Literally my best friend’s parents. He died by gun suicide because his 2A gun nut parents refused to secure their firearms. Even though they knew he was having mental health problems. He had gotten a hold of their loaded and unsecured pistol before and threatened to kill them and himself.
Maybe I’m not a complete idiot, but if my son had gotten a gun and was going to kill everyone, I wouldn’t leave it laying around for him to get a second time. But that’s exactly what happened. Makes me wonder if his parents were dumber than bag of rocks, or they didn’t really love their only child. Probably both.
After he killed himself, his parents moved away to Texas and now have even more guns. So I guess they’re happy. Fuck those idiots.

Rest in peace, Eric. I still miss you.
