    Well clearly the young women should've traveled with an adult male from their family, and either

    A: had him go to the door and explain the situation or
    B: be a good guy who had a gun on him and fire back, stopping the bad guy with the gun or
    C: not been randomly driving in someones driveway accidentally provoking someone to overreact and fire a gun into their car.

    Clearly, had she also not been dressed provocatively, she'd still be alive. Clearly she had a mental condition, as he did, but he was in the right because he was protecting his private property which they clearly (checks notes) drove on his driveway to turn around...

    Some people are nuts.
    Some of those nuts are harmless. Some of those nuts are aggressive and volatile.
    The solution apparently is for aggressive volatile nuts to have as many guns as they can stockpile.

    Solution is improved access to education and healthcare, including better pay for teachers.

    And locking up assholes who attack nonthreatening people. With or without a gun.

    I wonder if this kind of violence is going to become the norm like school/church/mall shootings have become.

    There have been a handful of these types of cases lately.

    Too many people with guns are too eager to use them

    Just wait until the repercussions from these new permitless concealed carry laws start to trickle in.

    You just reminded me how much I miss Publix though. Those deli sandwiches are the best.
