LA man upset over job kills wife, 5 kids, himself (unemployment, deaths, Obama)

[JDubsMom]

OS ANGELES — A man who fatally shot his wife, five young children and himself Tuesday had earlier faxed a note to a TV station claiming the couple had just been fired from their hospital jobs and together planned the killings as a final escape for the whole family. "Why leave the children to a stranger?" Ervin Lupoe wrote, according to KABC-TV.
The station called police after receiving the fax, and a police dispatch center also received a call from a man who stated, "'I just returned home and my whole family's been shot."

Who cares whose economy it is?

I feel for them.

This will be far too common an occurrence in the next couple of years. The downside of "must have it all, must have it now" that so drives the greed in our society. Many are just unable to deal with not having it all, and now.

I know this is bad but why can't depressed people just kill themselves, why take out the whole family? That just bothers me..

While some debate whether Bush or Obama are responsible for these deaths, which neither of them are (although like a cosmic six degrees of separation, arguably they are indirectly, I suppose), I say may that family rest in peace.

That type of political zealotry is downright sick.
