Comments on: NIU Shooter Described As "Gentle, Quiet"

Steven Kazmierczak Struggled With Mental Illness; Duffel Bag Of Ammo Found In Hotel Room

[shalom2u-2009]

Homicidal rage is spiritual darkness, and the spirit of Satan blinded his heart and Steven murdered his former classmates. He committed suicide knowing he
would be judged by a living God for his actions. Hell is Satan and Heaven is Christ Jesus. He choose his destiny.

I agree with you that more guns will just make the situation in colleges and universities even worse. I''m going to colege right now and after seeing how some students attend classes (some even under influence) I would hate the idea of them having guns too.

However, these statements are pointless:
"The Department of justice reports 82,000 defensive gun uses per year. Most of them are against "unarmed criminals or those armed with weapons other than firearms"
"The FBI estimate that since the gun owner had a gun and the criminal was unarmed or had a lesser weapon the life of the gun owner was never in danger."

A weapon other than a firearm can be a knife, which is considered a deadly weapon. The above statements can be interpreted as "Thanks to the victim having a gun, his/her life was not at risk". If someone breaks into my house, I WILL assume they have means to hurt me and shoot them on sight. Why? because the opposite can leave me or a loved one covered with a sheet. I have seen people killed over a pair of shoes so the value of the property is irrelevant. If someone tries to rob me, unless I see BOTH hands empty I will assume my life to be in danger.

Japan has probably the toughest laws on gun ownership, yet they still have gun crimes and murders. In short, those who really want to... will always find a way to...

You sound extremely anti-gun, I just hope you never need one and not have it since it will either scar your life forever or end it.

I can''t wait to watch the Today Show on NBC this week.
It will be nothing but special coverage on the life and times of the shooter. Did he send them his videos exclusively? I''ll bet Matt and Meridith are sitting at the express mail slot as I type.

Maybe he just wanted his own special on the Today Show? And he''ll get it!

Has anybody stopped to think that it might not be this idiot or guns to blame?It could very well be the idiot that gave him his prescription.Nobody''s said anything about what he stopped taking.Thanks to the Reagan administration,drugs are more or less tested on the public anymore.I was having trouble with depression a few years ago,and saw a doctor about it.I can''t even remember what it was he gave me.On my next visit,he asked me how I was feeling,if the pills had helped.I told him I wasn''t depressed,but if I kept taking them,I was going to end up killing somebody.He changed the dose.I tossed the pills,never went back,and more or less rode it out until it passed.

Wake up!!!! It is NOT gun control. We need more mental health screening. We are letting these loonies out of treatment and nobody cares. Case in point "Richard Chase" in Sacramento, late 70''s. He used KNIVES. Killed a women and her fetus in Town & Country area one morning, and a todler, women and man in Country Club area. He was an "A" student in high school, perfect attendance (NOT) and in a mental institution, biting off birds heads and drinking the blood. Nurses were quitting. He was released and went on killing rampage with KNIVES!!!! Gun control won''t solve the problem. Now they want the MEDIA ATTENTION and we should be paying attention before the masacre''s. Wake up people, politicians, parents, courts and media. Find them NOW, not later.

Insaneville, US and A.

And of course it is always the society and social people who do the craziest stuff. The rest are scientists and inventors.

Sorry, it was what I posted, some one else took part of it out.
I never said everyone who has a mental deficiency will shoot someone, I''m sayng some do BECAUSE of their illness.
