Regardless of who did this or why, I wish to extend my condolences to those whose loved ones were injured or killed in this attack.

Terrible. Terrible apes, doing terrible things to other apes. Over an imaginary Sky Ape. Over wounded pride.

That this ape didn't have a semi-automatic or automatic firearm is a cold comfort, but it probably kept the death toll down.

@1 - That first clause is unnecessary.

Since it only took two comments to bring up guns, I'll bite.

There's no way to tell what would have happened if the terrorist had used other means or if other means of defense were available to the victims.

Personally, I prefer having the option to defend myself and my family against a violent attacker with equal force, instead of what other people think is best for me.

I also support anyone else who chooses to defend themselves and their families against a violent attacker in another way, such as calling 911 and hoping for the best, or running away or by cowering in a corner and begging a terrorist or violent attacker to not hurt them please. That's their choice.

Personal choice is good and I don't want to limit how people protect themselves, and I certainly don't want them limiting the same to me, given that everyone's circumstances are different and a one-size-fits-all 'solution' will never be the answer.

Please wait...
