This has been an issue in Louisville for a long time now and what has our city done about it? Absolutely nothing, you can't even be in the city at night anymore without a high risk of dying.

He's a tall, attractive, white, college-educated man who was born on third base, extremely popular, a former varsity hoops star, and finance grad-turned-banker with a graduate degree. He's not some tragic incel in the basement or someone that was bullied as a kid. In other words the news media doesn't want to admit that the gun-toting maniac is just like them, or just like their kid. The problem is the guns. Not mental health issues, or bullying, or single parents, or social media - which every other developed country has and deals with. Guns. That's the whole issue.

Meh. California bans guns as much as possible and LA is still dangerous as hell after dark. San Francisco too.

Its a simple case of unrequited love. This man loved the system, but it didn't love him back.

He spent his entire life accumulating good-boy points. In school, online and at work he carried water for the system and acted as one of its enforcers. Come some minor economic contraction, and he gets jettisoned from his cushy position. He literally can not believe such a thing could happen to him. He thought he was a made man, and he got whacked.

So he just snapped and took revenge the only way he knew how.

That's what is scary about this to so many people. If this guy was disposable to the system, how safe is anyone else? So many people have their worth tied up in having the fancy white-collar job they got because they repeated the proscribed opinions. What happens when they become disposable to the system?

The NY Post reports that someone who knew him said he experienced a lot of concussions. The effects of CTE on behavior are well known at this point. Not to deflect to mental illness - the fact remains that most if not all of these people would be alive if he did not have unfettered access to guns.

With all the fixation on the WHY of this specific mass shooting, an important piece of context is that Kentucky has very loose gun laws and recently became a 2A sanctuary.

"Less than two weeks before Monday’s mass shooting at a bank in downtown Louisville, the state of Kentucky banned local law enforcement agencies from enforcing federal firearm laws.

The bill makes Kentucky a so-called “Second Amendment sanctuary” and prohibits local, state, or campus authorities from enforcing federal bans or regulations related to firearms, ammunition, or firearm accessories. It applies to any laws or regulations enacted since January 1, 2021.

On March 28, the bill became law after the Republican-led House and Senate overwhelmingly pushed it through, and Democratic Governor Andy Beshear neither signed nor vetoed the legislation, allowing the bill to become law."
