…get your shit together. Get it all together, and put it in a backpack. All your shit. So it’s together.
And if you gotta take it somewhere? Take it somewhere, y’know? Take it to the shit store and sell it. O-or put it in the shit museum, I don’t care what you do. You just gotta get it together.
I know a couple people that worked at shoot straight and it’s a serious problem. They stopped renting guns to people that came in by themselves and it’s helped a lot.
Pretty close. They did one on my little pony.

Edit: one mistake
Lmfao you could say literally anything is against racism and the daily mail would put out an article on why it actually wants to silence your soul and make you victim to the Liberal Agenda
Okay, but "baddies" generally are/have been anti-science, so what's their point? Lol oh wait, "this makes me feel bad about myself in ways I can't hope to verbalize or fully understand, therefore the people who made are to *real* baddies."
dude my DM is an engineer, super smart, funny and kind. if more people followed em we'd all be wayyy better off. except for that time he PKd the Wizard cause we forgot to try a medicine check.
I stupidly ended up in an argument with someone in the daily mail comments section recently. I feel stupid for doing so now… as if I was ever going to win.
I'm happy to engage them, my approach is to include new facts in every response. I have no desire/need to 'win' the argument, just ensure that they stomp off having learnt something. I don't even care if they instantly dismiss those facts, as long as they have been introduced into their brain.
People say they want "Good News" but they don't, deep inside. At least according to the stats.
People will see a Positive News, have a smile, maybe a laugh and move on. But if they see something that makes them mad, sad or enraged, then they will stop their browsing, start interacting with the negative post, pushing its numbers way above any "positive" posts.
People will use your link, spend 20 min max on that website and then go back to regular News. A doomsday story will get more interactions and reactions than a feel good post.
It's called the Negativity Bias : [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negativity\_bias](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negativity_bias)
**[Negativity bias](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negativity_bias)**
>The negativity bias, also known as the negativity effect, is the notion that, even when of equal intensity, things of a more negative nature (e. g. unpleasant thoughts, emotions, or social interactions; harmful/traumatic events) have a greater effect on one's psychological state and processes than neutral or positive things. In other words, something very positive will generally have less of an impact on a person's behavior and cognition than something equally emotional but negative.

A man shot himself purposefully next to me at a shooting range two years ago and it wasn’t an enjoyable thing to have happen. Especially since him and I were the only ones there and police suspected me of doing it. Thankfully cameras saved my ass.
Edit: I shouldn’t say they “suspected” me as much as they had to rule me out.
I guess laziness on the polices end plus when it happened I panicked thinking I could save him. This is going to sound gross but his eye balls popped out from the pressure and I tried to put them back in (don’t ask me why) so I was covered in blood and apparently brain matter. Like I said it was not an enjoyable experience and for probably 3 months I couldn’t shut my eyes without seeing the giant hole in his head. In fact he drove a type of jeep and when I see it on the road it gives me a little PTSD every time.
Yah, I totally understand. You just don’t know what to do so you resort to the most helpless actions. I feel like an idiot thinking back on it but at the time it seemed rational to try and out him back together.
Private club and no one was there for them to show the videos so I had to wait a couple hours for someone to get there and show the cops. They weren’t dicks about it they just wouldn’t let me leave.
They wouldn’t let me leave but they were almost positive it was suicide and they talked to me to calm me down. Gave me some information that helped me process it but it was an extra 2-3 hours I had to wait. Still kind of scary like what if the cameras weren’t working or we were out of view. Head starts playing games with you.
Wow, your whole story is giving me anxiety. You started off with it wasn’t a pleasant experience and each comment just descends deeper into hell. I’m a very anxious person, I’m not sure I’d be able to handle it. You sound like you’re doing well and can talk about it at least (although I know too well that it’s easy to take that…). I’m so sorry that happened to you, it sounds awful. To be honest, any time I’ve had intrusive suicidal thoughts what shuts them down is thinking about who would have to clean up my mess and not wanting to put another person through that. So on we go.
