Basketball Foul Leads to Armed Attack
Some people take sports way too seriously. So was the case with Alan Womack, a Pennsylvania man who accused a fellow player of traveling during a basketball game at an LA Fitness center, according to Associated Press. During an argument, Womack threatened to shoot the other player in the head. At that point, the man left the game and the gym. That didn’t satisfy Womack, who followed him out, pulled a weapon, racked the slide and pointed the weapon at the other man. When the defender heard the slide rack, he turned, drew his own Glock from his backpack and shot Womack once. Womack died at the scene. The district attorney ruled it was self-defense.

There needs to be some serious attitude adjustment throughout ALL of society when you see things like that happening. Parents who fail to teach their children better values than that are going to have to be corrected somehow. We can NOT live like this. From the information given at this time, it appears Mr. Womack received the appropriate consequence of his action.

It’s the consequence of growing up blaming all of one’s problems on whitey.

I wonder if a double dribble would not have been as serious.

Who are “they”?
Who are you calling so-called “people”?

followed him out, pulled a weapon, racked the slide and pointed the weapon at the other man LOL. There's so much stupid about that line.
I mean, who the hell does not carry in condition 1?
"Racked the slide"? Seriously??

Over traveling? Heck, any given NBA game could be the OK Corral redux.
