Explains a lot

And all it takes is a poorly socialized moron to sling around outraged F-bombs because a blogger was insufficiently sympathetic toward what procsecutors say is a confessed cold-blooded murderer.

From
Wednesday's Omaha World-Herald:

Kyle Bormann has admitted firing the shot that killed 21-year-old Brittany
Williams, a prosecutor said Wednesday in Douglas County Court.

The 19-year-old Omaha man was denied bail by Judge Jeffrey Marcuzzo. Marcuzzo cited the seriousness of the crime in his decision.

Bormann, who lived with his father in the Ponca Hills area, was charged Tuesday with first-degree murder and use of a weapon to commit a felony. He is accused of firing a rifle at Williams on Sunday evening as she sat in her car in the drive-through lane at the Kentucky Fried Chicken/Long John Silver's restaurant at 7601 N. 30th St. Police said he was about 100 yards away.

The restaurant is a little over two miles down 30th Street from the Bormann house.

During an interview at the police station, Smith said, Bormann admitted firing his rifle at Williams' car while she waited in the drive-through lane.

Authorities have said Bormann shot Williams with a Winchester .243-caliber bolt-action rifle that had a Bushnell scope.

Douglas County Attorney Don Kleine said Wednesday afternoon that Bormann was wearing camouflage and that he had been drinking alcohol prior to the shooting.

About a dozen of Williams' friends and relatives attended Wednesday's hearing.

After the hearing, Jerard Christian, a cousin of Williams who serves in the U.S. Army, said, "This is ridiculous. Something needs to be done about all this gun violence in Omaha. I am trained in the military, and to take somebody's life because he's upset about something, he has no idea how many lives he's hurt by this."

SORRY, ANONYMOUS, all my sympathy has been used up on the poor girl your pal with the high-powered blew away at the KFC. Allegedly.

But your artful missive has explained a lot. I think it's explained that my generation has raised a bunch of foul-mouthed, unsocialized, violent butt-wipes who we may well have reason to fear.

Or at least disarm.

Thanks for sharing.

You get the children, the future and the consequences you deserve, folks, for the way you've let ideology trump reality with your children.

Don't think they don't see you preach virtue out of one side of your mouths while spouting childish epithets like "loser" out of the other.

You have seen the enemy, Pogo, and he is you.

And what would you suggest calling potheads who take rifles and gun down innocent people for the hell of it? Hero?

The cult of self-esteem has gone way too far when it's somehow illegitimate to call murderers (alleged murderer, in this case, despite his alleged confession) exactly what they are.

Losers.

Does oo want Favog to gibs oo a tweat for witing oo siwwy wittle comment now?

Oh, and for the record, nobody "deserves" a society of murderous little s***s who shoot innocent young women for the thrill of it all. Nobody.

I see by your other blog posts that you're a "pro-life" advocate. I assume that means that for the last 30 years you've thrown your vote away on supply-side economists in the hopes that the lip service they give your pet cause will bear fruit. While your conscience dictates that the unborn must be protected, those who you believed would do something about it destroyed the nuclear family in the name of production and profit.

Seems to me the only "losers" in this scenario are families wondering how their faith in the lies of the supply-side right got them sold right down the river.

Ask the average kid whether they'd prefer to have their mom at home or a new iPod. You absolutely got the society you deserve.

BTW - your italicised tirade above does little to add credence to your point.

You should maybe think about that.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh . . . if you weren't so busy readjusting the chip on your shoulder about folks like me getting what we deserve from murderous teens -- whom we ought not call "losers" at any cost because that would be judgmental (unlike how you're being) -- you would see that's exactly my point.

Pro-lifers have been played into voting against their economic self-interest by disingenuous GOP pols. And if the Democrats weren't so intent on pursuing the "f***ing is an entitlement and abortion keeps it that way" party line, the Republicans would go back to being a marginalized, permanent-minority party.

And after George Bush, deservedly so.

Furthermore, tirades that are good for the goose are equally good for the gander.