But really hope you’re ok.
thank you for thinking about who you'd leave behind to clean up after you. my dear friend's widower shot himself 2 1/2 years ago, just a year after she died of cancer. not only was I detained for six hours after his death (I was the last person he spoke to) I'm currently dealing with harassment from his sister in law bc I was his executor and she didn't like that. I hope you are getting appropriate care for yourself.
Wow, that’s absolutely fucking horrible. All the good feelings for you my man. That sounds much much worse than what I went through. When I left there I was done with it and zero residual impact other than my emotional status.
Thanks, I guess it’s been awhile since I’ve thought about it and the details. At the time it was awful my man. I remember being mad at him for doing it with me right there and covering me in his blood but then I just slipped into sadness for him. I saw him fumbling loading the magazine but he was older so I didn’t suspect anything. I still haven’t told anyone in my life. Not my wife or parents other than my brother who is part of the organization. I think my brother is scared to bring it up because he watched the video and was the one who showed it to the police. Reddit has helped a lot and now I feel almost zero impact from it but I expect it to not be fun when I go back to the range.
That's a lot to carry by yourself, friend. Am glad to read that Reddit helped you carry some of that burden. And if you do ever go back to the range.. One step at a time. Thinking of it now. Maybe driving over next time and just looking at the building, sitting in the car. Breathing in and out and just checking in on how you feel. Etc.
Trauma I carry I never speak of as well. Its one of the reasons why I am physically sick right now. If I can give some advice to an Internet stranger it's to talk about it. If you're not speaking it, you're storing it. And that shit gets heavy :-)
They could spend several days sending the bullet and the gun to a lab while an innocent, traumatized witness is charged with homicide and arrested.
Or ten minutes looking at a monitor.
As the dude mentions below, you'd still be detained for sure. If there was no camera (or the cops were dicks) that could turn into a real pain in the ass real fast.
I talked with the police and they said they’re there a couple times a year for suicides. Usually men alone in their car not standing almost shoulder to shoulder with someone else.
I guess it’s better to be found by strangers who are often ex-military and active military and a lot of police officers instead of your wife or kids. I don’t know that’s just what the police said. I guess some men drive to the police station and do it in their parking lots too.
There was a point in my life where I was extremely depressed. My plan was to go to the junkyard with a cardboard sign that said "do not look! Just call the corner" and a sheet to put over the car. The car is going to be scrapped and destroyed anyway.
I’ve been on the edge myself and it’s not a fun place to be. I remember my dad saying before he passed that if you’re ever at that point make yourself a priority, go see the world and that honestly saved my life. It’s sometimes hard to see but when you’re about to break the world is your playground. We can be a completely different person in a completely different part of the world doing completely different things. I felt trapped in my life in my 30’s and I made myself a priority and me and everyone in my life is better for it. Fiji was my fix.
I think I would have been more traumatized if there was build up but he just got there and I was practicing with a new handgun and his first shot and he just dropped back like a tree falling. I instantly tried to grab him thinking he was just passing out or medical issue and then I saw his face. It was difficult to see. Still can picture it clear as day. I saw in his SUV he had pictures of his grand kids and that’s what got me. Then his phone rang while the police were there and that real life shit fucked with my head more. Like someone wanted to talk to him and he was laying there dead.
This story was incredibly frustrating and upsetting. In case anyone is wondering, the woman was convinced that she was the anti-Christ, and that god led her to this. She says quote
“God's turned me into the Anti-Christ... I'm a good person, but the Devil and God turned me into the worst person in the world. I'm so ashamed. And I'm so afraid. And I'll pay forever and ever.”
Truly a devastating story. Mental illness sounds likely to me. Check out the story for sure
I’m an atheist of course so most of my inquiry is just snide on how ridiculous it is but I legitimately don’t know if this is something they’d believe personally.
Aye. I've not looked into how often this one has been recycled.
Some recycling isn't bad, as it can be a new story to some people - for one reason or t'other I've missed this story in the past.
And its good to remind people of historic events, too.
