Tuesday

I posted this in regards to the Ding Dong Ditch murderer in Texas
https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=20608751

I need to look at the murderer's background. He appears to be a product of Poor Home Training. People who do these things usually are. 20 some odd guns in his home? That's an Arsenal. It was only a matter of time before his two year old put hands on one and killed him.

In this case you've posted - the 2 year old killed himself.
