A Las Vegas mother of four would still be alive today if she had simply returned home, gone inside, and called the police after a road rage incident last week.
Instead, after an encounter with an angry driver, Tammy Meyers got her adult son—and his handgun—and went hunting for the driver of a vehicle who had left his car to yell at her. The man had stopped his car in the road ahead of Meyers and yelled at her because Meyers’ teen-aged daughter had reached over and honked the horn at the man because she didn’t like how he was driving.
Angry at being yelled at by this driver, Meyers went looking for trouble, and found it. She just didn’t figure on it following her back home.

There is only room for one driver at a time. The teenage daughter had no business honking the horn.
Sounds like the white trash family took it on the chin.
Go looking for trouble — be sure to shoot the trouble first.
Preferably in the back.
” Not quite as simple as first reported. “
Now I know why the earlier articles were so confusing ...
Yeah. At first I thought the daughter was the one driving and shot. Journalism at it’s best.
Son says he would do it again. Lots and lots of crazy to go around here.
2 birds of a feather found each other. WOW.
—more details got on the local Vegas news this am, too—
After reading the article there are too many unanswered questions. I don’t think the whole story is out there yet. I don’t trust the kids account as yet.
Let the cops give them a good interrogation and the truth may come out.
there is no good guy here...
this woman and her family sound a bit on the edgy side but that didn't mean she was deserving to be gunned down......
there is some statistic going around showing that people that suffer a gun shot wound are 50% more prone to either getting shot AGAIN in the future, or shooting someone else in the future, or having had shot someone in the past....
I believe in gun ownership but there has to come some responsibility on people's part to never use guns for such frivolous reasons....
now, there may be a darker underbelly to this story and we're only reading one end of it....who knows...it could have been a drug deal etc gone wrong...
Standoff with suspect and police is going on right now, Thursday afternoon per Fox News
