I think the man knows he’s not perfect and judging from his comments, knows that this incident may affect him as well.

What a terrific approach. He anticipated every possible scenario; from the press, interviews to reality shows.

Kudos to this family! Great example of what families used to be and should still be.

(what a great sense of humor too!)

Judging from the high-end finish, and extended mag plate I’d say his 1911 is most likely one of the newer configurations along the lines of a 1991 series 70 or 80 with the firing pin disconnect.

Probably just as safe as any other modern handgun in a similar “condition.”

I think ‘goldi’ is upset because ‘goldi’ is either a teenager herself or barely out of her teens. jmho of course but those posts have the tone of a young’un.

“I think the clincher that probably provoked gunfire was when she declared she couldn’t wait until they were too old to wipe their own asses.”

I’ve used the reverse of that on my kids when they were in their teens. They’d balk on doing something to help and I’d pull the old “I used to wipe your @ass when you couldn’t so please give me a break”!

Yeah, I know. So you can dish it out but you can’t take it right?

Dish what out? Just asking the obvious question.

I linked the video to my Facebook page...with a thinly veiled message to my own teen daughter...letting her know that cellphones aren’t bulletproof, either. :-)

Well, if you had read all the FB entries that DouglasKC posted, you’d know he really wasn’t looking for 15 minutes of fame. He understood this thing had gone viral and wanted an accurate account of events and his thoughts on record, so he is making these FB posts. Which, given what we know about the general quality of media accounts in general as observant FReepers, is an eminently sensible thing for him to do. So, again, kudos to him.

I suggest we split the country down the middle and everyone who called CPS can move to one side and everyone who gave a standing O move to the other. But then again, we already have one 3rd world country on our border.

My niece works in the entertainment industry. I wonder if she would be interested in developing another reality show about a dysfunctional family...maybe some good can come out of this afterall.

Yep, sounds like either a typical DUer or KOS-kid.

If a tenth of your energy actually read the article, you would know he already turned down offers from broadcasters.

Not everyone is an attention whore.

Why do liberals always project?

By destroying a valuable laptop. Could have achieved the same lesson by contributing it to a school or charity.

Why? Schools and charities haven't learned the value of a dollar yet.

A month or two? The idea was to permanently remove it. He could have sold it or given it away, but this sent the right message.

Q: Why did you decide to reprimand your daughter over a public medium like YouTube?

I supposed it was because she chose to publicly reprimand HIM in the first place.

Oh, blow it out your butt.

What an elegant linguistic style! What a sophisticated capacity for reasoned debate! What an elegant defense of a philosophic position, founded, as it no doubt is, in deep and broad experience with child psychology. See how she cites her own childrearing tribulations and successes, how she refers to the scholarly literature of psychology, how she enlists the doctrines of faith to advance her views. I am silenced by such erudition, Netmilsmom; how 'bout you?
