She should have used protection.

In a grocery store, and he wasn't her only child. The gun was in her purse, and her purse was in the basket with the kid.

From what I've read so far, they didn't say if she was registered to carry the gun or why she even had the gun.

My step daughters boy friend is one of these 20 somethings with no life skills to offer, no job and no prospects. Every time I see this moron he starts talking about his guns. I keep telling him I don't want to hear about his guns, and he's got me confused for someone who gives a shit about guns.

Now I'm all for gun rights, but pro gun people bare a huge responsibility for any and all of the backlash they are getting from guns. My daughter brought this moron over on Christmas eve and he spent all night trying to damage control and get into my good graces. Of course by the only means he knows how. By talking to me about guns. He informed me that got rid of all of his semi automatic handguns and now has assault riffles. And if only he can get me out to the gun range, he's sure we'll have a great family bonding moment.

Then he starts telling me how my daughter is a natural at it.
I had to interrupt him at this point and enforce my initial assessment that his cracker doesn't go to the top floor where the few pieces of chicken short of a picnic is taking place.

Me "So you're telling me, you're training (X) to be killer?"

Him "Well no we're just target practicing at the gun range."

Me "Well let me ask you a question Mr. Target practice. Suppose you use a bulls eye target or do you use human silhouette?"

Him "Well they are bad guy forms, you score by grouping, (X) can hit the heart and head all of the time."

Me "Shut the fuck up, you just don't get it do you?"
still Me "Don't they have regular Bulls eye targets for you to use?"

Him "Yeah but they cost more."

So bulls eyes cost more, even though I'm sure it takes less ink. I think only law enforcement, military and criminals are the only people who should be even allowed to target practice at the human body form, with live ammo. If you want to know what it's like to shoot at people. Then go play the X-Box.

Finally I told this guy, I don't dislike you. You just don't have anything to offer me. We're two different people. If you had your shit together and had a job and income. And gun collecting and shooting was a "Hobby" of yours. Then you might be able to get me out to shoot at targets. Though I prefer squirrel hunting or shooting at cans on a fence out in the country somewhere. Over going to a gun range, around a bunch of strangers I don't know armed to the hilt. I mean lets face it, you frequent those places. I wouldn't want to be a mile any where near you with a gun.

He still tried to convince me how safe he is and the guns are locked up in a cabinet with locks on them. I told him, "Yeah but you have the key. Guns don't scare me, people who shouldn't have guns scare me. "

The way I see it, your gun is an opportunity where no other prospects or options exist for you at this point in your life. That does not make your guns a passion or a harmless hobby, it makes you dangerous.

Guys like him and the moron in the OP are why guns will be eventually outlawed in this country. And it will be a damned shame too, that there isn't at least as much control on guns as there is for driving a car. You can lose your license for the silliest of things but as long as you don't get arrested you can own a gun. Not that it matters anyway. This guy has had his share with run ins with the law.

It was probably a reaction formation by the son against his oedipus complex. He could not handle the guilt placed upon him by society for wanting to "possess" his mother.

Kid probably grabbed a handful of candy bars at the checkout counter, and Mom grabbed them away and slapped the little bugger. He merely exercised his second amendment rights to get what he wanted.

Why to they hate precocity?

Anyway, latex is the best defense.

If you want him tortured, I can give you a few tips.