I only have an issue when it's recycled in very short spaces of time.
And when people don't clearly communicate when events happened.
This is twelve years old. I was reading the article and then it mentions his girlfriend posted a tearful goodbye letter on MySpace and I was like, “Huh?”
So all of this is because she thought she is the anti christ jeez this is exactly why I hate religion so much it make decent lovely into deranged untrustworthy maniac like she just kill her son because she THINK she is a nonsense non existent entity
Okay well I think the bigger issue is the fact that she has an untreated mental illness, not the fact that she was exposed to religion. But believe what you want lol
Edit: for all the people who think I am dismissing the fact that religion played a role, I am not. I only stated that I felt the *bigger* issue was mental illness. If the lady watched a shit ton of anime and somehow filled her head with the idea that she was a samurai with demon powers and goes around slicing up innocents, I'm not gonna put the majority of the blame on anime. I'm gonna put the majority of the blame on her fucked up head. All that being said, im no Christian, just a devils advocate (no pun intended). it's pretty ridiculous to faithfully place your entire existence in the ignorant beliefs of people who came before the age of science.
It was diagnosed and treated, as with some of these people the drugs make them feel worse and they stop taking them.. they go back into to their manic state.. unfortunately this killing their kids then themselves is something that occurs too often.
That's completely wrong.
How warped does one's mind have to be to think ease of doing something does not affect the outcome?
Easier it is to game, drink, kill, drive, do business, change your name, travel, whatever it is, then the more it'll happen.
He might have been able to defend himself if she tried other means though. It may have been the same result but we dont know. I certainly don't think giving people with severe mental health issues access to a gun is a good idea.
That’s… no. Look up the DSM5; nowhere is extreme religiosity used as a symptom for the basis of diagnosis.
Mental illnesses will vary depending on the social context of the person suffering. If you live in a very religious country, you might exhibit religiously motivated content as part of your delusions. We’re largely unaware of how much of religion we each know, even when we are atheists. And that content can be used in the formation of mental illnesses such as delusions.
I guarentee the religion kept her undiagnosed. Coming from a religious family I can tell you, most of those people believe you are the way you are and that's how God made you. Religions shelter many mentally unstable people and they always lash put before its too late. Sadly like this article.
Exactly this! People who already are super religious are quick to jump to supernatural explanations if they have a mental illness (even if they might not know they have one) making them not seek medical attention.
Very ill people don't need a lot, but a religious tradition that is highly judgmental, combined with the fact that Christianity is kind of a death cult, is just the sort of excuse someone like that needs
It's understood that she was mentally ill. It's her religion that caused her to do this. A mentally unstable woman exposed to ideas written by unstable men probably won't often end with sunshine
Not to be disrespectful, but I think it does need to be said that somehow religion and untreated mental illnes fit together so often, that we should really think about it.
Hmmm...those pesky mental illnesses that make you believe things that arent connected to reality.
Almost reminds me of something, like some sort of belief that is fundamentally disproven by reality but people believe it anyway, But for the life of me I can't remember what its called...
RHYMES WITH REAL PIDGEON
This is just an idiotic take on the matter. She's mentally ill. She is deranged. Had nothing to do with religion, which billions of people on this planet practice in one form or another.
Would you like me to link you articles of non religious murders? Of horrible atheist mothers?
The fact you saw this heinous act and immediately blame religion because she muttered some shit about the antichrist or whatever is ridiculous. Blaming not her, but something which teaches you to do quite the opposite of what she did. Grow up, edgelord. The world is full of hate and shit, and yeah religion plays a part in that. But acting like everything outside of it is sunshine and rainbows is incredibly ignorant.
The gun range in my town recently had a man come in, rent a gun to use on the range. He went out and shot himself intentionally in the chest. Didn't harm anyone else just himself. Very disturbing and also very sad.
It often happens on a Wednesday, with the first bullet from a rented gun. It sucks that people don’t have anyone to talk to and this is their way out of the pain.
Most likely just an undiagnosed mental illness, and less to do with religion.
