Man Gets 100 Years for Accidentally Killing His 8-Year-Old Daughter While Trying to Shoot His 18-Year-Old Son
Tony Valez, 66, flew into a rage when he thought he was being evicted from his home, authorities said.

I am confused by the way this is reported. Did he mistake his son and his ex-partner to be officers who had come to evict him and shoot at them? Or did he hold them responsible for his looming eviction?
Anyway, US really need better gun control. Looks like any nutjob can get a gun there. It is tragic to see a young life ending this way.
Also the fact a mentally healthy person can snap in the heat of the moment.
If there's a gun nearby that can be all it takes.
Death by cop is quite popular in the States.
Sometimes it's even voluntary!
That is ridiculous, let's take a hypothetical example and replace guns with red buttons that fire nuclear missiles- why should responsible nuclear missile button owners have their rights to own nuclear missile buttons be infringed by the actions of a few nuclear missile button owning crazies? Let's not throw out the baby with the bathwater, there's plenty of perfectly normal everyday situations where owning nuclear missile buttons make absolute sense and is in fact to be considered a patriotic duty. So said musket wielding men in wigs 250 years ago, and dang nabbit, so we all say still!
