There are just not enough facts in the article to reply to it. And the facts are not very thorough. His wife was served with process papers. Was that the first time Gary Knew they were coming. Certainly a police officer could have interviewed him before hand and then could have perhaps prevented the confrontation. We just don't know enough from the article which was basically touchy feely.

True enough..
I should have checked to see if a follow up article ever appeared with more facts.

This is a very old article. 1999 - 2000 maybe?

Worse than no facts. What we have here is an opinion columnist, writing months after the fact, about an event which was not local to him, apparently relying on media reports to provide the facts. Based on his description of the shooting (Delmar Dunn's condition is not even resolved, though it would certainly be known by the time Suprynowicz got hold of the story).

All this story really is, is an even on which Vin Suprynowicz figures he can use to further his own agenda. Such articles and opinion pieces cannot be trusted as factual.

I agree with your statement but - from the article - this stands out -

Another area resident, who didn't want to be identified, told the visiting newsmen, "Most people are understanding why Garry Watson was upset. They are wishing he didn't do it, but they are understanding why he did it."

I lived in Chula Vista from 79-82. About a mile or so down from where I lived, some old guy shot and killed a neighbors dog. Why? He had some sort of surgery and needed rest. The dog continuously barked and he asked the neighbor several times to muzzle his pet. The neighbor dissed him and the old guy solved it his way.

Most people wished it did not have to come to violence but most understand why it does. People get pushed and after awhile they push back. The results are the deaths of poor working stiffs.

People are prohibited to protest against abortion clinics. People see animals vandalize the Capitol steps. People cannot have political speech 60 days before a election. People have their property taken from them by an uncaring government solely for higher tax revenue. When will it stop?

I finished reading Steyn's America Alone and he said that what differed United 93 from the other 3 planes, is that the passengers of United 93 decided as a group to disobey Governmnet regulations and do something. What happened on 9/11 and Katrina should have told people that the government cannot protect or take care of you.
