The Chicago Tribune cluster has the heart wrenching/warming family story from suburban Napierville where they say that:
A pair of fans unable to attend the championship festivities today were longtime Naperville insurance agent Mark W. Steinbrecher, 54 and his son Mark S. Steinbrecher, 20, who have been locked up in the Will County Jail since firing what police termed "a few celebratory rounds" in their backyard after the Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup Wednesday.
The elder Steinbrecher and his son, an Arizona State University history major and lance corporal in the Marines reserves, had traded their Blackhawks T-shirts for jail scrubs when they appeared via video in court Friday.
Apparently they had been drinking.

How is gun control a good idea?
ReplyDeletePlease tell me because every single stat the far left uses has been debunked.
Vermont is one of the most Liberal states in the USA with no gun control at all.
Vermont is so safe that Canadians choose to visit on a daily basis.
Gun control is no different than the LCBO.
Vermont is safer due to the employment levels and relative wealth when compared to the rest of America. Their gun crimes (in VT) if you note are higher in the "domestic/accidental/hunting accident/stupidity" categories, rather than the "break-and-enters/hold-ups/etc." more common elsewhere.
ReplyDeleteThat still doesn't disprove the overall fact that America has over 10 times the gun violence we do - PER CAPITA. That's a HUGE multiple. And they lead the "Western World". Biggest issue is access and "glorification" in the public mainstream. Guns are more than a killing/hunting tool in the US - they are a "tonic", phallic symbol, and national obsession.
