The irony here is that the father had taken his son to the gun range to ālearn to shoot so he could protect himself.ā So much for that.
This is what he father actually said after the incident:
"Thatās what Iāve spent the last two days doing, accounting for my operating error.ā
āThe gun didnāt kill my boy - I didā
Holy J. H. Christ Dancing the Lambada On a Wheat Thin! What a fucking asshole! If I had killed my son, I would be so overwhelmed I wouldnāt be able to speak to anyone, and this motherfucker is talking about his āoperating errorā. He loves his damned guns more than he loves his own dead child.
You killed your child, asshole! And since you just admitted it to he world, I hope they bury you.
The father says he shouldnāt have to give up his guns. Iāve got news for you, fuckhead: like the Bundy Bros, you arenāt getting any access to firearms in the federal prison you are going to, since you already admitted to reckless homicide.
Armored plates concealed by wood, intended to prevent ricochets like the one that killed Brumby, divide the nine indoor lanes.
Uhhhhhhh, Brumby was not ākilled by a ricochet.ā He was shot dead on.
A non-harmful [edit: painful, but non-lethal] casing had ricocheted into his fatherās shirt. His father reached back to brush it out with the hand that had a gun in it and shot him [edit: (ā¦newly released detailsā¦) fired it and the bullet ricocheted off the ceiling].
āThe gun didnāt kill my boy - I didā
Thatās gonna look great carved into granite headstone.
No charges have been filed. This is FL and I expect absolutely nothing more will come out of it. I doubt Feds will get involved.
he still intends to keep them at home to defend his family.
That worked out so well.
Just doing his part to make sure the stat that its more dangerous to live in a family with guns than without stays true.
in FL itās judged as a āstand your groundā issueā¦
There is only one possible conclusion we can draw from this terrible tragedy:
āWe need more gunsā.
In 100 years people will wax nostalgic about the good old days. Days when a father and son could get out their guns; fondle them, clean them, shoot them. And during the course of bonding, in their quality time together, maim, wound, cripple or kill other family members, pets, neighbors or each other. Wally and Beaver never got to experience that.
If Trump is asked about this Iām sure heāll have something pithy in reply.
Just watch. This asshole will skate, if, in fact, if he is even charged with this crime. These days, the gun maniacs walk, even after killing family / friends with accidental shootings. Law enforcement gives a pass to armed, inept citizens no matter who they shoot. I mean, heās basically a good doode, right, and didnāt mean to shoot dead his son anyhow. He needs to go to prison - you know, deter others? I doubt it. Have Gun, Will Shoot - something, anything, whatever, gets my rocks off no matter who or what. He may not even have a conscience and this will disappear from his putrid mindās radar screen by tomorrow. I mean, you can always have more children, right? Letās keep this in perspective.
NRA Shooter of the Week. Used to be NRA Shooter of the Month. The way things are going, weāre going to need NRA Shooter of the Day awards.
NRAās National Shooter-of-the-minute Award is coming soon to your neighborhood. Stay tuned.
Heās not going to be charged with anything. Thatās a given.
Make up a little story about how it was an accident and you can murder anyone.
Sounds like you havenāt been hit with hot brass. Itās roughly akin to touching a hot stove-- he wouldnāt have been casually fishing it out of his pocket, but instinctively trying to rip this thing out that was burning him.
No, noā¦you forget, once an NRA member does something unhinged, or illegal, or unwise, then all of a sudden āHe Wasnāt One Of Usā.
An NRA member automagically reverts to a member of the mundane public when he or she does something un-NRAlike with a firearm.
