There’s been a shooting in Uvalde near Robb Elementary School.
Woman fatally shoots her father
“…the victim got into an argument with his daughter, Alicia R. Carroll, 28, and she picked up an assault-style rifle and handgun that were in the family’s house…”
Armed man in a clown wig arrested at a Dairy Queen in Pennsylvania demanding the restoration of Individual 1 as President King.
Wow. Been to that DQ.
Emphasis on “Q”
Speaking of Q…
Qanon loon snaps, shoots wife, daughter and family dog.
Rebecca described how her father would make the family watch videos about various conspiracy theories involving 5G cell towers, vaccines and lizard people. She said it ultimately became “pointless” to argue with him.
…
She added that her father had not previously been violent, but he had grown increasingly aggressive since the 2020 election and had several outbursts.
Igor reportedly exited his home and opened fire with a shotgun when police arrived. Officers returned fire, killing him.
Not sure if this belongs in this thread, but…
During the penalty phase of the trial of Nikolas Cruz, the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooter, the defense abruptly rested its case, without warning.
The judge was not pleased:
“We’re not playing chess,” she said. “This is the most uncalled for, unprofessional way to try a case.
“You all knew about this. Even if you didn’t make your decision until this morning,” Scherer said. “To have 22 people plus all of the staff and every attorney march into court and be waiting as if it’s some kind of game … I have never experienced a level of unprofessionalism in my career. It’s unbelievable.”
Lead defense lawyer Melisa McNeill attempted to explain the decision, but the judge told her to wait.
“Well judge, you’re insulting me on the record in front of my client,” the attorney said.
“You’ve been insulting me the entire trial,” Scherer responded.
Twas a kerfuffle, in which one man shot the other man, then allowed the other man to obtain the gun and shoot him back.
Ain’t sharing wonderful?
Wait, which one was the Good Guy With A Gun? < confused >
If one would’ve died, it would be easy to tell. Not so in this situation.
In that case, it’s TWO instances of positive gun news, right?
Of course! One good guy with a gun prevailed over a bad guy with a gun. Win-win!
Not sure if this is the best place to put it, since it doesn’t involve actual guns, but it involves the threat of guns, so…
Rash of people calling in active shooter reports to schools around the country, getting schools locked down, cancelling classes, and traumatizing students.
Yeah, I’ve noticed it in Virginia, too.
I think there was even one in my hometown of Suffolk. And a bomb threat somewhere in Hampton Roads. And I’m certain there was an honest-to-goodness weapon of some kind brought to school by an elementary school student.
That’s the problem isn’t it. Being law abiding responsible owner until suddenly you are violently not.
Law abiding responsible gun owner is not a category, it is often just a temporary state.
A Houston couple ordered 100 gun cases from a military surplus website. When they arrived, they found they contained a dozen fully automatic military grade M16s.
It boggles the mind what could have happened if the recipients had not been honest law-abiding citizens.

It makes me wonder if it was an illicit sale that went to the wrong address.
But the only people who own M16s ARE honest law-abiding citizens, right?
