This was some variety of domestic.

And 'good guy with ..' - generally refers to someone on the scene who is acting in response to a incident or attack - not the perpetrator.

The vast majority of the mass shooters were "law-abiding" until they were not

I always say "never monkey with someone else's monkey". You might get monkeyed up.

When someone figures out how to just arm the good guys, then you can tell me about "good guys" with a gun. Until then, you're just arming bad guys and taking credit in advance for stopping a guy YOU armed in the first place.

Why do we use the vernacular of Old West movies in discussing a deadly serious issue?

Note: This is not a poke at the OP, but rather the NRA, which has infantilized the language we use to discuss the matter!
