Daughter kills her mother, then father kills the daughter.

[url=http://www.cnn.com/2013/09/29/us/pennsylvania-estranged-daughter-murder/index.html?hpt=us_c2#cnn-disqus-area]talk about a family gone wrong[/url] This is horrible. I think the dad reacted the right way, his wife and son were killed and by his own daughter. Would you fire a shot at your kid if they come in your house and start shooting? Give your thoughts.

  • Hmm. Murder is -blam!-ed up no matter the reason. I'm not really questioning whether I believe the daughter is a bitch, because I do. However, what jumps out at me is that bit about the family not seeing her for over 20 years and then she returns to attempt to kill them all in cold blood on some seemingly random day. That's really weird to me. The only reasons I can see her doing this are either she's bat shit crazy, and in that case I definitely feel horrible for this man. Or there was some sort of abuse that has festered over the last 2 decades, and in this case, I'm not sure if I feel horrible for anyone. Of course, murdering people isn't the answer to abuse, and I'm not saying that abusers deserve death in every case, but I won't deny that my empathy would definitely take a hit if the daughter was abused and this was an extremely dysfunctional family. That's my take on this anyway.
