Gangbanger was a felon too. When the ATF poured through the records, other felons shot there as well. This with the other things mentioned made S&W rethink the benefit of running the range.

This is exactly the kind of crap that leads to range shutdowns and even more restrictive gun laws, especially in nanny states states like this.
If he was determined to punch his own ticket, there were hundreds of other ways to do it, but now many others will suffer the repercussions of his act.
I'll bet Linksy is drafting some new BS legislation right now.

Isn't this what got the worcester shooting range shut down years ago? Woman goes in, rents gun, blows brains out.

As you should. A mentally ill individual might spend years or a lifetime contemplating their demise but don't want to burden family with the end result. In the final act, nothing matters any more. The suffering is finally over.
I don't profess to know what went through this guy's mind and jokingly added nothing to the subject at hand. I suspect that he will eventually kill himself anyway, if nothing more than an excuse to escape the pain he will endure from his injuries.
-Proud to be dad every day, a licensed plumber most days, and wish I was a shoemaker on others.
My initial response was that I had no sympathy for someone who brings other unrelated people into it. Im sure if your son had been at the range with you and witness someone commit such an act, youd see it differently.
Its absolutely selfish to run into an establishment and subject others to your death.
I remain unmoved, zero sympathy.
You don't get it. God bless you - I hope you never do.
unfortunately, same shit happened in Millbury at Boston Gun Range...sucks

so you saw the wannabe thugs license and knew they were from lawrence? I see alot of wannabe thugs in salem NH so.........
Unless this is something else that is going way over my head, no I dont.
If youre referring to knowing someone very well who has committed suicide; youre sadly mistaken. But no one I know did it in front of anyone like that. ODs and hangings. But little Johnny down the street never had to see it. Neither did anyone who wasnt close.
Suicides are never an easy subject. It's a severely trouble soul who adamantly sees no solution to suffering. But to scar others... not fair. Albeit it hurts the family, colleagues, enployees, friends it shouldnt go beyond those groups.
Maybe they were shooting sideways.

Its the family's that pay the real price here. I had a cousin that killed himself a while back and it devastated the family. He's gone, but the mother and father, brothers and sister still live with it.
This. Me and my wife were just there two Sundays ago with my brother and his wife. No muzzle sweeping idiots that day so it was a fun time. Sucks to here something like this happen at a place you could have been at.
Just to clarify MFL's policy is :
ONLY if you are alone AND plan to rent our firearms, you will need to present a certificate showing you have completed a course or have a LTC/CCW from a state that requires a course completion prior to certification.. If you bring a friend with you to the range, these restrictions do not apply.
So, you don't need an LTC, but you must have taken the safety course. This helped while I was waiting for my LTC to come in (almost a year)
Really sucks this kind of stuff has to happen, I don't have much to say about those that take their own life other than it is cowards way ( some medical reasons excluded) if your going to do that at least have some thought as to the impact it will have and don't use it as a last statement cause it won't work IMHO, most won't care that you coped out, and those that do are left with a weak tool to do anything but make some noise for the poor person that took their life cause they had a hard time dealing with it.
I can only hope the state won't use this for yet another set of guns laws or rules Etc.
Thank you and have a wonderful night

Me too. Milford, CT, down by the river where the sand and cement factory was. Some A-hole cop was down there and shot over the dunes, over the river and into Stratford. Put a bullet into a car. No one was ever allowed back down there. We used to go crazy with M60's in those pits in the early 1980's. The world has changed.
Thread subject should be changed to

Everyone is given a great gift with their life. Throwing away your life is throwing the finger in the face of everything good we've been given and every good thing that's been done for you, and saying that you don't even care enough to stick around to try and make anything better for you or anyone else. It's the coward's way out. No sympathy for that. Maybe for the families.
