Prosecutors: This wasn't the first blow-up for Florida theater shooter Curtis Reeves

130. Ya know?

The man was TEXTING during the movie previews.

There are a zillion things someone could do to annoy people and NONE OF THEM WOULD DESERVE TO BE SHOT.

Your analysis that the man texting instigated the situation and should have been more mannerly which ultimately lead to a shooting is incomprehensible to me.I have been irritated a lot and have never had an urge to SHOOT somebody.

Put the blame where it belongs: ON THE SHOOTER!
If he hadn't shot somebody that time, he would have shot somebody later.

You must think the confused girl who wandered up to a house for help deserved to be shot because she was rattling the door. The shooter did not have to go outside. He could have waited on the police. But nooooo! He has to shoot.

It's beyond time we stop focusing just on the behavior of those who cause a problem and start looking hard at those who feel it's okay to shoot somebody about texting or whatever. As long as we make ANY excuse for shooting somebody when life and limb are not in imminent peril, we just add to the righteousness of the shooters and their backers.

The headline should be A man was SHOT AND KILLED for texting. Texting isn't the issue. The issue is those people who feel that guns are the first answer to everything.
