Gun Shop Owner And Son Die In Shootout Over $25 Service Charge


It is true that guns don't kill people.

Crazy people with guns kill people.

Which is why there are almost no fatalities in the current Palestinian uprising against Israeli Jews.  Crazy Palestinians simply don't have access toguns 
and it's waaayyyyy harder to kill someone with a knife.


Alan: A handgun is designed to kill human beings. It has no purpose other than destruction and the threat of destruction.

The designed purpose of a car is to transport people.

When people fail to make the necessary connection between "the nature of a tool" and the overwhelmingly likely "use of that tool" in accordance with its nature, we witness 1.) the unfolded cortices of American "conservatives," or 2.) the failure of American schools.

The indwelling purpose of a tool begs for that tool to be used in accordance with its nature.

By nature, guns incline users to shoot living things and cars incline people to move from Point A to Point B.

When a gun is used to kill (or injure) someone, the gun has achieved its designed purpose.

When a car is used to kill someone death is an accidental deviation from its designed purpose.

You get what you pay for.

When you pay for a gun, you pay for a device whose designed purpose is killing.

When a drunk uses a car to kill someone, the problem is that the drunk had access to a car.

Lacking access, the drunk would have remained a drunk and no one would have died.

The problem is how to keep drunks from accessing motor vehicles and to keep malicious people from accessing guns. 

The latter is in fact an achievable end as we see in the aftermath of the Port Arthur massacre.

The Key Question
If ever more guns make America safer,
why are we not already the safest country in the the world?

Gun Shop Owner And Son Die In Shootout Over $25 Service Charge

Investigators don't know whether the customers or the owners started the shooting Saturday afternoon at McLemore Gun Shop near Picayune, Miss.

 01/24/2016

PICAYUNE, Miss. (AP) — A gun shop owner and his 17-year-old son died in a shootout over a $25 service charge, and another man and his 29-year-old son are hospitalized, Mississippi authorities said.
Investigators don't know whether the customers or the owners started the shooting Saturday afternoon at McLemore Gun Shop near Picayune, and want to figure out just what happened before filing any charges, Pearl River County Sheriff David Allison told the Sun Herald (http://bit.ly/1OFTOGr ).
He identified the owner and his son as Jason McLemore, 44, and Jacob McLemore, 17, WLOX-TV (http://bit.ly/1Jvbi9I ) reported Sunday.
Michael McCool, 29, allegedly shot both with a 40-caliber pistol, he told the station.
He said McCool was in intensive care at University Hospital in New Orleans, and his father, Andy McCool, 52, was at Forrest General Hospital in Mississippi.
Andy McCool apparently was hit in the back, but investigators don't know how he was injured, WLOX reported.
Neither Allison nor Chief Deputy Shane Tucker was available for comment when The Associated Press called for an update Sunday.
The McCools came to pick up a gun and got angry because there was a $25 service charge even though the gun had not been fixed, Allison told WJTV (http://bit.ly/23lXWTH ).
He said Jason McLemore's wife was at the shop, and called her husband in to clear up the dispute.
"We believe there might have been some pushing and shoving," Tucker told the Sun Herald.
McLemore's wife was not injured.
