The thing that annoys me about these reports is we never get a follow-up. Last incomplete reporting is from Thursday, and that’s likely the last we’ll get.

Its crazy what people can do in a moment of rage. I grew up in a small prairie town that had nearly zero violence and then one day a guy decided to cut down some very old oak trees that were a windbreak for a rural property. The tree owner argued with him but he insisted he had permission to remove them. The owner, a normally very gentle guy, went in the house got his gun and shot the tree cutter to death. He did years in the penitentiary for it. Good church going man who destroyed his own life and caused his family a great deal of grief over 5 minutes of uncontrolled rage.

Sounds oddly similar to a US dispute about 5 years ago. Neighbours feuding over parking and grass mowing or something, and the single guy goes inside grabs an AR type rifle and comes out and shoots the husband and wife in the street, then goes inside and shoots himself.

It was snow shoveling, although specifically it was people who got shot antagonizing the shooter.

The video shows that the Goys shoveled snow from their parking spots, pushed it across the street and threw it onto Spaide’s property. After Spaide asked the couple to stop throwing snow onto his property, the neighbors got into an argument where they appear to have exchanged obscene gestures and expletives.

Yeah I must have been think about the back story disputes they were having. The video was horrible to watch. It stuck with me for a while: watching two people be shot then stalked and shot more as the husband tried to run off. Crazy.

And it was all caught on camera (at least I think it's the same event).

[–] BCsven@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 week ago

Yes, the other comment mentions the last straw was shoveling snow. The video was hard to watch.

What I find crazy about all of this is getting so violent about what is likely petty neighbour disputes. Like I understand it is annoying, but a murder suicide over this stuff, like you gotta be objective here.
