Mother demands answers after son is among victims in series of shootings in 24 hours in Lancaster [More]

I have questions, too, starting with “Mom, where was your husband in that clip?”

The Saga Continues

FAFO

‘I don’t understand why he was shot because there were two men and just him. Why not hold him at gunpoint? Or why not beat him up?’ [More]

You Can’t Have One Without the Other

Mandatory death penalty within twelve months of trial for the murder of any law enforcement officer should be a federal law. [More]
