Trump: Texas Shooting 'Isn't a Guns Situation,' But Mental Health Issue

At a joint news conference with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in Japan today, President Trump said the Texas church mass shooting "isn't a guns situation" but a question of mental health.

Devin Kelley, 26, opened fire Sunday morning on the congregation at a church in Sutherland Springs, Texas, killing 26 before being stopped by an armed neighbor. Authorities said he had multiple firearms and was wearing tactical gear.

Kelley was court-martialed in 2012 on charges of assaulting his wife and child. That marriage ended in divorce. He received a bad conduct discharge from the Air Force in 2014, the same year that he remarried.

Two of Kelley's ex-girlfriends told NBC News that he became violent or stalked them after they broke off the relationship.

When someone can't stand being around some people, there are 3 ways to handle it:
1. Move/Leave
2. Commit Suicide
3. Kill all the people you don't like

Personally, #3 is my last choice for sick minds since the sick person usually ends up dead anyway.
