Too coincidental and too many gun-grabber themes.

Doesn’t sound right —— something missing here

There’s not enough information here to determine whether this is a ‘road rage’ incident.

Exactly. Perhaps the man who returned fire was well within his rights to do so to protect himself. He likely saved other’s lives, while losing his own.

Enraged drivers shoot, kill each other

How do they know both were "enraged?" I would postulate that the first driver probably was, and the second was terrified and defending his life.

All we know is the guy being tailgated pulled off the the road and the guy behind stopped also. Maybe something happened before the tailgating. Maybe not.

I remember once I accidentally cut a guy off and he followed me for 20 minutes until I pulled into a police station.

Anyway, it’s obvious the guy in front would not have been “enraged”. More likely scared. If “enraged” he would not have disengaged. The tailgater then fired and the first guy returned fire.

Gotta wonder if these two knew each other. Isn’t this a rural area?

re: “Too coincidental and too many gun-grabber themes.”

I agree. This story fulfills the “crazy gun nuts” template too well. As someone else mentioned, there is no evidence as to what caused the incident. One witness says one of the drivers was following the other too closely, but we don’t know why.

But, that doesn’t matter when your the media and you have your propaganda to get out.

Other side of the state. Ionia is working class and small town.

What a pant load. With the information provided they may as well have the headline:
