"How does an argument over a television program end up with a murder, an attempted murder and a suicide?" he said.
BECAUSE HE HAD A GUN ASSHOLE.
No one that fucked up should be allowed to own firearms.
How about we just stop doing sports? I remember the transgender sports thing, before that there was drug use in sports, to the point where smoking weed (not an athletic performance inhancer by any measure) could get athletes banned. How about we just ban sports. That seems to be what these conversations are leading towards anyway. It's not just guns, because sometimes men who get emotional about sports will beat their families to death or something.
Or, maybe instead of banning sports, we still do sports, but everybody has to be naked like in ancient times, or maybe not naked but wearing a giant sign that says "I'm a douchebag" and when someone signs up for a sportsbetting site a paid intern just comes to their house and kicks them in the nuts
Those poor kids. The presents under the tree were the last gifts from their mom they'd ever receive. Thank goodness the mom had the awareness to send her son out of the house, and that the baby was unharmed. No matter where they go from here, the older kids, at least, will never be able to look at Christmas the same way again.
I expect to see more of this.
Conservative women's brains are fucked because they needed a sense of belonging and all they had to choose from were scumbags.
I'm not blaming the women. It's just the reality when a substantial amount of them get sucked up in the MAGA bullshit.
Family annihilators do not always make the national news but it happens a sickening amount. Typically a male spouse.
If ONLY she had Killed him FIRST this WOULDNT have happened And that's LITERALLY the Only Way to have Prevented that!
Only thing that can stop a bad dad with a gun is a good daughter with a gun. Checkmate, Obama.
That's Polk County FL in a very sad nutshell.
It wasn’t a “shooting” it was a NRA sponsored _Freedom Celebration_™
Sociology class I took ages ago mentioned a very strong correlation of domestic violence with football team performance. Basically in the state that the winning team belongs to, their violence rates dip, and the team that lost gets a surge of husbands assaulting/murdering their wives.
Humans are really shitty animals.
One study published in the Quarterly Journal of Economics found that domestic violence rates increase by about 10% on days when NFL games are played, particularly when there are unexpected outcomes or high-stakes matchups.
Wow, Thats beyond margin of error. Wtf ppl?
A lot of people are getting drunk while watching.
Don't blame humans for what football fans do.
"He absolutely destroyed a family," Judd said. "Our homicide detectives are distraught. When you go in there, there is a beautiful Christmas tree with lots of Christmas presents under the tree, just like the nuclear family should be ... and it ends up this way."
Yeah, so maybe, just maybe the drug using alcoholic with anger management issues should not have had a gun. But no, we can't restrict gun ownership, can we. Some old guys a about 250 years ago said we shouldn't do that. So, sorry folks. All you can do is get your own gun and hope you're fast enough to shoot any crazy fucks who come at you before they can shoot you. It's the American way.
Are you suggesting the ambiguously worded will of the slave owners and their enablers from 250 years ago should be adapted to modern reality? What kind of filthy commie talk is that?
It's not ambiguously worded.
This man was clearly part of a well-regulated militia.
Mental health in the USA is good.
Definitely a normal country full of well-adjusted people. We can see evidence of that on a daily basis.
is this the "well regulated militia" that everyones talkin about?
No, no, that argument fell apart the moment the "well" "regulated" 2A "militia" stepped aside and let fascism in. Now they're just tacticool cosplayers.
And now we got the paramilitary gravy seals showing up in jungle camo to kidnap tu abuelo in the fucking Walmart parking lot.
America has a mental health crisis
America has a gun crisis
If America didn't have guns it would still have massacres. Something like driving into crowds or taking sharp objects into public spaces.
Removing guns is like taking shoe laces in the psyche ward - it isn't solving a problem but making other opportunities more apparent.
