You might want to change the "of" to "on."

He didn't shoot any of them dead did he?

I don't understand what's the problem here. Don't the cops know who to arrest in a kidnapping?

I think that dad is going to get filthy, stinking rich over this one.

"Don't make me out like I'm a bad guy here," Lohnes said. "I wanted to know who was hosting the underage drinking party, because my daughters are underage. When I tried to find out who was hosting the party, that's when they surrounded me."

Sounds like he pulled the gun in self defense to me.

Get a criminal AND civil good lawyer, and sue sue the pants off this town, the college, and the cops.

If I were surrounded by a frathouse full of intoxicated college boys, I think I'd consider MYSELF threatened. He was justified in pulling the gun, in my opinion.

He cared enough to drive there to get his daughters out of a bad situation. Give him a medal.

The courts, the judge in this town- are they liberal? If so, I wonder about his chances...

Please put me on the jury. Father has charges dropped and is awarded 1 case of 9mm sjhp. Frat boys charged with kidnapping children, false imprisonment and corrupting morals of minors.

I was guessing NY or MA. Guess NH is close enough.

Only in the Peoples' Republic of New England...

I'll bet the girls are in serious trouble with dad. Can you say, "grounded forever?" I knew that you could.

Maybe. But you have to be careful in situations like those. I kept a revolver and shotgun with me in my room throughout college. An escalation could have been very ugly, especially since he brandished first.
