Wow. Time out. Wait. Man shoots guy who killed his kids VIA DUI and he's not guilty?

[QUOTE=DwnShft2Xcelr8]Making irresponsible decisions and following through on them doesn't make someone a terrible father? He has/had an infant just born days ago and decides to drive after drinking. That's an irresponsible decision if I've ever heard of one.
Even if he didn't kill these boys, he could've just as easily killed someone else. God forbid he decided to take his newborn for a drive after drinking. He could have also ended up in jail if he had been caught driving by cops.
He should've known better. He had a newborn at home to take care of. Now that little girl is growing up without her biological father in her life. Little baby probably got lucky.[/QUOTE]

Likewise another, non-impaired driver could have easily hit people pushing a car down a dark road.

Was the Dad even aware that he was under the influence? Say the driver isn't impaired...do you still justify the murder? Is the difference based solely on the driver's blood alcohol level to you?

There are no heroes in this... It just sucks from top to bottom

[I]"a murder weapon was never found, gun residue was not found on Barajas

Yes. Solely on alcohol level.

Man who murdered the guy that kidnapped and raped his son. The murder was caught on tape, but a court of law let him off too.

Now THIS... I can dig it

[QUOTE=~primetime~]If I remember correctly he had his two sons pushing his car at like 3AM on a dark rural road and on a weekend night on top of that.

Horrible choice... [b]Every driver is drunk at that hour,[/b] in fact wouldn't be surprised if he was... He then walked all the way home to get his gun and came back where the driver was trying to save the boys he hit.... He then unloaded on him.[/QUOTE]

Calls me an idiot while making a blatantly ignorant and stupid comment himself. If this were the case, I think cops' jobs would be much easier. Just wait to bust all cars driven at that hour.
If you read my post, I said this father potentially could've driven with the infant in the car one day while being drunk. That little girl probably got a new chance at life by not having a drunk for a father.

You know your avy is a drunk icon right?

It is very unlikely that girl will be better off without a dad

Barney is a cartoon character, not a real person driving drunk and ruining families.

Alas, I digress. You're likely right. Even a drunk of a father is better than no father. My comment was extreme and I admit it was unnecessary.

Oops El Jeffe is here I better edit this post.

I bet you have to downshift to accelerate because your ricer has no torque, am I right? :D

thats pretty messed up. hard to believe he was not convicted.

Damn texas is awesome. If obama was from texas russia would be one of the states of usa.

I had no idea the father had his two boys hell him push the car down a dark road in the middle of the night. He's no hero, that's for sure. They could have easily been hit by a sober driver.

[QUOTE=~primetime~]Manslaughter is an accident, murder is premeditated[/QUOTE]


That's not true. Well, not always.

You can get manslaughter by intentionally killing someone

[QUOTE=red1]terrible post. driving drunk doesnt necessarily make someone a shitty father[/QUOTE]

:biggums: yeah but killing two kids does.

If ever there was a case where I could understand a temporary insanity defense, this is it. This man just saw both his children killed by a drunk moron, who wouldn't snap at a time like that ?

I don't think there was anything morally wrong with what he did, and I don't see him as a danger to society, so he should be found innocent.