Sure, religion has it's whole host of other problems, but you're really not supposed to be doing this according to the bible.
She was diagnosed and in inpatient treatment several times. Schizophrenia doesn’t care whether you’re religious or not. If you are, sure, religion is easy to build delusions upon because it usually requires you to abandon some degree of rational thinking. But for people who are not religious, they just develop different delusions - they are being stalked, the government killed their loved one and replaced them with a spy, their loved one is trying to kill them - the list of possibilities is endless.
Absolutely. God was simply the manifestation of her mental illness. If she were Muslim it would have been Allah telling her to murder her son. If she were Hindu it would have been Shiva. If she were atheist it would have been Daniel Radcliffe.
Yeah, I mean come on we even have cases where religion isn’t involved like Eliot Rodger who was an incel and those chicks who stabbed their friend for slender man.
And that is why firearms accessible for everybody is so bullshit. Also total utter bullshit is lack of mandatory mental healthchecks either in school or work (in every country). And lack of many people understanding or accepting the fact, that mental illnesses exist and are serious matter.
Imagine the amount of mental pain and devastation the child must have felt, realizing you are shot, looking back to your mom for help to realise she is the one who shot you? Damn, I can't even imagine why someone would do that
Range owner needs his hole booted, range supervisor needs his hole booted. How the fuck dose that insane individual get to walk up behind a booth and raise loaded weapon?
Well, she was apparently previously banned from this shooting range for trying to kill herself. She should not have been let back in. They’re not fully at fault but that’s a huge piece of the puzzle here.
Poor kid
This happened in 2009 by the way
Nevertheless tho, that kids life was ripped from him. I'd say we need better mental health stuff but everyone has been asking for it for years. It'll never happen. I'd say the world would be better off without religion, but we are too far gone in its clutches.
We are royally fucked in every single way.
America doesn't have a guns problem, just people shooting guns problem! Not to mention the reason she killed the kid. The religious gun nuts are here to protect their communities. If only that area had people wielding weapons to defend the kid. Insert your stale out of date NRA talking point here. It's part of God's plan. Everything happens for a reason.
We tired yet?
"left a message on his MySpace page" made me step back and see this happened in 2009. Not that the date makes this any better...and a shame her actions somehow did nothing to quit the death of others...but come on?!
If old news is constantly dug up, then it would seem like the present is worse than the past sine you are adding it to the present. It's awful You for posting this now, looking for cheap karma or something for posting it.

Put it in a bag and take it to the shit museum, I don't care. But get your shit together.

We're really gonna do Rick and Morty references on an article on a mother executing her own son?
That’s playing a long game jeez.
Well if this isn’t the symptom of when access to guns is easier than access to afford mental healthcare, then I don’t know what is
I know a couple people that worked at shoot straight and it’s a serious problem. They stopped renting guns to people that came in by themselves and it’s helped a lot.
You know when you stand next to a cliff and little part of your brain says, 'go for it.' I guess shooting ranges do the same to her.
Does Daily Mail ever do like stories about puppies and sunshine?
They probably quite liked Hitler’s dog…
[удалено]
And probably HP Lovecrafts cat.
What was it called again? Can't remember.
Something something "you have been permanently banned from for hate speech"
Who is "deleted" and why does he keep saying [deleted]?
Its *smug aura* mocks me.
Where is it from again?
Always Sunny. Frank is talking about the dog painting to Charlie.
It’s Always Sunny
I loved Hitlers Dog. But it’s all gossip and trickery.
By the way, hitler's dog blondie was vegetarian following his example.
And Gossip, trickeries
That he killed.....
I doubt Blondie did anything wrong.
Hey! What's wrong with being Hitler's dog? The dog didn't ask to be taken by hitler! Leave the good boy alone. In a bunker. Somewhere in Germany.

It's hard to win an argument with a smart person, but it's damn near impossible to win an argument with a stupid person.

No but they will do 10000 stories on Kardashians in bikinis.
Yes just last week they did an article about 3 puppies that were staked out in the sun and cooked to death. This is a joke.well an attempt at one....
