Man shoots and kills wife...

That is a crazy story.

I call bulls***. Seriously, no way someone can be that stupid, as well as do it with people in the house.

"Hey honey stand on the other side of this wall and make sure this bullet doesn't ricochet".

Apparently, he had trouble getting a hole into the wall of his trailer. So he decided to start firing bullets into it.

 

Wow.

 

Looks like a house to me. Where does the story say it's a trailer? :huh Or are you implying that someone this dumb has to live in a trailer?

It's a good implication. In this case, incorrect, but 9/10 the guy using the gun to punch a hole in his wall lives in a trailer.

Really?

 

What else can we say about 9/10 people that live in a trailer? Or 9/10 blacks? 9/10 Jews? 9/10 Asians? 9/10 women?

 

Maybe I'm over-reacting a bit, I'll admit, but I still think it's a valid point and falls under the rules of Soxtalk:

I honestly don't know why I said trailer - other than maybe I couldn't believe a little .22 could actually pierce the full outside wall of a real house and still kill someone. Must be some really thin walls.

Don't get me wrong, NS. I don't think you intended any malice. Just making a point.

 

It may be an old house without insulation and old, brittle drywall / plaster. I'd like to know what else he was trying to use that he was so unsuccessful to try a gun as a last resort???

Personally, I think you're overestimating the intelligence of the kind of person who would think of using a gun for this purpose at all if you're thinking it was a last resort.

Probably, but the story made it seem that way.

 

I wonder if Comcast will use this is their next sattellite bashing commercial.

I'd say you are over-reacting more than just a bit there.

I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that there may have been a little alcohol involved.

I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that there may have been a little "I'm going to murder my wife now" involved.

Wow, just wow.

Now that makes far more sense than anything else I have heard so far...

I'll admit I was to NorthSider's comment, but I won't to yours. Your comment was the one that really pisses me off. No, I don't live in a trailer, but I also don't go around making rude, sterotypical comments about people that live in them either.

Well, if I offended anyone, I apologize. It appears I made an assumption, and I am not sure why, other than maybe the thin walls - but its a bit embarrassing. So again, sorry that I accidentally started this little wildfire.

No wildfire. I'm cool. You said you made an error. I can accept that.

 

Now, what have you got against aliens, you biggot? ;)

I don't apologize because it was such an obvious joke. When did Soxtalk become the no-fun zone?

 

And to think I was such a fan of Monsters, Inc!

And a very funny joke at that. Thanks for the good laugh.

You are most welcome.

I knew it would be Missouri. Yeah Missouri.

Just to toss a log on the fire and add another stereotype, his neighbor is wearing a NASCAR hat, you know, just sayin'

 

I'm buying the accident defense.
