The Huntsville Police Department on Thursday identified the two people killed in the Wednesday night shooting as IHOP employee Roy Brown and customer Roderick Turner. Brown was 56. Turner was 25.
In a statement, police said Turner was picking up a carryout order and became “disruptive and loud regarding the service at the business.”
After a confrontation, police said Turner pulled a handgun and started firing at employees, striking Brown and another worker. Police said the wounded employee “then pulled a handgun and shot the customer-shooter in self-defense of others.” |

Yet another case where someone fell through a crack; Turner had been arrested for assault & battery and no - billed by a grand jury TWICE. Ignored by the legal system, twice Turner had severe anger control issues and should have been disqualified from carrying firearms.
He SHOULD have been serving time for felony assault.
And we are told we need to give up our guns.
Oh.....the son of the manager was shot in the arm....and responded by pulling HIS OWN GUN and shooting Turner.
So ended this version of "The Turner Diaries." ;) |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
