"It's not God-fearing Christians going out there and committing mass murder, so we really need to find out is it a certain mental illness and we've got to fix it so these things don't happen again," Palazzo said. "But, we're not going to sacrifice the 2nd Amendment to the Constitution just to appease special interest," he said.

(52,791 posts)Pretty much by definition.. If someone who fancies him/herself a Christian DOESN'T "fear God" then they don't fear any retribution for their actions.
That said.. It is a poor excuse for a human being who's ONLY mitigating influence is fear of retribution.
Those who believe they're "doing God's Work" by killing His handiwork are ill indeed.
And God's being in or out of the picture altogether is entirely beside the point.
