How many on the Left will celebrate this hero’s death?

I remember that very well. He was a sharpshooter from behind the pharmacy window. I was thinking even then, this might be too much stress for an 80 year old man. Even a positive event can be stressful to the elderly person, if it rips up their usual days routine.
My Dad was that way in his 80’s.

They should charge the robber(s) with murder. Clearly the stress from that event led to the owner’s stroke and death.

The perps' next court date is February 23:

One player short of an NBA team.

Too bad he didn’t blow Rasheed’s low-IQ head off.
