This is really poor justice and a little dope gets you years. Now had the target been a cop or judge what do you think the guy would have got?

Why do you keep bringing up that story about the child seat bike ride that time we put the bike on top of the pick-up truck? It only happened once! Or was it twice...? Anyhow, get home! The bathroom's flooded again and yer ma's ankles are too swollen to clean it up! Spokker!

I don't even understand why that would infuriate someone. When I was a kid my parents took me for bike rides in the child seat all the time. I don’t even understand why that would infuriate someone.

This does not surprise me at all. He's on the FD, he gets at least one free pass. PS, if you think it's cheap to live in the south, realize that you get what you pay for.

It just seems like a bad joke. He shot the guy in the head, in front of his wife and kid. Maybe the cyclist should get to take a shot at him in front of his family, I mean if it's just assault, what's the harm? un-freakin-believable. It just seems like a bad joke.

He tried to shoot him in the damn head. What else can It be but attempted murder. I have to ask about other charges like in possesion of a concealed weapon, There has to be a law about firing a firearm in public. Well If he only gets 2 years in jail, I do hope a large man takes him as his boyfriend. And if he would have killed the cyclist, would it have been man slaughter? That’s screwed up.
