Discussion: Police: Man Fires Rifle At Neighbor Hanging Christmas Lights

Get those guns into the hands of the mentally ill just as soon as you can! I wonder how conflicted some gun nuts will be about this one, if they are also “Christians”?

I put the threshold at one.

I’ve always heard that PA is Pittsburg with Louisiana on one side and Alabama on the other.

Who could anticipate that a country that hands out guns to all comers would have such problems?

What? The neighbor was putting up decorations UNARMED? What the hell did he think was gonna happen?

Next time, be prepared.

Heavily armed thug attacks man in his own yard!!!

And some of you still question the need for police to be so quick with the lethal force when confronting African American males caught committing terrible crimes like driving without a seat belt and walking in the street?

The only thing that stops a bad guy with Christmas decorations is a gun.

What, you expect that basic tenet to change just because the bad guy’s ‘weapon’ changes?

Let’s see, I’m gonna guess he’s white which is why he’s still alive. Also that there was alcohol involved.

Thinning the herd!

“Police said they found spent shell casings, thousands of rounds of ammunition and at least two dozen rifles in Carter’s home after a SWAT team finally persuaded him to surrender.”

What, no flashbangs thrown by the SWAT team then going in with guns blazing???

If this were a drug raid in a black neighborhood, the family would be writing the obituary right now.

What a waste of taxpayer-supporters public policing resources. It’s past time that the white community started taking some actual responsibility for exactly this sort of armed human organism on contiguous human organism violence.

Richard Carter must have thought his neighbor was hanging those darn “Happy Holidays” lights and he had to put a stop to that!

The literal War on Christmas…where is Faux News?

Might have been justified…

Have you seen some of the Gawd-awful garishness?

The way I’ve heard it PA is Philly at one end, Pittsburg at the other, with Alabama everywhere else.

How does a guy with mental health issues get his hands on several rifles and a few thousand rounds of ammo? I thought such people were supposed to be put on lists of people not permitted to own firearms, or am I making too much sense?
