The man didn't "pick up a gun when (he was) p*ssed". His actions were not spontaneous or out of control. His actions were deliberate, cool, calculated, and controlled. There was no one else present, and he made no threats,...but did make some promises I hope he keeps.

Some of you don't agree with his method. None of you are privy to the details of what led up to this incident, so basically all of you are just guessing, blustering, and blowing smoke.

All you've done is made my point for me -- CPS did get involved and if you think that idiot dad is now off their radar, you are being naive.

As far as lowering yourself, you already did, the moment you opened your mouth about this issue. But do continue to try to convince yourself that your above me, while you defend what this idiot did. The irony is entertaining, if nothing else.
I hope you have a blissfully myopic day......

If this is him in a cool and controlled state, I'd hate to see him angry and out of control. Video taping shooting something and sending that video as a message to someone, especially someone under your authority, is a threat. The guy is a loon. I feel sorry for his daughter.

What lessons are lost on them both? Sad, really. This man has made of himself the poster child against the 2nd amendment right.
Well, like any other guy, sometimes debates get a little heated on the internet. Your typing can become fury! That's a far cry from pulling out your 1911 and shooting the hell out of it because your so p*ssed. It took a act of anger to a completely different level. Too Far!!

It wasn't just his own daughter. It was her friends too. I would have had a talk with the man if he threatened my kids like that. The only difference being... I KNOW TACTICAL TRICKS!

Videotaping a shooting and sending that video as a message to someone and telling them that this is going to stop is not a threat????

So much for not lowering yourself, eh? Couldn't resist taking another shot, despite your claims of being above it. Not that I don't take my own shots, I do. I just don't cry about it and then do it myself.

Yep, just like laptop daddy, I suspect that you're a "Do as I say, not as I do!" type-- an attitude which is at odds with responsible parenting.

I think he didn't need to use exploding rounds, Federal Hydroshocks would have been suitable..

I also applaud his actions.
People really hate their kids.

Your ignorance is showing,...but what else is new????

The above comment illustrates just how little you know about me or the the dad shooting the computer.

Better be careful or someone will revoke your Internet Psychology Degree.

The real guys always go down in flames choking on what someone else did. Rather than snitch, make a scene, whatever you want to call it...they take the bullet as the sun goes down. They'll ride again and live to tell the tale!