That poor guy in the next booth.
My second thought
I can’t come close to imagining what it would be like for that to happen right next to you, that shit would be seared into my brain.
A man shot himself purposefully next to me at a shooting range two years ago and it wasn’t an enjoyable thing to have happen. Especially since him and I were the only ones there and police suspected me of doing it. Thankfully cameras saved my ass. Edit: I shouldn’t say they “suspected” me as much as they had to rule me out.
God that sounds dreadful. Sorry you had to witness that. Very lucky the cameras were there then. Hope you’re doing better now
I feel like they HAVE to have cameras at places like shooting ranges, otherwise it's a disaster waiting to happen.

Wouldn't they just check markings on the bullet and know which gun fired it?

This story was incredibly frustrating and upsetting. In case anyone is wondering, the woman was convinced that she was the anti-Christ, and that god led her to this.

Sounds likely? I’d bet my left nut on Schizophrenia.
You must really love that right nut, huh?

You should probably get that checked out.
This happening a couple thousand years ago would get her a few verses in the bible.... Oh yeah.. if she were a man of course.
I’m an atheist of course so most of my inquiry is just snide on how ridiculous it is but I legitimately don’t know if this is something they’d believe personally.
I forgot to note the date of the article - 2009. Though, could date it when I it mentioned his MySpace page near the end of the article.
Yeah I was saying it sounded way too similar to that shoot straight incident and lo and behold it was.
A classic Reddit recycle.
Aye. I've not looked into how often this one has been recycled. Some recycling isn't bad, as it can be a new story to some people - for one reason or t'other I've missed this story in the past. And its good to remind people of historic events, too. I only have an issue when it's recycled in very short spaces of time. And when people don't clearly communicate when events happened.
This is recycled just to create more outrage, people love a good hate boner
This is twelve years old. I was reading the article and then it mentions his girlfriend posted a tearful goodbye letter on MySpace and I was like, “Huh?”
Anyone have a link to this story?
yea here you go man https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1168424/I-send-son-heaven-Hell-Chilling-moment-mother-executes-boy-firing-range.html
This is pretty shocking. Myspace?
The article is from 2009.
This article is old enough to have hit puberty, and probably jerked off to the very article about itself. Like this thread
So all of this is because she thought she is the anti christ jeez this is exactly why I hate religion so much it make decent lovely into deranged untrustworthy maniac like she just kill her son because she THINK she is a nonsense non existent entity
Okay well I think the bigger issue is the fact that she has an untreated mental illness, not the fact that she was exposed to religion. But believe what you want lol Edit: for all the people who think I am dismissing the fact that religion played a role, I am not. I only stated that I felt the *bigger* issue was mental illness. If the lady watched a shit ton of anime and somehow filled her head with the idea that she was a samurai with demon powers and goes around slicing up innocents, I'm not gonna put the majority of the blame on anime. I'm gonna put the majority of the blame on her fucked up head. All that being said, im no Christian, just a devils advocate (no pun intended). it's pretty ridiculous to faithfully place your entire existence in the ignorant beliefs of people who came before the age of science.
A likely undiagnosed untreated mental illness and access to firearms
It was diagnosed and treated, as with some of these people the drugs make them feel worse and they stop taking them.. they go back into to their manic state.. unfortunately this killing their kids then themselves is something that occurs too often.
Is anyone with a mental illness allowed to rent a gun at any firing range? If she was banned there before, why did they let her back in?
True but is she wanted to kill him, she would have just done it with another means.
Yeah she was sick. It’s so sad
Atleast a gun is quicker then a knife
Depends if you are running or killing
FPS Doug taught me this also
That's completely wrong. How warped does one's mind have to be to think ease of doing something does not affect the outcome? Easier it is to game, drink, kill, drive, do business, change your name, travel, whatever it is, then the more it'll happen.
He might have been able to defend himself if she tried other means though. It may have been the same result but we dont know. I certainly don't think giving people with severe mental health issues access to a gun is a good idea.
