If you want to ban him from seeing your daughter fine... plenty of girls out there. Want to call me up and arrange a sit down with BOTH kids and tell them the error of their way...even better.
Parents should present a united front.
If you want to go to the knife with my kin, then by all means you better learn to eat your breakfast running, because I will be hunting you down.
Oh and if you get caught by the law before I get you, take note that my son's Mother and Uncles are corrections officers, so dont expect to have a real comfy time inside.
And when you are inside, my daughters will be seeing to your daughter on the outside too.
It's time for the girls to stand and take responsibility for their actions.
Yeah, no kidding. I so LOVE the righteous hatred towards that 19 year old kid that will never walk again. Sheesh, how startling, a teen boy and girl foolin' around. I guess if you get caught you should be brutally beaten and permanently damaged. I wonder if any "he deserved it" crowd have ever considered that their own kids probably do the exact same thing as the poor guy in this article. Heck, I wonder if any of them ever did this stuff themselves when they were younger? According to them, never! They were all virgins when they got married and only have sex to procreate.
Nope. Arkansas age of consent is 16.
You might have a happier life if you quit worrying about your daughter's boy friend or the neighbor kids beating you up.
Better keep that firearm handy though, just in case.
Depends on whether the boy friend's clothes were on or off...
I suspect daughter has absolutely no respect for dad any more. Basically, he almost killed her.
“I’m not going to comdemn him for it, but I’m not going to endorse it either.”
If you’re a father I simply cannot see how you can’t help but condemn a father who blindly shoots through a door into a room where his daughter is standing. Would you really do that????
“You going to offer him a beer and say thanks for F#$%ing my daughter?”
Once again, there are numerous options between thanking him and and paralyzing him with a shot that just as easily could have hit your daughter. If you can’t see that, you’re hopeless.
“PS - The boyfriend, who was 19, could have been charged with statutory rape. Instead, he is now the victim, and the dad is charged with a felony. Stupid.”
Read the posts. This is NOT statutory rape in Arkansas, nor is it in many other states, including mine.
If your daughters are normal teenage girls, they’ve done most of the things YOU did in high school and maybe even a few you didn’t know about. You know, making out and petting, maybe even more. Possibly more. Probably more.
That’s if they are normal.
But maybe they are, as you insist, abnormal.
Get your head out of the sand.
Face the facts of life.
Why did “Baby Elephant Walk” pop into my head?
Premeditation would be going to the room armed intending to kill Guzman. Not running to get a gun after a possible alleged assault and subequent barricade.
Ditto
All teenagers weren’t that way when I was younger and aren’t that way now. Don’t attempt to disparage all of society because of what popular culture demands or whatever raunchy life you may have lead.
I had fun as a teenager but still lived a life of moral decency because of the way my parents raised me. I’m raising my girls (and boys) in a similar fashion. There are no surprises because I know where they are at all times, who they are with and what they are doing.
Per the entire article, Guzman initated the assualt of Reed, and Guzman had been forbidden to enter the house without an adult present. The daughter is not an adult and has no right to change the rules set by the father, who is the homeowner.
Where does it say that? The article says he beat him with a pool cue and made him bleed, not that Guzman was "near death".
The exxaggerations and presumptions here are amazing.
Lets wait and see where the bullet holes are in the door. Reed says he did not shoot into the room but up and down at the top and bottom of the door.
