I often wonder why we have these senseless tragedies. Why does someone who appeared to be very bright and educated would go on a killer rampage. The killer was a Ph.d student in neuroscience. He was dropping out of the program but none the less he was educated and most likely very smart. He was probably depressed or stressed. Why however do you decide to go and take whatever is bothering you in life out on innocent people? If you want to die then kill yourself but don't kill others. The killer didn't even kill himself after this act of violence.
What causes a person to snap like that? He even took the time to booby trap his apartment in hopes of killing more people. Why are people allowed to purchase guns like semi automatic weapons? He bought guns from different locations in Colorado over several weeks. Why isn't there tracking to make sure these types of purchases within a short period are not allowed? There are a lot of questions I have and a lot answers we'll probably never get regarding his motive.
Life is fragile. It ends abruptly and often without warning. We do not know the day or hour but it's coming. I'm not morbid just a realist. Hug your family tighter. Live fully and try not to live in fear. Fear stops us from living freely. Make the most of your time daily. I know I do.