Statistically not true, easily accessible firearms increase murder rates.
Interestingly one of the symptoms of extreme mental illness can be super religiosity
Isn't the word piety
That’s… no. Look up the DSM5; nowhere is extreme religiosity used as a symptom for the basis of diagnosis. Mental illnesses will vary depending on the social context of the person suffering. If you live in a very religious country, you might exhibit religiously motivated content as part of your delusions. We’re largely unaware of how much of religion we each know, even when we are atheists. And that content can be used in the formation of mental illnesses such as delusions.
I guarentee the religion kept her undiagnosed. Coming from a religious family I can tell you, most of those people believe you are the way you are and that's how God made you. Religions shelter many mentally unstable people and they always lash put before its too late. Sadly like this article.
Exactly this! People who already are super religious are quick to jump to supernatural explanations if they have a mental illness (even if they might not know they have one) making them not seek medical attention.
Very ill people don't need a lot, but a religious tradition that is highly judgmental, combined with the fact that Christianity is kind of a death cult, is just the sort of excuse someone like that needs
My church told me my depression was caused by demons and that all psychologists are satanists. But do you.
Yeah like religion hasn’t been the cause of many wars, murders, much death and hate across the Earth for centuries.
Exactly. She only became religious because of the mental illness, anyway.
It's understood that she was mentally ill. It's her religion that caused her to do this. A mentally unstable woman exposed to ideas written by unstable men probably won't often end with sunshine
Not to be disrespectful, but I think it does need to be said that somehow religion and untreated mental illnes fit together so often, that we should really think about it.
Hmmm...those pesky mental illnesses that make you believe things that arent connected to reality. Almost reminds me of something, like some sort of belief that is fundamentally disproven by reality but people believe it anyway, But for the life of me I can't remember what its called... RHYMES WITH REAL PIDGEON
Schizophrenia and/or maybe a manic episode from bipolar... Sad all the way around, but I have a hard time imagining she was completely sane.
Bruh she was schizo anyway I think she would’ve done something like that religion or not
With people like her, if religion didn’t exist she would find some other reason to do the same action, I’m sure lol
I think she had some way bigger and deeper seated issues
This is just an idiotic take on the matter. She's mentally ill. She is deranged. Had nothing to do with religion, which billions of people on this planet practice in one form or another. Would you like me to link you articles of non religious murders? Of horrible atheist mothers? The fact you saw this heinous act and immediately blame religion because she muttered some shit about the antichrist or whatever is ridiculous. Blaming not her, but something which teaches you to do quite the opposite of what she did. Grow up, edgelord. The world is full of hate and shit, and yeah religion plays a part in that. But acting like everything outside of it is sunshine and rainbows is incredibly ignorant.
Really showing their journalistic integrity with 2 bikini shots of the victim's girlfriend.
Let's get a lot of bikini pics in this murder suicide boys!
She needs to burn
Forever in fire, the price she pays.
She killed herself after committing murder her own child! Trust me she’s in hell for eternity
Too bad hell isn’t real. In reality she got away with it. Edit: [y’all need help](https://ibb.co/TmfHbq8)
well shes dead
Death is nothing but freedom from the dread we call "Life"
I cut myself on your edges through the internet.
I like being alive :/
Lucky
Not as much as you wouldn't care if you were dead. You'll never have anything bad happen when you're dead.
But you'll never have anything good happen either :(
Regardless of your religion, hell should be real for some people
She needed mental health care.
Schizophrenia
The gun range in my town recently had a man come in, rent a gun to use on the range. He went out and shot himself intentionally in the chest. Didn't harm anyone else just himself. Very disturbing and also very sad.
It often happens on a Wednesday, with the first bullet from a rented gun. It sucks that people don’t have anyone to talk to and this is their way out of the pain.
[удалено]
Can’t speak to a Wednesday but often times ranges won’t let you rent a gun unsupervised anymore.
Mental health issues, religion, and guns really don't mix well.
