Another day in 'Murica…
But is the gun OK? Is it traumatized by this tragedy?
A convicted felon, in illegal possession again, who had already killed a son in an earlier incident when he pointed a gun ‘with a rusted barrel’ at him and it ‘discharged’ (accidently, no doubt)… Hmmmm…right.
If only the baby had been armed, she could have shot granpaw first. Right, NRA?
Another triumph for GUN CULTURE USA!!!
White folks! Wassup with them anyway?
“…There’s still a lot of unanswered questions…”
Like what kind of religious morality defends gun rights over six children’s right to life?
Congratulations to the NRA! They made sure that a convicted felon had his right to a gun!
Not Murica, Florida. Guns rule. Long live the NRA. NOT.
I posted this in the other thread on this topic, but it bears repeating:
The BBC adds to its commentary:
Multiple shootings in the US have happened in schools, colleges, military institutions, shopping malls and homes. Each time innocent victims die, but this rural community has been shaken by the multiple killing, says the BBC’s Tom Esslemont in Washington.
It is likely to reopen a painful debate about gun ownership, but is unlikely to change deeply entrenched polarised views, our correspondent adds.
Their correspondent in Washington left out Sikh Temples, movie theaters, and fast-food restaurants.
good thing guns dont kill people…because only people kill people…right? But this is Florida where killing people is Aok.
Contrary to reports that all the kids had their hands up, I heard that the 4 yo was lunging at the shooter in an aggressive manner.
Really? I heard the 4 mo. old was running away, had his back to him!!
This is nothing but sad. No political argument should ensue here; this is tragic in the age of the victims and their number.
It’s often said in these parts when someone dies stupidly that they have won the “Darwin Award”. A friend of mine is an evolutionary biologist, and he says that the proof of successful passing on of one’s genes is not having children, but rather having grandchildren, as that means your offspring were viable. This guy, sadly, deserves a special kind of award for personally recalling his own evolutionary success. Poor children with a sick, sick grandfather.
This is exactly the kind of sick shit that is likely to trigger a genetically latent psychotic predisposition in the survivors of this horrible tragedy.
Here’s a question that will never be answered. Why on earth would you murder a four month old infant?
I’ve seen shit-eating-crazy, and this certainly sounds like it. God rest their souls.
Ever hear of the Darwin Awards? This guy qualifies.
Cue Charlie Crist ‘Willie Thornton’ style ad against Skeletor Scott.
I won’t be holding my breath.
Yup another gun day in florida.
