I think we can safely say a) Zimmerman has anger issues and b) he is addicted to guns.

It's really too bad. Now I don't want you DU folks demonizing him, becuz I know you will. How much selfishness, suffering, and ignorance is inside such a person to drive this type of behavior? Where did we, as a society fail, to teach him as a child how to deal with anger and frustration? Why as a child was he never taught to simply walk out of the room and go else where, when he feels like he is about to explode with rage? And why do we tolerate soooo many guns in the hands of people like this?

We really have to do something about our gun problem. Thank goodness he didn't kill anyone -- this time. But what about next time?
