Very sad news. Loss of lives. Why every one is so hot tempered that they cannot solve problems or disputes by calmly discuss it? Is it due to ignorance, illiteracy or simply stupidity. Why some people do not have any self control. Killing others for little arguments or heated discussion does not solve any problems.

In criminology he is termed a "family annihilator". This act is fairly common when a man fails as head of the family.

Why was a gun given to a man not in control of his mind?
