“A couple of days ago a man was released from prison in Washington state after serving seven years for theft. His grandparents picked him up after his release, took him to their home and hosted a party to celebrate his newly regained freedom. After the party, he killed both grandparents and took their car, telling acquaintances that he was looking for a gun show so he could arm himself for an intended campaign of revenge against relatives and law enforcement personnel without being subjected to a background check. Congratulations go out the the NRA. Criminals and would-be criminals who want easy access to guns always know they have a friend.
Fortunately, he was captured at an Oregon motel (after a standoff lasting several hours) and was arrested on suspicion of murdering his grandparents.”
