My son-in-laws Aunt and Grandfather were murdered today. Some guy walked into the house, shot the Aunt in the head while she slept, and then shot the Grandfather when he came home from taking his wife to work.



To make matters worse, my pot dealer said that he was not gonna be able to get any more weed till after the new year.


GOD FUCKING DAMN IT

The way that the 4 major news stations in Arkansas (4, 7, 11 and 16) handled the murder of Jerry Harris and his daughter, of Sheridan, was extremely offensive. On Dec 3 some madman walked into Jerry's house and shot his daughter and Mr Harris on his way out of the house.


A sister/Aunt and a father/grandfather was just murdered
and you descended upon them like a bunch of starving vultures.


It's chaotic enough with just the police and ambulances there
but you just HAD to drag your cameras to the event for money.


DISGUSTING


This was a VERY traumatic event for the family.
This would be a very traumatic event for ANY family.


Remember when Anne Pressly from Channel 7 was murdered
I bet you people did the same thing to her family


The Harris family even asked you to leave the area
All you did was move to a neighbors house that was on vacation
I'm seriously considering convincing him to file trespassing complaints against all of you when he gets back from vacation.
You were tresspassing on personal property with no permission to be thereJust to try and get the story on the news first


DISGUSTING I TELL YOU


I find your sending news vans to their house, on that day to be offensive in a most extreme manner. The whole thing is a disgusting way to 'get the scoop on the other guy'. How the family feels be damned, we need a story for better ratings.


Reminds me of an 80's song

'The bubble headed bleach blond
will tell you about the plane crash
with a gleam in her eye'


Did you really have to interrupt a family during the MIDDLE of the crisis?
Could a simple phone call for some basic information been enough for that day?
Couldn't you wait at least one day before descending on this poor family
like a bunch of leeches looking for a drop of blood to suck on?


DISGUSTING I TELL YOU ...... EXTREMELY DISGUSTING


I was never a fan of TV and I can assure you each time I hear a story like this I watch less and less. You people put on your 'reporter face' and harass people in the middle of a huge crisis. You disgust me and I will be sure to tell everyone I know just how repulsive you all acted that day.


P.S
To all my friends that got a BCC of this. Please pass this on.
People need to realize that reporting a story like this
while its happening is the WORST kind of reporting.

Reality TV recently got even more retarded. Here's some nice commentary on "Bridalplasty."

To be honest.

The only time I ever look for something on TV is when my wife is using the computer. Which isn't often. Even then its some educational program. If they are stuck in Bubba mode, I turn it over to a music channel.

There are very few TV shows that I ever watch, and that's because my wife is watching it, while I surf the net (Bones and Law and Order are the only two I can think of). Sometimes I have to put the headphones on due to the absolute garbage that's on the TV that she watches.

If the net goes down then I'm watching one of the two above mentioned shows or Star Trek TNG.

But I can assure you that I watch less than 2 hours of TV a week, of my choosing. Probably closer to 1 hour really.

I feel that most TV shows, make the people that watch them, stupid somehow.

shit from storage units.

I never said I watched the show. I'm just saying its a pretty standard practice for owners of storage units to sell off delinquent units to recoup the loss of income and clean the unit out to rent to other people who will pay for it.

It's also standard practice for people to buy the contents with OR without looking inside. They usually only have to pay the back payments of the original renter of the unit, which can amount to as little as a few hundred bucks.

When the police came to the house to arrest the boy.
The father passed out, the mother fell to the floor in a screaming fit

The boy just laughed as they handcuffed him, then looked over at his grandmother and laughed at her on the way out the door.

If I was a member of the family, I'd would probably be in handcuffs right behind him.  I woulda beat the shit outta that kid when he started laughin.  That ain't cool.  That probably hurt his grandmother more than he could ever imagine.  Been married to her husband for however many years then have to deal with some shit like that.

How old was the kid again?  Didn't you say he was a teenager?

True, but there are lots of kids like that who are just reckless and would not actually ever want to hurt anyone. Some times shit like this just happens for no apparent reason, and I guess thats what makes it even harder to cope with.

Had the boy been disciplined in any way throughout his life, this would have never happened IMHO

He is 15.

Rather than go to the funeral, he took his fathers truck for a 'joy ride' and totaled it as well.

And yea he has had a history of emotional/mental issues, that I blame on his parents for not making him mind. Everyone has to learn to suffer the consequences of their actions. Let your kids do what they want, with no restrictions/limitations, and you end up with a cold blooded murderer.

I put full blame for this tragedy on the parents shoulders.
