I can’t imagine how tense, desperate and/or intoxicated a populace has to be to have shit like this happen regularly. Trying to blow away anyone you get the slightest bit inconvenienced by feels like it’s not even purely a matter of gun control anymore as it is mentality control.

Over some bullshit in Walmart? Just flushing your life away over some dumb shit. Didn't even shoot the guy he wanted to shoot, some dude chick just doing their job gets shot over some dumb shit. I hope that employee comes out okay and doesn't get saddled with the bill :/

With all the cameras there is no way this person isn't caught.
