"And you're right, there was not mention in the story, which begged the question."
I read this story and didn't think "There was no mention that the parents were drug dealers, i wonder if they were?", that's very twisted and gives an insight in how your mind instantly looks for something to blame this on so you can justify it happening to someone who isn't a well liked member of society.
The website implied certain politicians were horrible? You implied the parents were probably drug dealers.
"And I don't view drug dealers in the same light as gays or immigrants - that's your personal hang up." = I know you are, you said you are, but what am i? Which is your usual tact. In that case i'm going to play you at your own tedious game and suggest YOU view gays and immigrants as being worse than drug dealers.

But why mention gays or immigrants at all when I didn't mention it, unless "that's very twisted and gives an insight in how your mind instantly looks for something to blame this on ..."
The article seemed more of an abstract than an article, so those questions came up. I did wonder, were the children not trained? were the firearms easily accessible? With those questions, my brain hearkened back to previous news reports of instances in which children were shot. I then gave some "surmises".
Sometimes one has to get beyond the political slant of "news" and look at the facts. Where there are no facts, one naturally questions.

You don't question, you jump to the first conclusion that legitimises your beliefs and reinforces them to yourself.
