Six dead after US breakfast row
from the BBC:



A US man has killed himself after shooting dead five people, including his wife and stepdaughter, in an argument about his breakfast.

Stanley Neace, 47, went on the killing spree in a trailer park in Jackson, rural Breathitt County, Kentucky.

He chased his wife into a neighbouring trailer where he shot her, her daughter and three witnesses, reports say.

State troopers found Mr Neace dead at the porch of his trailer, slumped over his own gun.

Mr Neace flew into a rage when his wife Sandra, 54, brought him some eggs for breakfast, a relative of the neighbours he killed said.

Mrs Neace's daughter Sandra Strong, 28, was also killed. ..............(more)

1. Tragic.
I know folks here will be tempted to make light of this, but six people are dead.

That's tragic.

4. Some excuse it as 'black humor'
It may be black, but it's certainly not humor. Just sick and twisted fail.

3. The eggs were not the issue
I prefer to call them "the phenomena".

5. My thoughts...
are that they never had a chance against a crazy man... and certainly not a crazy man with a shotgun. Maybe a crazy man with a knife or a club, but never a crazy man with a shotgun. That is all. The gun-defenders can step in now....but I'll just :cry:

7. Only in America.
No wonder the rest of the world thinks we're so fucked up.
