Watching news unfold in MA

This is unbelievable, that this is happening in our country! Honestly, I hope this guys just ends it himself - it would save a lot of taxpayer money. However, I'm not sure if the victims would feel the same way.

It also has me thinking about the whole gun control debate. Should we start doing background checks on people who want to buy pressure cookers? How about nails?

I agree that standards need to be tightened on buying guns, but the people who really want to be evil with the use of weapons will get their hands on them however they can.

It also saddens me that these were immigrants who became citizens. Should we create tighter standards for those who want to become citizens, then, instead of leaning towards giving every current illegal immigrant citizenship?

Just random thoughts on everything going on... not looking for an argument, but other perspectives are welcome to help educate on different thought processes!
