So, having guns makes people safer, huh?
Well. Just to highlight two points here. This man:
1) Professional sniper
2) Killed at a gun range
Ironic? Yes. And, my goodness. This dude was good enough to make it into the Navy SEALs.
Gun issues aside. I am curious as to the murder's motive in this case. And this is one of the more crappier ways for a serviceman to die. At least, the killer is caught; and naturally, the due process of law will kick in.
