Terrible situation. The 4 victims were not known to thr assailant and it appears to be a random attack. Guy supposedly has PTSD and was using methamphetamine. He surrendered after a gun fight with deputies but then tried taking a cops gun in the hospital. Medical staff sedated him and he was restrained successfully.

Evidently he broke into the wrong house thinking he was going to save a girl from killing herself (that never lived there).

When the people in the house told him the girl didn’t live there, he became engaged and executed them all, including a dog and an infant.

There is a place secured in the deepest pits of hell for child killers.

RIP to that family.

Brutal, but not surprising considering what this guy was suffering with.

I don’t care of the guy was a veteran or not. Meth or ptsd is never an excuse for that

 

[oldshadow]

I don't care what his problems were. He was a meth head and people knew he had problems. All were justification for taking his weapons.

The pstd is not a excuse and I hope he gets the death penalty.

 

[Mr Holmes]

Death penalty.

And another white man who killed numerous people is taken into custody alive.

 

[Simple Southerner]

I'm not always for the death penalty but this guy deserves it.

no there isn't.
there's no punishment to be had.
it's just childish to assume there's some afterlife reckoning. there ain't.

Yea that's what happens we you do what you are told.

But if it makes you feel better the cops (and alot of people) wish he had wanted to fight back instead of just dropping the gun.

Plenty of dead black men would disagree.

Twice as many white men.

Only I'm raw numbers. Per capita, being black makes getting killed by the cops even if you're trying to comply much more likely.

Not when you consider frequency of police interactions. But stop derailing the thread. Start a new one if you want to talk about it.

Most of them and the men of other racist that were killed because they refused to do what they were told.

Sure there are bad cops with bad shooting of all racist of people and they need to be held accountable.

But a lot on the left hold up justified shootings as bad ones.
