It's easier to blame the gun than to blame the person behind it....If the person behind it were to be looked at as intently as that of the weapon there would be far too much hard work for us to take the time and energy to look at the "why" and "how" someone could be violent, let alone kill someone that has/had nothing to do with him or his situation.  With that said....

Really nice post in the wake of a young man who lost his life and his family and friends who grieve for him, as well as those traumatized by this event.
