You are always at the back though...

It is sad what living next to motorcyclists does to some people. I am so glad I don't live next to a motorcyclist.

I dont think he even knew we have bikes here, the shooter wasn't a resident.

They have two rather large barking dogs next door, theres a little white fucker over the back fence which comes down and winds the others up, at times thats enough to drive us to drink. The thought has crossed my mind once or twice....

Na not really, im a keeper of the peace....

I have a street full of cop cars at the moment, and crime tape along the front of the house next door. Already had my first visit from the media.

What a friggen horrible thing, a young couple with a baby girl that has just started walking. Her mother is dead and her father in custody. I feel sick!

I am glad it is not you, I would miss you!

Heard it on the news and thought the size of your town there would have been a good chance that you might have known them,never thought next door .

I am deep sorry ta hear that Mum. The poor child and her family. Hope you are holding out too.
I am also very upset that some on here have taken this thread as an opportunity to make cheap tasteless remarks (see PD). Having a shooting next door would be no joking matter. Mum and Maha need our support in helping to deal with this and not personal attacks. The poor family of the child would be horrified to know how some here have used their lost.

Some call it black humour, to get past the horror of it all... without going into PD for a gawk, what i have seen is just black humour...

Just shows you there's a lot of wackos out there in our communities capable of this sort of shit..

Pfft. The stuff in PD actually has nothing to do with this shooting.

It's just a snippet from a long-running feud between middle-aged women (and the usual posse of frighteningly horrid faux-lesbians that shrieks in to back up one side or the other) which nobody has any idea about the real reasons for.

Anyhow, in response to the red rep from one of them implying that I'm a misogynist for suggesting that the shooter must've been pissed off, er...

... well, are you trying to say he wasn't pissed off?
