They're not dead for "no reason", they're dead because they were black and a single individual thought they should die. Our broad-based support for an armed citizenry makes it trivial for any individual to determine the right of any other individual to live, and he judged them wanting. You can't argue against his motives.

EDIT: Of, course, yes, you can argue with his motives. That's sarcasm. But the facts are that more or less by definition, any gun owner is a law-abiding responsible one, until they do something like this. And then they're "mentally ill". And that isn't going to change. I don't know how you do it, but we've just got to get through to people that guns are not a negotiation tactic in a disagreement - that if you have a beef with someone, it is improper etiquette to kill them.
