four-wheel-drive Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Very sad but I do not think that the gun had anything to do with it much as the anti people will clam but if he was that upset that he was going to kill her he would had done it anyway with a knife or some other way as long as there are people in the world this sort of thing will happen.

lxtav Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Its always sad when things like this happen but you cant legislate or stop someone suddenly snapping no matter how hard you try. All you can do is put systems in place to try and reduce how often it happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sco77w Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 I am in a state of shock a young lad that I would be very frienly with has just shot is girlfriend and her sister..The sister is dead and the other girl is critical..He only got his FAC 2 weeks ago..... It makes you wonder if he had planned this and applied for his FAC specifically to do what he did. You just don't know what's going through peoples heads. I feel for both families involved.

Big Marty Posted May 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Sorry to here fellow ,I know this is prob the time but I'm curious wot was the weapon he used don't think I'm sick just wondering No don't think that at all his brother said he had bought a Berreta semi Auto that's all I know. He had asked me last week if I could get him into a Duck shooting club this year, So I don't think this was a planned thing. Could be wrong.

ordnance Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Sad i hope the other girl recovers. Unfortunately a lot of these incidents seam to happen after relationship breakups, time will tell what happened in this case. It reminds me of an accident a few months ago in a hairdressers in dungannon a guy shot himself dead in front of his girlfriend after a relationship breakup.

It reminds me of an accident a few months ago in a hairdressers in dungannon a guy shot himself dead in front of his girlfriend after a relationship breakup. That's right I remember that,This lad todays mother said that he was very hot headed and for that reason she went to the police when she heard he was applying for A Gun and told them she didn't think he was right for a permit, The rest is history. I knew his temper wasn't great but didn't think who could do this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
