Stoned to death.

Stoned to death.

Biblical story?

Modern day Afghanistan?

Nope, about a mile from my house in Fort Worth. This neighborhood has become a war zone. 11 people were shot at a car wash on July 4th, after midnight. And no cars were being washed, I assure you.

FORT WORTH, Texas - A group of people in Fort Worth stoned a gunman to death after a shooting killed one and injured two others.

Just before 1 a.m. Monday, investigators say the man started firing at a crowd in Fort Worth's Como neighborhood on the southwest side near Bryant Irvin Road and the Chisholm Trail Parkway.

One person died in the shooting and two others were hurt, but are expected to survive.


The crowd then started throwing gardening stones and killed the gunman.

It's not clear what exactly led up to the shooting. Police have only said it started with some kind of disturbance.


Police also say the people involved all knew each other. At this point no names have been released of those involved in the incident.

So much for “the good guy with a gun” trope the pro-NRA nutjobs like to parrot.

All yall need is a few stones! :more beer:

Since our national pastime is baseball, advantage Americans.

And the Japanese and Cubans.

Don't worry, we still shoot plenty of bad guys too. We don't all rely on stones.

But in reality, most bad guys turn around when faced with an angry armed person. Most bad guys are sorta dumb, but they still understand what happens when they get shot amd try to avoid it.

The Rolling Stones start their American tour in a few weeks.
Charlie on drums is 81 the rest aren't far behind.
We could end up with some live deaths on stage.
What a way to go!
They mainlined a lot of coke amphetamine and heroin.
I'm convinced their gear must have been cut with preservatives and their whisky was cut with formaldehyde.

"Most".

Some don't appreciate the equalizing nature of a weapon.

They should come play in this neighborhood of Fort Worth.

Make sure they bring the Hells Angel's again for security. It's a rough area.

If by armed you mean armed with a firearm that's not as true as you might hope.

Under pressure most people, even those who are practiced and trained, can barely hit the side of a barn with a handgun and when the first shot is fired an armed confrontation become inevitable. Most 'bad guys' are trying to do a 'bad' thing undisturbed and if they're disturbed by so much as a cat they'll haul ass out unless some smart ass with a gun starts to he's John Wayne.

You act like Americans usually miss when they shoot at each other. :gigglesnshit:

And you are correct that most burglars will run when confronted. Most will run even faster if they see a gun.

But there are those sick fuckers that are there for more personal reasons.
