Yet another shooting..........this time someone opened fire outside the Empire State building - reporting at least 5-10 shot. Not really much info yet.
More fuel for the fire for this thread. It will never end.![]()

I see nothing inappropriate about it. In fact, it is what I am thinking.
And especially as we have had a page or so of people joking about a death by coffee mug!
I just didn't find an implication to the OK City bombing, as a laughing matter. Must just be my stuffy old age speaking. The coffee mug references were just plain silly and it did lighten the "discussion" a bit too. Of course - JMHO.
ETA: My apology - and I stand corrected. A pick up truck was NOT used in the OK City bombing. So I guess the pick up truck reference was acceptable and funny afterall.![]()

It was a Ryder box truck. I was working for Ryder at the time and was in the Kansas City office when the FBI came to look at the rental records. One of the reasons they were able to so quickly aprehend the bad guys was that Ryder has an identifying number put on many of the pieces of the truck - axles, engine block, etc. So when the truck blew up it was still possible to identify the truck and from there to who rented it.
My husband also worked for Ryder at the time. Shortly afterward he was on a plane wearing a shirt with the company logo on it. Another passenger lit into him...how could he wear that shirt! Yelling at him. Apparently being the employee of a company from which a terrorist rents a truck is shameful....![]()
Every time I hear some jamoke say, after the latest shooting..."if only someone in the school/classroom/hair salon/movie theater, etc. etc. had a gun!" Here we see trained professionals who create collateral damage. When will people understand it is not like the movies...a clean shot to the head of the bad man?????.No one else is hurt and everyone is back in the next episode without so much as a limp!!!

If the woman isn't charged, I can picture where this going.![]()

"I don't know which weapons will be used in the third World war, but in the fourth, it will be sticks and stones" --- Albert Einstein.
But she didn't. She didn't keep a baseball bat beside the bed. She kept a gun. And killed him.
He might have survived a baseball bat.
What could have been has nothing to do with what is. She shot him...with a gun...and he is dead.
I do not blame it on the gun. it is the fault of the person who had the gun. I hope she will be held accountable.
Either way -though - blame her or the gun - her husband is no less dead.
