People kill peopleWhat are the odds that this shooter has a criminal record and that gun was illegally possessed?
I'm saying 3:1
Doesn't matter. I mean good luck with your betting and all, hope you win lotsa money, but it doesn't bring the victim back does it.
>> It was during the peak of the homebound commute, witnesses said, that they saw a dangerous “cat-and-mouse game” in which two motorists were jockeying for positions on a quarter-mile stretch of highway where two lanes become one.
When it was over, an 18-year-old college-bound Chester County girl was dead, her family and friends were devastated, and a nationwide manhunt had begun for the driver of a faded red pickup who shot and killed Bianca Roberson in what police said was a road rage murder.
“This homicide was completely senseless,” said West Goshen Police Chief Joseph Gleason. “A beautiful young lady of 18 years of age, in the prime of her life, getting ready to go off to college. And for reasons that are incomprehensible to me, the family is now planning her funeral instead of a going-away party for college.”
More than 20 investigators were sorting through hundreds of leads by email and phone from across the country, collecting video clips, and canvassing the streets for clues to what happened on the Route 100 bypass at about 5:30 p.m. Wednesday. Police Capt. Gregory Stone called the incident a “heartless” act unlike any he’d witnessed in his 32-year career.
Police have retrieved and reviewed video footage from PennDot cameras just moments before the shooting, Noone said. Still images can be viewed on the Crime Stoppers webpage.
.... Authorities on Friday announced a $5,000 Crimestoppers reward and urged anyone with information to contact police at 610-696-7400 or [email protected].
“This is going to come down, ladies and gentlemen, to assistance by the public,” Gleason said. “The family deserves this. Society in general deserves this.” << --- Philly.com
He shot a stranger dead, for the purpose of getting ten feet further ahead on an exit ramp.
But what's important to remember is, "we don't have a gun problem".

Stereotype much?I see big truck guys, and that rolling coal stuff. Huge puffs of diesel efflux and nothing else. Smoke and no mirrors. usually poorly hung white guys with a big inferiority complex and a gun in the rack and aggression issues.

Nice story cherry picked for your political convenience. An alleged white man killing a black girl. It doesn't change the fact that thugs pull the trigger.
People kill peopleWhat are the odds that this shooter has a criminal record and that gun was illegally possessed?

People have always killed people
People will always kill people
I find it funny that you don't really care about the people who are beaten to death stabbed or strangled and only those that are shot

Hey, feel free to show us a story of a motorist beating up, stabbing or strangling another motorist while they're both moving.
As usual summa y'all don't get that the point is not "murder", but "shooting". Not the end result but the action.
"Guns are completely safe..." "Guns are inanimate objects..." "People kill people."The conversation needs to be had.

If you just banned people then you wouldn't have these problems![]()
Pressure cooker bombs are completely safe, too, until detonated by a person. Doesn't mean we sell them in WalMart. Guns are killing machines. That is their purpose. You can kill a person with a gun driving your car with nary a scratch, and sometimes you don't even get caught. Drive by shootings and this road rage incident are examples. Yes, a person operated the gun. Of course that's how it works and the person is responsible for using that killing machine. Without the gun, the person would have had the messy option of banging up his own truck in order to force her off the road. Drive by knifings? How well do those work? Walking into the Bronx hospital and stabbing six selected ex-coworkers on two floors? I don't think he would have gotten that far.
Harm reduction, Lucy.
Sure murderers will always be with us. They'll be slowed down a lot without guns.
And more to my point, they'd be slowed down a lot without the continuous fetish-glorification of them, which appears to be the motivation of some wags here who want to take an obvious social sickness and make it "political" or "guns shooting themselves" or whatever other lunacy nobody brought up.
This is the same issue that was flaring the day I joined this site, being just after the Bob Costas Monday Night Football commentary on Jovan Belcher, and a few days before Adam Lanza punctuated the entire issue with twenty exclamation points in Connecticut.
Costas' commentary has been uploaded literally thousands of times on YouTube. Nearly every one of these uploads describes it as a "gun control rant".....
----- DESPITE the naked fact that Costas never once mentions "gun control", never once alludes to any laws, never once makes any mention of Second Amendment rights. The entire commentary is centered on the illness of a society that thinks the solution to everybody's problem is "a gun". Football player Jovan Belcher had just shot his wife and infant, then drove to his football practice and blew his own brains out in front of his coaches. A week before that a driver in Jacksonville Florida had shot into a car parked next to him objecting to its loud music (and killed a kid). Then just after that, the commentary was pushed off the front pages by Lanza, and a week after that, William Spegler ambushing firefighters in Webster New York.
All different shootings, all different motivations, with one thing in common --- "I can deal with this problem by shooting at it" THAT is, and always was, the issue. That's what the Costas commentary addressed, and yet all these YouTubers and commenters here, and elsewhere, desperately tried to morph it into "gun control" apparently because they can't stand to face the social-values issue this actually IS.
Oh no, we don't DARE talk about that. Engage deflector shields!
That's been my message the entire time I've been here at USMB (and before). And here five years later, Ignorami are still here going![]()
The Eagles Dirty Laundry comes to mind........Now onto the breaking news: the local police have captured what they believe is the truck and have a suspect in custody. They only say he's 28, no name or other details given. Story here.
In their usual narcissistic-media way the local TV station crows that "only Action News was there!" as the cops came in with the Chevy Silverado truck. Because what's important is not a murder of a young lady, not road rage, not having a gun problem --- what matters is "only Action News was there!"

All you've done here is troll. You're ignoring everything I've posted in the thread, even in the nest of your own quotes, and insisting I re-post it all over again so you can ignore that too. If you had a specific question or point on any part of it you would have thought of it by now. You're doing a Peewee Herman "I know you are but what am I" routine, and it's unbecoming.

It's true, that's what I keep saying about commercial media. Sometimes it coincides that a story they can milk for profit is also one that's important, as here, but they'll still find a way to make it about themselves. One of several filters we have to engage just to be informed.
