Strangers are easily available to blame for life's impositions. 

People isolated from society for whatever reason, doesn't have access to strangers in their life. Churches, shopping malls and movie theaters are all social venues where innocent people do not have control of their environment.

It is a sucker punch. 

In the Lafayette case, the family already had a history with him. He would not have access to those he believed is causing his pain. So, look for the next available venue.  

In actuality, no one knows if he went into the movie "Train wreck" for entertainment and then simply decided he would kill people or if it were a plan. It didn't seem ;ole a plan. He tried to mingle with people running from the theater, but, with the quick arrival of the police he decided he wanted to die rather than be killed or stand trial. That was not a plan.  

The country needs gun control, but, the government is corrupt and pandering to political donors. If we are serious about gun control then post signs on every building in the country, "No guns allowed inside." Then watch the red state governments outlaw the right to establish a "No guns allowed inside" rule that requires gun owners to walk into any place in the country. There goes the political ideology that every business has a right to conduct their own priorities. So, we can say today, the reason guns are causing deaths day after day in the USA is because of corrupt government. Now, get the lousy no good corrupt members of government out of office.

I was astounded yesterday evening and this morning how very poor coverage there was regarding the Lafayette killings. I was hard pressed to find the name of the gunman today AFTER THE POLICE NEWS CONFERENCE WHERE THEY SUPPLIED THE GUNMAN'S NAME and it was ridiculous to hear discussions of Donald Trump rather than the dead and injured. The country, including it's media, is being disinterested in gun violence. Deaths by gun is happening all the time and now it is simply part of the landscape. 

The USA is going a KNOWN path to systemic violence. I was floored when I realized the gangs in San Francisco were running rampant in that city. 

It was a Latin American country where the NRA went in and instilled fear in the people and told them the only way to protect themselves was to own and use guns in self-defense. Within six months the deaths and injuries had escalated right along with gun sales.

This is another "I told you so" moment.
