I saw this on Facebook. The man not only killed a kid, but he also shot at his own wife. He's clearly a nutcase, and these motherfuckers are idolizing him.

Exactly. I cried when I heard about this, and had to read the story myself to gain a sense (if that's at all possible) of what kind of people would ask for this nut's autograph. I try hard not to label people, but this man is nothing short of a psychopath, and I'm worried he will kill again. He shouldn't be anywhere near guns, ever again, after all that he's done. He's dangerous, and not stable, and why anyone would want his autograph, speaks volumes to me, how low America is sinking, in terms of values.

Sorry for my rant. Sad

He gunned down an ornery black thug and got off scot free. He lived the conservative dream.

This made me sick when I read it.

If he'd shot a white kid he'd be on death row right now.

But, to the fucking idiots, he's a hero.

Ehh, I don't think it's shocking that people are asking for his autograph. You are aware that many serial killers (Ted Bundy and Richard Ramirez being just two examples) had dozens of female fans who fawned over them at the trials where their gruesome rape/torture/murders were being explained in detail?

I'm more surprised that a gun show thought that it was worth the bad publicity (and potential for incidents... at a GUN SHOW) to have him as a featured guest.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
