Mom hit teen daughter before shooting

[Danno 1,228]

I for one, can't tolerate a "mouthy" kid either.

IN this case it might have been mom, on doubly doses of prozac, which put a match to the fuse.

There's a first time for everything. I must say, your disguise has been excellent (but clearly not good enough).

I'm internationally known for my creme of someyunguy.

What legislation could you possibly imagine would stop a mother who is able to kill her own children? Ludicrous.

The last time I recall something like this was a so called "mother" in South Carolina who latched her kids in the back seat of the car and drove it into a lake. Maybe we should ban lakes or do psychiatric tests for people that want to drive cars. But usually they just toss the baby in a dumpster. Ban dumpsters!

Nonsense. Pure nonsense.

That was a strange case in a number of ways, one of which was that they dragged the pond and found nothing.

After Mom confesses, they pulled the kids and the car they were strapped in from the bottom of the boat ramp.

How do you drag a pond for bodies and miss the car at the boat ramp?

Anyone who could shoot their own kids in the head is scary crazy. The look you see is coached by her attorney.

"Schenecker had initially planned what she called the "massacre" -- killing the children and then herself, McElroy said on Monday -- for January 22, but she put it off after learning there would be a three-day check before she could buy a gun."

If only they could've had a five-day check.

It is lost on you that it didn't matter how long the check is, isn't it?

It is lost on you that this woman wanted a gun to kill her family.

It is lost on you that she didn't go looking for some of that outlawed rope, pillows or cars you keep talking about.

I do think there are some gun owners who deliberately obfuscate the issues as regards the emotional distance one can have when dispatching someone with a gun as apposed to other methods that require actual physical contact with the victim and how that contact significantly changes the dynamics of killing and the ability of the killer to dispatch more than one victim. I find that incredibly disengenuous and wonder if these people really can't connect the dots. If they can't, then surely they are not responsible enough to own the guns they cherish?

Are you saying that killing more than one person at a time is worse than killing just one? And killing them in a more "disconnected" way somehow makes it better?

No. It is not.
