The owner of the guns who probably had them under his pillow and in the night-stand drawer should be in jail. That's the source of the guns. That's where they passed from the possession of a law-abiding gun owner to the hands of young criminals.
Charging the girl with homicide seems a bit exaggerated, don't you think. She did what thousands of lawful gun owners do all the time, forget the one in the chamber. That's negligence, not murder.

The family whines about how he was a good kid who wanted better for himself. No, he wasn't a good kid. He was a thief. His equally criminal girlfriend murdered him. I don't care if she thought the gun would shoot out jelly doughnuts. The pair of them are thugs. Now, he's dead and she'll be in prison.
ReplyDeleteProbably Negligent Homicide, Mike, which is the possible charge in many cases. An ambitious prosecutor might try felony murder if this was immediately after the burglary, but that would be a bit much of a stretch.
ReplyDeleteAs for your comments about the homeowner, he had the guns in a locked home. The idea that you would want to jail him because thieves stole his property is the most disgusting proposal you've ever come up with. Anyone who passes such a law or prosecutes such a case should meet with Mussolini's fate.
It's called safe storage. You gun-rights fanatics are opposed to it, but it would cut way down on theft and therefore save lives.
DeleteWhat we're opposed to is your efforts to decide what good citizens can do with their property in their own homes. As long as you side with criminals, you will fail.
DeleteWe like safe storage as a principle. What we don't care for is your side's attempts to make gun owners liable for the crimes of those who steal their property.
DeleteAnd we don't like all the idiot gun owners who leave their guns around as easy pickin's. Proper gun control laws would include safe storage in the home. Fewer kids would get their hands on guns and way fewer thieves would.
DeleteYou guys are like adolescents who hate to be told what to do. Grow up.
When you give a satisfactory explanation as to who made you an authority, we'll listen.
DeleteTranslation of Mikeb's comment: All law-biding gun owners can potentially have their firearms stolen and then be used by others, we won't call them criminals, to commit crimes, therefore, all firearms owned by law-biding citizens must be confiscated so that others, we must not call them criminals, cannot commit crimes.

Wow, twice in a month or so that a thief is killed by his own loot. Somebody give that 17 year old a Darwin Award!
ReplyDeleteThe guns were not laying around, they were locked up in the gun owners home.
ReplyDeleteIf these three thieving retards/budding democrat party members had been going to school, rather that stealing other peoples hard earned things they would still be alive.......
so FUCK THEM!!!!!!!
Mister good little ROTC just got shot a little earlier than if he joined the military after ROTC..... And boo fuckign hoo on his burial family can't afford i,t oh fucking well, maybe they should have raised little Raymond better, they should cremate him and flush the remains down the nearest shitter.....
Locked up in a home is not good enough, obviously. Of course rather than be told what to do by the government, you'd prefer that hundreds of thousands of guns get stolen each year.
