She was responsible? Quite the opposite.

You are being asked why must a dead gun owner be insulted and dehumanized? Did not her life have value?

Why will no one comment on pro-GC recommendations to "shoot on sight"? Is it acceptable to execute a gun owner who makes people around them nervous or scared? Isn't it ironic to suggest the way to reduce gun deaths is to shoot people?
