This is the kind of crap that tells me that someone doesn’t deserve to be sucking oxygen right now.

A gunman opened fire at an off-campus student party at a Stillwater hotel early Sunday, killing one person and injuring three others, police said.

The shooting occurred after two men attempted to enter the invitation-only party at a Stillwater Holiday Inn about 3 a.m. Sunday, said Lt. Michael Metcalf. When the men were denied entry, one of the men pulled out a handgun and fired several shots at partygoers inside the hotel room.

“Apparently, the suspect and another individual showed up and tried to crash the party,” Metcalf said. “When the people that were hosting the party said that it was by invitation only, an argument ensued and (the suspect) fired several shots into the room.”

When you get down to it, this is a perfect example of the real problem we have with violence right now.  It’s not the guns.  Only an idiot would think that banning guns would have stopped this, since anyone like this isn’t going to be deterred by gun control laws.  The real problem seems to me to be that some people aren’t learning any kind of impulse control.  Frankly, I blame the touchy-feely, don’t-spank-the-children, positive-reinforcement-only numbskulls for it.  It’s possible that the shooter had good parents who punished him for breaking the rules, but I highly doubt it.  If we look back at the shooter’s record, I have little doubt that we’ll find that he had lots of run-ins with the law and little punishment for previous bad acts.
