Goalflinger........how can you even think the woman "was in any way contributory to his actions?" You MUST be kidding. NO MATTER what anyone does, it does not give ANYONE thr right to kill someone.

There is NEVER any good excuse for physical violence. What we don't know is, was she in any way contributory to his actions? He does not sound like a man who would just pick up a gun and kill someone without being provoked in some major way..and to what extent? Again, not excusing what happened.

monami - my opinion is that the majority of the fault is with the shooter, and, (I am specualating) that there is a portion of the fault with the deceased.

Apparently you fail to see any copability with the deceased, and blame the shooter 100%.

News Flash: the world is not black and white.

computer trainer: I realize abuse goes both ways - no question. In this case, the man shot the woman. I wasn't speculating; I was relying on the information published by law enforcement.

dukefanv12 - apparently you are blaming the victim

Please let the public know if a fund is being set up for these 3 children.

If I had had my heart's desire I would have gone to Holly Springs and held those 3 precious angels in my arms all night long. I would have cried with them and held them as long as they wanted me too. I could not imagine the torture this grandmother and the rest of this family is going through. Not being able to have a child of my own - this situation just cuts even deeper to my soul Praying deeply for this whole family.

Please let's remember 3 little victims who are now going into a not-so happy Christmas season, which will now forever be tainted for them. :(

"Actually, JAT, the cycle of domestic violence usually begins after the marriage. Things start out all lovely, then when he "has her" he starts to attempt the controlling and abusive behavior. It's all part of the cycle. And the more he abuses, the more it erodes the spouse's self worth, thus exacerbating the cycle, which is quite complex. But I agree, if he hits you once, he will do it again."

Sadly, the cycle often begins before marriage, ranging from subtle to overt signs.

"Are you having the audacity to blame the victim here?!"

Are you having the audacity to be judge, jury and executioner, before the body is cold? Are you have the audacity to tell me there isn't three sides to this story?

We can do all the reading we want, but it can't replace the (your) lack of common sense.

A Man protects those who are weaker and smaller - and just about everything is.

It's easy to lash out, destroy, kill. It's hard to walk away, esp when your ego is involved, but the real warrior is one who has conquered him/herself.
