I disagree with your analysis at these two points. Having worked with mentally ill patients for 20 years as a Chaplain, I can tell you that one glance at this man instantly revealed an abnormal individual. His mother knew this. She found his behavior abnormal, and consulted with others. The problem was a lack of rational and effective decision making, which would have forcibly hospitalized him as a danger to self and to others. But here too is a lib denial of evil. As a southerner, I am sure you know "A Good Man is Hard to Find", Flannery O'Connor's short story which masterfully skewers this fantasy. I agree with you that controlling guns is simply an avoidance of responsibility, projecting the real problem on others.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
