What the article says is they disagreed on guns and argued about Trump. They went into his room to look at his 9mm glock and according to him the gun went of and he didn’t realize his finger was on the trigger. He relapsed to alcohol and was drunk at the time.

He said: “As I lifted the gun to show her I suddenly heard a loud bang. I did not understand what had happened. Lucy immediately fell.”

Harrison said he could not recall whether his finger was on the trigger.

Sunk-cost fallacy.

Trumpers don’t want to admit to themselves or each other that they’ve been duped, so they just keep digging their hole deeper.

They were all cleaning their guns at the time.

A jury of peers

WHAT THE FUCK! THE GRANDJURY REFUSE TO INDICT?

Grand jury: We protect one of our own.

After they have witnesses of him telling her he didn’t care if she got raped!

Texas, I swear to God. I am from there, all of my family is there. My daughters adore their cousins and beg to move there. Absolutely not.

My MAGA Dad raised his hand like he was going to hit me at Christmas during a political discussion. I was shocked. He is old and feeble, so I told him I would hit him back.

This is next level disturbing.

Texas. Not even once.

And risk breaking a branch? There’s a perfectly good gun right there!

Accidentally robbed a bank

Accidentally killed a few politicians

Accidentally speared pedophile cultists

Y’all Qaeda and the most excellent Yee-hawd.

It really depends on the part. Austin and San Antonio are very art-focused, moderate/liberal cities in some of the most beautiful areas of the country, but everywhere in America has rural populations of utterly deranged hog-people.

A place like Dallas you aren’t as likely to get shot, but you are more likely to face weird, old-money racism and discrimination.

The problem with texas is it has some of the most vast areas of rural population, as the entire state is just this flat sprawl of land with isolated communities full of poor drug addicts who just stare at the flatness of it all before going insane.

I know two very excellent people from Texas. They both had the sense to move abroad. I keep ripping on them because “You forgot about the Alamo, didn’t you?!”

As a Liberal Texan, there are a lot of great, progressive places in Texas. Generalizing a whole fucking state is pretty shitty. You realize how many millions of people live here?

Yes, our governor sucks ass. The state is jerrymandered into Republican control. However, as someone who has travelled and lived in over two dozen states in the US, I can tell you I’ve seen some of the biggest Trumpers in rural “blue states” like California.

Don’t blanket assume everyone is a gun toting, Trump voting Republican just because a state OVERALL votes a certain way.

Texas has a lot more guns than Florida, but yes both are awful

it’s a shame cause the food is sinfully out in the lone star state

Unless you’re one of the billionaires fleeing the billionaire tax in California, in which case yes go to Texas, it’s way safer then the crime ridden California cities. You don’t even need to bring your body guards.

Trump supporters are not good people

This is how I know he murdered his own daughter.

I’ve been thinking about that for a few minutes now. Does it mean he considers them property which loose value by being raped?

That reply just doesn’t make sense to me.

Yeah I was about to post the same shit. That is disgusting that is his fuckin daughter for fuck sake.

Texas should be nuked without question. That state is not worth saving after they said they wouldn’t indicate him.

Fuckin magats are willing to let their children get raped for the pedo god king trump.

In order for it to be manslaughter you’d have to consider the victim a person.

Couldn’t even get a grand jury indictment. No doubt the local yokels closed ranks. Made up some nonsense about it being an accident.

It’s perfectly on brand for the USA, really. This uppity woman didn’t listen to the man of the house, so he had to wave his gun around to remind her of her place. He was so distraught at his authority being questioned that his gun accidentally went off while it was pointed at his daughter. The guy feels bad, so it’s OK. Plus, as he said himself,

Kris Harrison had replied that he had two other daughters who lived with him so it [his daughter being sexually assaulted] would not upset him that much.

Man shoots daughter dead and everyone’s just okay with it because she didn’t like Trump?!

It’s like South Asian “honor” murders where women are killed for even the most trivial matters.

This has been going on forever, all Trumpism did was give it a shape so that it could make the news.

It also goes on everywhere in the world, all the time.

Our species is not what you think it is, and I am sad for every thinking, feeling person who thinks they know how bad the situation is, but hasn’t yet had that moment where it all sinks.

They don’t give a shit about words or truth, they just yell and invent when they don’t get their way until everyone does what they want because they are the smart ones who know better, which is why they need to kill everyone who doesn’t agree with them and say it’s because that’s what we want

Because they don’t care about evidence or facts unless it fits into their narrative.

You can point to posts advocating for violence or censorship coming from their ilk and they’ll just attribute it back to the other side because “we wouldn’t need to if they didn’t do it to us first.” It’s just the abuser justification, “look at what you made me do”.

Or they will just outright deny reality, dismissing opposing evidence as conspiracies, exaggerated, or misunderstood. Did Elon really do a Nazi salute? “No, no. He was just sending his heart out to Americans!”

And when there’s overwhelming evidence that they can’t do mental gymnastics around? They shut down the conversation. They stop talking about it. They ignore it. They bury it. Out of sight, out of mind.

When someone is indoctrinated into that way of thinking and makes their politics a part of their personality, you are not going to beat them at their own game. Their sense of identity is tied to their beliefs and their ego will not let them accept anything that goes against those beliefs. They need to be deprogrammed.

I practice trigger discipline with fucking nerf blasters

“Don’t aim a gun at anything you don’t want to destroy”

Yeah, if you are going to checks notes point your gun at your daughter, at least have some goddamn checks notes trigger discipline!

Yeah, there is perhaps no pistol more known for unequivocally not firing unless the trigger is fully pressed from the center. There are in fact three different independent safeties in a glock. Man murdered his daughter, I do not accept complete ignorance of firearm use as a defense for someone who owns a gun and chose to pull out a loaded weapon and point it at someone.

In religiously paternalistic Texas, killing one’s own children is a God-given biblical right.

I have heard it said that the prosecution has enormous power over what grand juries get to hear, to such an extent that grand jury results are mostly just a way of formalizing what the prosecutor has already decided. If the state wants an indictment, the state pretty much always gets one.
