8) http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/7810192.stm 8)

Quote:
A 12-year-old boy has been found guilty in the United States of murdering his mother following a row over his household chores.

A judge in Arizona ruled prosecutors had proved the boy acted intentionally when he shot his mother, Sara Madrid, eight times last year.

The boy, from the city of Douglas in Cochise County, was found guilty of premeditated murder.

He has not been identified because he was charged as a juvenile.

He is due to be sentenced on 23 January.

The hearing took place in Cochise County Superior Court in the southern Arizona town of Bisbee.

According to prosecutors, the shooting happened after the boy had argued with his mother over chores.

He got a pistol from a bedroom cupboard and shot Sara Madrid repeatedly.


Good lord.

A later quote:

Quote:
Her live-in boyfriend of 10 years, Alfonso Munoz, saw what happened and he says the boy gave him the empty gun afterwards.

Mr Munoz, who helped raise the boy, said he had taught him how to use the weapon for emergencies and self-defence.


An unusual emergency there. Probably on the last level of Super Mario when he had to take the trash out.

What the fuck is wrong with people?! Why in the hell teach a kid to use a bloody gun to defend himself? Guns are NOT okay and kids should be taught that

Well some people like guns, I suppose. Others like shitting dwarves. I can't judge them. Shoot them all and let Pan decide!

Shitting dwarves with guns? This would be a compromise between the two and-....okay leaving this thread alone now as I'll be dreaming about them!

Yeah, it probably was a video game.

Jesus Fucking Christ: Oh man, final boss.
Sara: JFC, take out the trash!
JFC: In a minute, mom, just gotta beat this and I'll be right there.
S: NOW! I'm a shrill and unpleasant screechy mother and my stupid parenting magazines tell me I must assert my authority by not backing down.
JFC: Aw man. Please?
S: *screams incomprehensibly*
Alfonso: I think you bes' do wha de beetch tells you, homes.
JFC: I can't pause this bit and *dies in game* AW FUCK IT!
S: *continues to rant*
A: Yo, you stepped in the garbage water, esse.
JFC: That does it. Having to live with a fucking Mexican gangster was bad enough, but interrupting me halfway through one of the most hateful boss battles ever is the final straw. I'll never finish Conan on the 360 now! But I *will* finish my mom off once and for all.
A: Ey, whatever, man. I is going to sleep.
JFC: Perfect.

Guns don't kill people. Children kill people.

Just think - if those liberal bastards hadn't forced through all those gun laws curbing our freedom the mother could have defended herself. With another gun.

Will no one think of the children?

Guns don't kill people, massive internal injuries, blood loss and impact shock caused by high velocity projectiles kill people. Guns are just the delivery system
