Yes. He is a murderer. Also a Marine. Also black. But the news only says he is a Marine. Is that relevant? Is it prejudicial against the Marines?

Yes, it does seem to be taking a slam at the Marines. Nothing new for the MSM.

Police said she was killed at the hands of a man who went on a multistate crime spree before he turned up Friday at an Arizona hospital with a gunshot wound.

God bless her precious soul. She was just a kid and that sorry SOB killed her, for no reason. I hope TX executes him as soon as his trial is over.

Amen. Too bad Ritchie didn't aim for a tender spot between the perp's beady eyes.

I am amazed that this incident does not get more attention regarding Right To Carry laws and self defense. In Los Angeles, the LAPD was and the local (Democratic)politicians were pushing for a ballot initiative to raise taxes for police services. The commercial they used to frighten the masses was incredible in its fear mongering.

"A woman alone at home on a dark night. Glass breaks, as the criminal enters her home she runs to her bedroom to call 911, but nobody answers. As she cowers on the floor in fear next to her bed, the man enters. She screams..."

Yep, pay more taxes or you will die. In my version, she pulls a Glock 40 out of the nightstand drawer and does the job the police, jury and judge would take ten years doing.

Thank God that the second victim was armed. Too bad the first victim wasn't. God rest her soul.

(I got a Smith & Wesson .357 magnum for Christmas. Next is the ccw application. I have every intention of using it if the need arises.)

It's absolutely prejudicial and almost certainly intentional.

Actually, I have a S&W model 29 (Dirty Harry) revolver using Remingtom Hollow Points. The good thing is that it will stop anyone dead in their tracks (pardon the pun). The bad news is the poor woman would have to repaint the entire bedroom. It would also wake up the neighbors. hahaha

LOL
Mine's an old Model 19, probly older than me and that is saying a LOT.
Probly the loudest pistol I've ever had.
Still works fine and is always close at hand.
