The unanswered but important question is this man's mental state. What he did was clearly a felony. But why, according to him, did he do it?
This is not the first time this has happened. TA Japanese student was killed by someone in Louisiana about thirty years ago, in similar circumstances: [

Guns are not going to disappear from America. Don't kid yourself about thi, especially given the realities of the racial situation. (Blacks murder whites far more, in proportion to their numbers, than vice versa, and, of course, the mainstream media cover it up. But most Black murders are of other Blacks -- which is true for all racial groups.: most violence is within the group.)
Is there anything that could be done about this, given that we are not going to confiscate all guns? Requiring attendance at a class teaching gun safety, for all purchasers of firearms, including what 'stand your ground' and 'citizens arrests' really mean, might help. This is already required in some states for those wishing to exercise 'concealed carry'.
But since there are already more firearms than people in the US, this would only catch new buyers, a fraction of gun owners. A better idea might be a widespread public information campaign, carried by all TV channels, on firearms safety and their legal use in self-defense.
Many people on the Right, and some on the Left, are -- justifiably -- wary about anything that extends government surveillance and knowledge of who owns what. But a public campaign, with widespread publicity -- including showing relevant videos in schools -- would not meet with those objections.
Another idea is: as part of the building code in every state, require doors opening to the outside to have a 'peephole' so that you don't have to open your door to see who's outside. Subsidize the retro-fitting of these. Consider the same requirement for security cameras.
As America disintegrates, and sensible people arm themselves against the accompanying chaos, we're going to see more and more incidents like this. Patriots need to organize, and to learn what is legal, and sensible, in terms of self-defense. If we were organized, and educated about the law, we could probably prevent a lot of needless tragedies.