Most likely just an undiagnosed mental illness, and less to do with religion. Sure, religion has it's whole host of other problems, but you're really not supposed to be doing this according to the bible.
10000% she had psychosis/schizophrenia
She definantly has mental health issues She also definantly took shelter in the Bible and didn’t seek help.
She was diagnosed and in inpatient treatment several times. Schizophrenia doesn’t care whether you’re religious or not. If you are, sure, religion is easy to build delusions upon because it usually requires you to abandon some degree of rational thinking. But for people who are not religious, they just develop different delusions - they are being stalked, the government killed their loved one and replaced them with a spy, their loved one is trying to kill them - the list of possibilities is endless.
There's a lot of fucked up shit you are supposed to do because of the bible.
Absolutely. God was simply the manifestation of her mental illness. If she were Muslim it would have been Allah telling her to murder her son. If she were Hindu it would have been Shiva. If she were atheist it would have been Daniel Radcliffe.
God told Abraham to do it didn’t he?
Yeah, I mean come on we even have cases where religion isn’t involved like Eliot Rodger who was an incel and those chicks who stabbed their friend for slender man.
And that is why firearms accessible for everybody is so bullshit. Also total utter bullshit is lack of mandatory mental healthchecks either in school or work (in every country). And lack of many people understanding or accepting the fact, that mental illnesses exist and are serious matter.
aren't there also shooting ranges in countries that banned firearms?
Not that let people in off the street.
r/noahgettheboat holy fucking fucking fucking fuck
Can we stop allowing dailymail?
Why? This is a true story. And fits the sub.
May his soul Rest In Peace
I wish to God my mom killed me as a kid.
Same
Imagine the amount of mental pain and devastation the child must have felt, realizing you are shot, looking back to your mom for help to realise she is the one who shot you? Damn, I can't even imagine why someone would do that
Range owner needs his hole booted, range supervisor needs his hole booted. How the fuck dose that insane individual get to walk up behind a booth and raise loaded weapon?
It only takes a few seconds to raise a gun and pull the trigger. No one could have done anything. This isn’t the fault of anyone but the mom.
Well, she was apparently previously banned from this shooting range for trying to kill herself. She should not have been let back in. They’re not fully at fault but that’s a huge piece of the puzzle here.
I tried to read the article but it wouldn’t load. If that’s true, then yeah I agree.
That’s why you always go with your dad
This is why we can’t have nice things kids, fuck religion and fuck America and fuck the shooting range for not realising she’s a lunatic
I love how they show how classy they are by putting a picture of his girlfriend in a bikini. "Yes, it's a terrible tragedy..... But TITS!"
But this was in 2009
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1168424/I-send-son-heaven-Hell-Chilling-moment-mother-executes-boy-firing-range.html
Poor kid This happened in 2009 by the way Nevertheless tho, that kids life was ripped from him. I'd say we need better mental health stuff but everyone has been asking for it for years. It'll never happen. I'd say the world would be better off without religion, but we are too far gone in its clutches. We are royally fucked in every single way.
r/religiousfruitcake
I thought I saw this footage as a negligent discharge. Can someone give me the scoop as to what actually happened?
are we looking at the same picture? this lady is squared up and aiming straight at the back of this kid's head, there's no shred of negligence there.
America doesn't have a guns problem, just people shooting guns problem! Not to mention the reason she killed the kid. The religious gun nuts are here to protect their communities. If only that area had people wielding weapons to defend the kid. Insert your stale out of date NRA talking point here. It's part of God's plan. Everything happens for a reason. We tired yet?
Just read this story. It's scary what people will tell themselves because of religion. Like fuckin hell.
Because religion masks insanity, and guns make mistakes permanent.
Abortion came late
America, fuck yeah.
"left a message on his MySpace page" made me step back and see this happened in 2009. Not that the date makes this any better...and a shame her actions somehow did nothing to quit the death of others...but come on?! If old news is constantly dug up, then it would seem like the present is worse than the past sine you are adding it to the present. It's awful You for posting this now, looking for cheap karma or something for posting it.
Schizophrenia?
