At least two dead after man opens fire at Mississippi Walmart

Doubly appropriate because this is just a “run of the mill” mass shooting that happens literally almost every day in this country. The kind where it’s someone with a gun and poor impulse control who just got pissed off at one or more people and where bystanders became collateral damage, rather than someone looking to create maximum carnage by attacking strangers.

What the “good guys with guns” advocates miss is that this is the kind of shooter who may have previously been considered a “good guy.” The more “good guys” with guns, the more shootings like this end up happening. (Not that the “good guy” argument gains much traction in the Gilroy situation either, where a cop got to the shooter and stopped him within a minute - everyone shot was hurt within 60 seconds.)
