The Mirror said:A woman allegedly shot her husband dead after seeing he added a porn channel to their TV bill.
Patricia Ann Hill, 69, is accused of shooting Frank Hill, 65, twice after she "flew into a rage".
Prosecutors described how Patricia, from Arkansas, America, had already deleted the channel from their subscription once, but "lost her mind" after seeing it re-added.
She is accused of going into her husband's shed, dubbed the 'man cave', to confront him before knocking over a table of his beer and cigarettes in anger.
Patricia then allegedly returned to the house where she retrieved a pistol and shot her husband after walking back into his shed, according to the Pine Bluff Commercial.
Frank was shot once in the leg, then a second time near his upper body
Last night I went to bed without having shot anyone, my guns didn't shoot anyone by themselves either. This was the case for the many tens of millions of gun owners in this country too.
I've had guns in my home my entire life, they've only made me safer.

"near his upper body"... is that what the Pine Bluff Commercial says too (blocking UK seemingly)? does their readership have a mental maturity of a typical 5 year old or something?
She then went back into the house, where she picked up a pistol, and went back to the shed, shooting Frank Hill. He was bent over picking up the things that had been on the table when the shots were fired. He was hit once in the leg, just above the right knee, then a second time.
You could argue that teaching the older generations basic computer skills is now a matter of life and death. Had he known that a browser in private/incognito mode was all he needed to avoid the wrath of his psycho wife, he would still be with us. Getting wifi in the shed is slightly more challenging, but with those basic PC skills, he could have google fu'd the answer.
Regardless, this story really should not focus on the gun imo. She could have stabbed him multiple times with a chef's knife, etc. given the circumstances. The gun was definitely easier, but if she was that ragingly psychotic, she would have gotten the job done without it. This was about the lady's cheese falling off the cracker far more than gun violence. Which brings us right back to the mental health issue/debate.
You could have made this post shorter by saying 'I don't understand statistics and prefer to reason emotionally'.
I understand statistics just fine and am using logic here.

Probably frustration of inaction leading people to push further down the path, rather than push harder toward the first steps.Like..I find it odd that lately I've been agreeing with some of what SS is saying, but is it just me or is this board lately becoming more far radical left? I mean, it's like no one has any understanding of personal accountability and wants to blame everyone everything else but the person for their own issues. I'm not even remotely conservative and even I understand that guns aren't the root of any of these problems.

For sure, the rise of irresponsible gun ownership being pushed by conservatives is having a revenge effect. No right can long exist when its abuse is tolerated or encouraged.Probably frustration of inaction leading people to push further down the path, rather than push harder toward the first steps.
I don't disagree with you, but I just want to say that this problem of blaming everyone but the person is by no means limited to guns or the 'radical left.' SlowSpyder here, for example, is continuously blaming ideas, religions, and groups for the actions of individuals. As do most conservatives on the 'right.' And not just today, but for always. How long ago was it that conservatives were preaching that certain drugs were the cause of all crimes?
My point being, what you're criticizing as leftist, is only leftist for this particular issue. Otherwise, it's a shared characteristic across the political spectrum. Because it's easier, and generally more politically advantageous, to blame things, ideas, and groups for the actions of individuals than it is to blame the individuals. It's easier to say, you're doing it wrong, than it is to provide a feasible solution.
While spidey not understanding statistics is a well documented fact, trotting out every Florida Man "look at this responsible gun owner" anecdote is a bit of a reverse of the same coin.You could have made this post shorter by saying 'I don't understand statistics and prefer to reason emotionally'.
