FULSHEAR, TX (WPVI) --
A silence continues to hang over a Fort Bend County, Texas, neighborhood after a shooting rocked the usually quiet street.
Fort Bend County Sheriff's deputies say Taylor Sheats, 22, and Madison Sheats, 17, were shot and killed by their mother Christy Sheats, 42, on Friday around 5 p.m. A Fulshear police officer shot and killed Christy at the home on Remson Hollow Lane when she refused to drop her weapon. Only the husband and father, Jason Sheats, was not harmed.

"blaming tools"
"cars kill too"
"good people with guns"
"ban knives"
"outlaws don't care"
"due process is being violated"
or any other Wayne LaPierre bullshit!

This is just another example.
You cannot depend on human nature drunk or not, pissed off or not, or at wits end or not. But one thing you can depend on is the gun to be the most destructive tool used.

People die to protect that right. As evidenced here.
