Shocker, the right wing hate machine that encourages violence against “the others” led to violence?

I am fucking shocked.

A 14-year-old was shot in the head as she played hide and seek, Louisiana deputies say. Now a neighbor is facing multiple charges.

David V. Doyle, 58, was arrested Sunday, May 7, after the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office said he opened fire on a group of kids playing on his property and “unknowingly hit the girl.”

Deputies were called about a shooting at a home in Starks early that morning, authorities wrote in a news release. They arrived to find a teen who was shot in the back of the head.

Several kids were playing in the area and used a neighbor’s property to hide, according to the sheriff’s office. The property owner, identified as Doyle, told deputies he went inside and grabbed his gun after he saw shadows outside his home, the release said.

Doyle said when he went back outside, he saw several people running from his property and opened fire.

Firing a gun at people running from your property: very normal behavior

Sounds like an honest mistake. With wording like that, I guess I can guess the victim’s color.

They have to start being prosecuted and locked away for a long time for this shit to stop. Anybody who shoots someone in the back running away from their property for any reason should get an automatic 15 years.

At the bare minimum they should lose any right to ever legally own a firearm for the rest of their lives.

This sounds crazy if you think about it, but I actually think in USA#1 it would be easier to impose 15 year sentences on people than take away their gun rights.

I looked this up and it looks like the flipping starts as it goes over the curb, towards the crowd, at a very high speed.

Best case for the driver is that he’s a terrible driver who was going way too fast and lost control at the worst possible time & place. If it was 100% intentional I don’t know that the video looks any different than what we see.

Last year the FBI warned: “Some families of aging US war veterans are finding unexpected, and highly dangerous, souvenirs among their loved ones’ belongings - ticking time bombs.”

Jesus Christ, who comes back from fighting a war and thinks its a good idea to keep a fucking grenade in their fucking home. Jesus Christ this fucking country.
