Teacher living in a up scale neighborhood,enough of the Politics already and put those desk jockeys out on the street and get the job done.

That is the problem with shooting at a moving vehicle.

I don't know why you "like" trying to shoot someone in the back as they drive away.

Police: Vegas mom, son searched for vehicle before shooting

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Police now say a Las Vegas mother killed in a road rage shooting last week got in her car with her gun-toting adult son and drove around their neighborhood looking for the assailant who ended up fatally wounding her.

Lt. Ray Steiber told reporters Tuesday that no suspects have been identified in Tammy Meyers' shooting late last Thursday in a residential cul-de-sac west of the Strip.

But Steiber calls Meyers the victim in the case.

Steiber corrected some accounts of a case that became a homicide after Meyers died Saturday at a Las Vegas hospital.

Steiber says the driver of a gray or silver four-door car first approached Meyers with angry words as she drove home from a school parking lot while giving her teenage daughter a driving lesson.

I'm not surprised to discover that it was slightly more complicated than "mom inadvertently dings another vehicle (or is dinged) and is shot as she attempts to reach the safety of her home".

No would should die because of something like this and I sincerely hope that the person or persons responsible are caught and prosecuted.

I do not agree that her actions were wise and they did contribute to her death. Had she gone home instead of attempting to take the law into her own hands, she'd be alive. Full stop.

Shooting at an armed aggressor that chased them down and confronted them in a cul de sac?

From what I can tell from the various reports on this, the woman and her son went looking for the car. The son was armed. They either found the car and confronted the occupants or simply found the car (that's unclear).

The exchange - assuming there was one - ended (without shots fired) and the woman and her son returned to their home, followed by the other vehicle.
The shooting occurred at that point - so from what I can tell, the people who were in the car fired shots at the woman and her son, missing the son and hitting the woman.

So, yes; I would assume that when caught, the people in the car can be prosecuted for something. I'm not a lawyer, so I don't know what the charges might be - but they followed the woman and her son home and shot at them, hitting the woman.

If you have to follow someone moving away from you in order to shoot them, I think that takes it out of the realm of self-defense.

All that said - I'll leave it up to the police and the lawyers.

He came out shooting to defend his wife and his store. He is dead. He was the only one killed. The 4 assailants (3 of whom were shot) are alive. If he hadn't done what he did probably everyone would have lived.

And all that stuff is easily worth my life because Property rights and free enterprise! If you think those Jihad fighters have anything on us stuff collecting property traders you have got another think coming. Oh, and don't touch my car.

people's love affair with guns.

Even with all the facts right in front of them they still think it's safer for their children if they have guns in the house.

More people died from gunshot wounds in the KC area last year than died in auto accidents. That is a terrible statistic.
