A game of beer pong taken too seriously ended with the death of a 19-year-old college student in Texas, a news site reported.
Ronald McNeil, 39, is currently being held in Brazos County Jail on charges of murder, deadly conduct for discharge of a firearm and two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
McNeil crashed the graduation party of Texas A&M student Landon Duke along with some friends, Duke told The Eagle in College Station. One of McNeil’s friends got in an argument with one of Duke’s friends over beer pong rules around 1 a.m. on May 3 in the house’s garage.
A few punches were thrown and McNeil and his friends were asked to leave, Duke said.
"We're a bunch of college kids. We didn't think anything was really going to happen. Just to be safe, we closed the garage door anyway," Duke said in a recent phone interview with the news site.
Duke was gearing up to play a game of beer pong with Lacie LaRose, 19, he said. LaRose went outside to get a few beers for the game and that’s when McNeil came back and fired off 14 rounds.
McNeil told police that he accidentally fired while running back up to the house. He told investigators he was just trying to scare the kids at the party with his .40-caliber Glock pistol.

Oh wait...never mind.
Prayers for this beautiful young woman and her loved ones.
Ronald McNeil is a poor non-cursive reading Black man who only wanted the friendship of a few privileged whites. When he was rejected and no doubt called racist names, it reminded him of his days as a slave, so he became emotionally destroyed. Feeling that he had no other way to stop the hurting, he retrieved a gun and attempted to commit suicide.
Young Ronald, a gental man of good heart, had never been interested in guns and he had been too poor to ever buy one. The gun he used was something he had recently found discarded in a gas station restroom, so he wasn’t familiar with it’s use.
Feeling that he had no other alternative, poor Ronald tried to shoot himself in the head 14 separate times, but he missed. Apparently, a white girl racist was accidentally hit, she bled a lot and she died.
“Ronald McNeil, 39”
Is it just me or do these incidents seem to be occuring with older and older people? There is surely a trend of a failure to mature in many folks today.

“Neal Boortz, Boo Got Shot”
Money quote from The Eagle:
“McNeil told officers he was running toward the crowd when the first round accidently went off, police said. According to the report, McNeil said he continued running toward the crowd of people into the backyard, where his finger accidentally pulled the trigger several times. One of the bullets went into a residence on San Saba, behind the home, police noted in the report.”
I hate it when that happens.
“...Prayers for this beautiful young woman and her loved ones.”

Prayers up here for the young woman and her family.
The sad thing is that the perp will be a STAR in prison because he snuffed the life from a young white woman before she could move ahead in her life and have children of her own.
Yes, just a “soldier” unjustly imprisoned for his fight against the Cracker oppressors./sarc
Had the substance involved been not alcohol but pot, the Reefer Madness idiots would count this in their tallies of pot taking lives.
