    Default Shooting in Jim Thorpe

    http://www.mcall.com/news/local/all-...,7174542.story

    That was my Dad that got shot He's the homeowner.

    He's going to be OK though; I just got back from LVH.

    I posted this because I turned on the TV news and the local station had the story completely backwards. I don't want to elaborate on what happened but it seriously fucking pisses me off that these news channels will put out a story with absolutely no intent of getting it right. At least the newspaper version (see link) kept it ambiguous.

    Thanks.

    I've calmed down a little now. Alcohol is good for that...

    Anyway, I know this is going to be discussed and I just didn't want people going off on some BS story they saw on the TV news.

    Best wishes for a full and speedy recovery! Was Dad at least able to get in some licks or shots of his own ??
