christian preacher and devoted husband and father to 5 kids who devoted his life to helping disadvantaged people suffered a tragic mental health crisis and moment of poor judgement. If only he'd reached out to a friend or taken the time to speak to a trusted friend. (Seriously, men, talk about your feelings before it's too late.)
If only he'd been a Muslim; that would just be your run-of-the-mill Islamic terrorist incident and a further indication that the invasion continues and we need to get tough on illegals. Muslims don't suffer mental health breakdowns; they're totally in their right minds when they mow down innocents at German Xmas markets. It's just that they're taught to murder infidels at the mosque every Friday because their religion 100% teaches and condones that, doncha know? It's literally in their Scripture.
Obligatory /s tag for some Americans who don't get irony or sarcasm.)
Anyway, dark jokes aside, it's a horrible thing for the victims to go through. That woman didn't deserve this. It's one thing to be vehemently opposed to her views on abortion because you believe she's complicit in the silent genocide of babies; it's another to gun her and her husband down in cold blood.
What is really tragic is that we let our society reach this point. Dialogue broke down. So now we get violence
