Police said that two couples began arguing before a showing of "Lone Survivor" over one couple's text messaging. A male suspect, whose identity has not yet been released, became angry and took out a gun and shot the other couple, according to the Pasco County Sheriff's office. "The victim was on his cellphone, he was texting. We believe he was making some kind of noise. This noise led to an altercation," Sheriff Chris Nocco said, according to ABC News affiliate WFTS. "During that altercation, the suspect decided to pull out a .380 and he shoots the victim." The sheriff's office said in a statement that an unnamed "good Samaritan" helped detain the suspect until police arrived. The two victims were airlifted to Tampa General Hospital, where the man was pronounced dead and the woman is being treated for non-life threatening injuries, according to police. The shooting occurred around 1:30 p.m. today at the Cobb Grove 16 Theater in Wesley Chapel, Fla., north of Tampa. Police noted that the shooter and victims did not appear to know one another. http://tinyurl.com/obwfh6b The shooting suspect is in police custody. Well, that didn't take long. So much for the new, improved rec.boats. All my restraint didn't help a bit, did it? Do we have to give him yet another chance? Perhaps you should take charge and publish a list of what topics are allowed here and what topics are not. I thought there was general agreement to avoid personal name-calling here, and to avoid initiating partisan political discussions. The post I put up is neither personal nor partisan political. It's fine with me if you want this newsgroup to avoid discussions about firearms and other apparently volatile subjects. List away. You're a big boy. You should be able to figure out what it is about your postings that make them so offensive to many, if not most of the posters who read rec.boats. It's not so much the topics as what you do with them. I'm about ready to be not so nice to you if you haven't figured it out yet. |

Who is going to be the one to mess it up first? That's easy, the ones who acknowledge, answer, and repost the trolls As long as we respond to the troll posts, they will continue. If we all refused to answer but only decent posts, made with proper intent, the appeal would be gone for the trolls and the group would be right back the way it was a couple weeks ago, overnight.... It only takes one to say "well, he isn't trolling me so it's ok", and it all falls apart... but you know all that |

You are trying to establish who should respond to whom and if one of the people involved happens to be disagreeable with you it's not ok according to your "rules". Harry and I have demonstrated that you can communicate and often disagree without being disrespectful. You seem to feel that I therefore am enabling any problems you may have with communicating with him. I don't think it's your call to decide who can respond to who. Apparently you think otherwise. |
