Mother of 5 dead after an online spat, is going to be settled with a fist fight, except the other side brings guns. Dead mother was a bystander. 119.

Man claims self defense at a sports complex shooting.

https://www.click2houston.com/news/loca ... f-defense/

Large fight breaks out after a softball game in the parking lot, something about a foul ball. One man dead. Not going to call it murder yet because the shooter stayed at the scene and is cooperating with police. But a lot of questions. He went to his car to get his gun? He was a LTC and carried during the game or had it in is sports bag? Could he have just walked away or drove away? Someone else have a gun or knife?

Fight at bar goes outside, then shots exchanged I believe. One man dead. Supposedly the Banditos motorcycle club involved. 120.

Maybe they all went to their cars and and motorcycles and retrieved their guns, since you cannot carry in a bar. Bars are open again with social distancing and face masks?

If you move to the Country be willing and able to wield so serious firepower in your own defense!
Government, like fire is a dangerous servant and a fearful master
If you ain't paranoid you ain't paying attention
Don't fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war let it begin here- John Parker

Article says:
Police said after the game, [the soon-to-be-dead guy} pulled out a gun and pointed it at several people, including a 45-year-old suspect who was trying to break up the fight. Police said the suspect then pulled his own weapon and shot Schumaker.
Don't know if the article author or the police decided to use the term "suspect" but the police let him go and sent case to DA without charges.

This was not in the article linked above:
Witnesses told police a man, later identified as 32-year-old Shepherd Schumaker, fired several gunshots into the crowd.
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/po ... r-BB17XM3G

If true that more strongly supports the shooter's claim of self-defense.


Further to the shooting at the softball game: The dead guy has previous arrests for Assault with Bodily Injury and Public Intoxication in Oct 2018 and Possession of Marijuana about 10 days before he was killed.

Doesn't necessarily mean he was the aggressor at the softball park, but doesn't suggest great judgment either.

Murderer released on bond murders again. Yeah and they don't know where he is, crime stoppers are paying $5000 for information on how to find him. Probably more than he paid to get out of jail.

Pregnant Jack in the Box employee shot by robber last night on North side of Houston.

Suspect arrested in triple murder.

Has Nazi swastika on his forehead.

I suspect shoot first ask questions later if you have a Nazi guy on your property.

Houston police kill man with revolver who fired at a civilian car and a police car in the Montrose area at 4:30 am.

SWAT sniper ended the standoff with one shot when the man raised his revolver again.

Very little news on this what with the Hurricanes pushing coronavirus to number 2.

Just a customer leaving a convenience store after midnight being shot and killed in SW part of town. No description of shooter or customer. 125.

Teen murdered by faulty light at motel swimming pool. No one will be charged with murder. But murder in my eyes. 126.

Man faces capital murder in death and sexual assault of nine month old daughter. And he has a face tattoo. Disgusting adjectives and nouns can't say on forum.

Really no additional info here, but if KTRK updates a story they typically keep the same link: https://abc13.com/houston-man-accused-o ... l/6397431/
According to the Harris County Sheriff's Office, the baby's autopsy determined she had been sexually assaulted and died due to asphyxiation during the assault.
Whatever one's philosophies or theologies, some acts by humans are base, unadulterated, unalloyed evil. This "father" is 23 years old. He should never see 24.
