From Hero to Zero

The conviction of Oscar Pitorius for the murder of his lover Reva Steenkamp is seeing as a turning point in public awareness for the problem of relationship violence. Of course the problem of domestic violence is often interconnected with the problem of gun violence, especially in countries with a permissive attitude toward gun ownership(like the US and South Africa.) Just a few months ago Ronald Lee Haskell killed his four children, his sister in law, and her husband. That shows the mentality of certain men, who are not only violent but anti-social and inhuman. We can see that in the gun nuts who say "Your dead kids don't come before my right to own guns." Considering that those kind of maniacs will probably kill even their own children, we can see how dangerous those kinds of people can be.
