I know. The guys I worked with were always asking me if I wanted to shoot my ex because he left me. Why would I? I like you never understood that.

I heard the husband shot the wife because of the boyfriend. Was the husband and wife still together? I feel sorry for the three children, the have to live with what happened for the rest of their lives.

Regardless whether or not they were still together,or even if this were out&out adultery,one NEVER has the right to leave their kid[s]without a mom[or in rare cases,dad]!NEVER!A'barring legit self defence because they're the one being attacked&have no choice!

And as far as that gutless p[sic]y in the body of a man "boyfriend" who just ran off and ABANDONED that poor MOM to be murdered:That worthless COWARD should be run through a meatgrinder feet first while still alive!NO ONE has any right to be involved with a women[even if she's just a one night stand!]if he doesn't even have the guts to even die for her if needed!I HATE COWARDS!!!!

The boyfriend was shot also. He didn`t run away like madbear suggested. The husband had a history of drug abuse and we all know what that will do. There are a lot of people out here in the country that are addicts or users and there needs to be a big change somewhere. The court system slaps them on the hand when they do catch them, so they are usually home before the paperwork gets done. The ex-wife had tried to get an order of protection and was either denied or it hadn`t been put through yet. It is really tragic that this happened as far as the children are concerned, but drugs do this every day somewhere in this country and the victims are always the children.

The "order of protection" that will save you from one of these psychos is called a concealed-carry permit. It's a piece of paper certifying that you can and might do unto that type what that type would do unto you--possibly first.

Right on to thompaliver,and I just can't figure out why hardly anyone--ESPECIALLY women in dangerous situations!--owns&carries a firearm when it's perfectly legal to!

Also on Weird's point:I admit the early reports were conflicting&confusing,and one I heard stated the boyfriend was shot AFTER the wife.If true,meaning he was caught by surprise and it was already too late,I STILL say he should have been armed&expecting possible trouble,but people make mistakes.HOWEVER,if he DID run off first,albiet wounded--but not bad enough to stop him from running out,that's STILL...INFAMA!

The concealed carry law is great. I endorse it heartily because it could serve as a deterrant to some criminals that think before committing a crime. We have had legal open carry in the state of Missouri for as long as I can remember. There is a fine line between carrying a rifle on a gun rack in your pickup truck and actually touching the gun to try to stop a criminal offense. If you took your rifle out to stop a robbery, you are brandishing a deadly weapon unless you have a badge to legally do police work. With a crime of passion there is very seldom enough time to access a handgun or rifle. A well trained rifleman can fire a fatal shot at distances up to 1,000 yards. You can`t prepare yourself for an attact from that distance. I have a rifle that will penetrate a half inch steel plate at 350 yards, and am able to hit a target the size of a small cantelope at that range also. A well trained rifleman could do the same at three times that distance. That is over 1/2 mile. Carrying a pistol would do nothing against this sort of attact. When you see a family member that is acting goofy enough to commit such an act, report them or intervene yourself. Convince them that they need help. And given this man`s reputation for drug use, somebody should have reported him a long time ago.
