Shooting over a parking space ?

Just caught a short clip on the news about a man who shot at police over a parking space. Went to search the web to show you guys and my lord !, there is tons of stories over parking space shootins.

WTF has this world come to ? !

It's not that people have become more irrational, it's that we have more people...resulting in fewer parking spaces.

I was reading somewhere (One of Grumpy's other forums I think) about people shoveling snow out of a parking place and have some jerk come park in it. That might lead to a slow painful death, not a shooting.

with this HEAVY WET CONCRETE, er, i mean, SNOW we've gotten up here in the n.e. the last 2 days, a slow painful death is putting it mildly. ( at thief)

It's not the world it is this country.

England 1 out of a million deaths do to guns per year

United States 40 out of a million.

England had one of those madmen kills of dozens of people years ago and passed very strict gun regulation that has worked.

In the US every time we have a postal or campus killing the NRA throws millions of dollars at spinning it into "we need more guns."

Out rate continues to rise.

we had 8 inches yesterday and a prediction of 1 to 3 feet today/tomorrow with a snow cover before this week..

Looks like all the powerful storms that have gone south this year have found there normal path finally.

Yeah... it was on a public street. I still think that someone that would take advantage of someone elses hard work like that is an a$$hole. I recognize the fact that the digger had no legal claim on the spot.
