William Pettry had flown from Milwaukee to Jacksonville, Fla., for the Bears game against the Jaguars with his best friend, looking for a good time. He never made it to the football game. His life ended at a bar early Sunday when police said a Jacksonville man, Matthew Hinson, 27, slashed Pettry’s throat “cold-bloodedly” after he talked to Hinson’s wife. Pettry, 42, and a father of three, died at a nearby hospital. Witnesses told police that Hinson “cut the victim and calmly walked out of the establishment,” putting the knife in his pocket. Police stopped Hinson before he pulled out of the bar parking lot in his truck, and he scuffled with officers. “He resisted a little bit,” Jacksonville County Police Lt. Rob Schoonover said at a Monday news conference. Police said Hinson admitted to the killing but wouldn’t say why he did it. Police said the killing was not sports-related. Pettry was a construction worker and “such a huge Bears fan. ... He never got to go to the Bears game, he never got to enjoy it," his cousin, Quincy Asbury Jr., told the Chicago Tribune. In a Facebook post that has since been taken down, Pettry’s wife, Karen, posted that “I'm so numb and I still can not believe it is true. Today my husband William Christopher Pettry (Most of you only know him by Chris) was taken from his family way too early. Some idiot has taken his life. I’m so mad, just don’t understand why, very lost right now. Please hug the ones you love because you never know if tomorrow you will have that chance.” Her profile featured a white construction van covered with painted hand prints and the words "#1 Daddy We Love you!" Police said that at the bar, Hinson saw Pettry and a friend talking to Hinson’s wife and another woman. At one point, police said, Hinson was sitting on a bench with Pettry, then stood up and cut his throat before walking out. |

It's not a weapons problem, it's a mental health problem further exacerbated by easy access to guns. But I guess 10,000 gun deaths a year is an acceptable figure to you. The CDC doesn't agree with you. What about easy access to knives, that is the problem in the article. If you are going to be a gun-control-freak then you have to stick to the narrative. |

You see, a gun was not necessary to take away her husband, her life, or her future from her. You are an insensitive tool. You need to get a grip and focus you attention on what is REALLY wrong. And you owe Karen Pettry the most abject and penitent apology every given by a kool-aid drinking, righteous, better than thou, jerk. You REALLY crossed the line. WTF are you talking about.

"Aggravated assault" is defined as the unlawful attack by one person upon another for the purpose of inflicting severe or aggravated bodily injury and involves the display of—or threat to use—a gun, knife, or other weapon. 26.9 percent were committed with hands, fists, and feet; 20.9 percent were committed with firearms; and 18.7 percent were committed with knives or cutting instruments. The remaining 33.5 percent of aggravated assaults were committed with other weapons. Note that the 806,843 number does not include simple assaults, battery or break-ins. I suspect the inclusion of those would triple or quadruple the number. When I was a younger man with children in the house I never wanted firearms in our house. But now as a "young", 63 year old senior, kids gone and it's just my wife and I ... I have often thought about "what would I do if" type scenarios. News reports of assaults (including the many that you like to repeat here in this newsgroup in your anti-gun crusade) do nothing to convince me to become an anti-gun advocate. To the contrary, they reinforced my decision to get the necessary permits to own and carry a firearm (when appropriate) for personal defense and for that of my wife. To *me*, not doing so is irresponsible. Because your gated community is so very often under attack? Do you wear hoodies while black and wander the neighborhood? People are driven to paranoia by the news but it's more often those who have guns that become the victims. Gonna go to your safe and unlock it when the giant black men burst through your door to pistol whip you and take your wife's precious jewelry? Or will you keep it under your bed or in your nightstand for when someone comes into your home when you're not there to steal your stuff and find your gun? That's how most guns make it to the street. The people I worry about are the crazy assholes in movie theaters, mcdonalds, malls and such that get a hold of caches of weapons and unleash their frustrations against whomever in a random event. Or the recently fired employee who has no life outside of work. Just like this guy who killed his workmates. Got a lot of hostility at the Music Shoppe? Disgruntled employees? Better get a gun. |

It's a tragic loss for Pettry's family and friends of course, but let's put things in perspective. He was from out of town, drinking in a local bar, looking for a good time, and probably flirting with some other guy's wife. There's no excuse for murder of course but if he hadn't been there it wouldn't have happened. |

William Pettry had flown from Milwaukee to Jacksonville, Fla., for the Bears game against the Jaguars with his best friend, looking for a good time. He never made it to the football game. His life ended at a bar early Sunday when police said a Jacksonville man, Matthew Hinson, 27, slashed Pettry’s throat “cold-bloodedly” after he talked to Hinson’s wife. Pettry, 42, and a father of three, died at a nearby hospital. Witnesses told police that Hinson “cut the victim and calmly walked out of the establishment,” putting the knife in his pocket. Police stopped Hinson before he pulled out of the bar parking lot in his truck, and he scuffled with officers. “He resisted a little bit,” Jacksonville County Police Lt. Rob Schoonover said at a Monday news conference. Police said Hinson admitted to the killing but wouldn’t say why he did it. Police said the killing was not sports-related. Pettry was a construction worker and “such a huge Bears fan. ... He never got to go to the Bears game, he never got to enjoy it," his cousin, Quincy Asbury Jr., told the Chicago Tribune. In a Facebook post that has since been taken down, Pettry’s wife, Karen, posted that “I'm so numb and I still can not believe it is true. Today my husband William Christopher Pettry (Most of you only know him by Chris) was taken from his family way too early. Some idiot has taken his life. I’m so mad, just don’t understand why, very lost right now. Please hug the ones you love because you never know if tomorrow you will have that chance.” Her profile featured a white construction van covered with painted hand prints and the words "#1 Daddy We Love you!" Police said that at the bar, Hinson saw Pettry and a friend talking to Hinson’s wife and another woman. At one point, police said, Hinson was sitting on a bench with Pettry, then stood up and cut his throat before walking out. Was it a German knife? If he had a gun, he could have saved his life and saved the FL taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars to incarcerate the idiot. |

We *did* during the winter months in Florida for three winters, but we sold that property back in 2004 and no longer winter there. No, I am not paranoid. I am realistic. My state (MA) has some of, if not *the* toughest gun control laws in the nation that have been further modified and updated to be even more restrictive in recent years. The standard "For all lawful purposes" does not apply here anymore. You must have specific reasons to be issued a LTC class "A" license. The police departments (town and state) have determined that I have sufficient specific reasons. For purposes of responding to you, that's all the information you need. The bulk of your post is a bunch of goofy gibberish, typical of the ultra-left who spray lies and oblique innuendos, including the race card, hoping something will stick to support their ultra-liberal views. No, jps, I do not have visions of "giant black men" floating in my head nor am I concerned with "disgruntled employees" (mainly because I don't have any). I thought you were brighter and more mature. Guess I was wrong. Eisboch |

The recoil, muzzle flip and noise will be totally different between the two rounds and at distance at a target, so will the impact of gravity, so you won't be gaining the shooting skills you want with a 40, 45 or even a 9 round in a defense pistol by running 22s through it. I've tried a few of these combos at the range. They were fun but shooting 22 rounds isn't going to help you become proficient firing larger rounds in the same basic pistol. Wow, you have all the perfect weapons, for the perfect environment... You sound a lot like a recent MIA poster here who always had the perfect tool for the job... :) I'm a federal cop. The Glock was issued to me. I encounter a lot of firearms. I don't think the 22 slide kits are anything more than a gimmick. What's your point? No "point", just a casual observation... |
