Guns are Bad News for Men

The Mercury News reports.

A man was in critical condition tonight after a shooting that apparently resulted from a domestic dispute at an apartment complex in unincorporated Bay Point, a Contra Costa County sheriff's lieutenant said.

The shooting was reported at 8:07 p.m. at an apartment complex in the 2900 block of Mary Ann Lane, sheriff's Lt. Steve Simpkins said.

The victim was shot at least twice and was taken to John Muir Medical Center. He was in critical condition as of 9:45 p.m., Simpkins said.

A woman was arrested on suspicion of the shooting, which apparently was the result of a dispute between her and the victim, both of whom are in their 40s, according to Simpkins.

He said investigators were still at the scene of the shooting as of 9:45 p.m. and were "working to determine exactly what happened."

Not much to go on here. I'd hate to invent all kinds of possible scenarios when the facts are so scant. Suffice it to say, there goes another loser, or perhaps two losers.

If the relationship was so abusive, she should have got out before she had to shoot the guy. If she shot him because she was out of control, raging or high, that's even worse. Come to think of it, even in this case, guns are bad news for women.
