THE MISSING LINK: If you're missing a link, they're all here.
It is likely that I will blog about politics; about the FDA and the CPSC; about U.S. security; about immigration; and about the antics and shenanigans of politicians. I will also post original, proprietary, copyrighted poetry under my Bakersfield.com nom de plume.

A blog about Politics, Personal Journals, and Business & Finance.

THE UNTHINKABLE

If this is a repetition of anyone else's blog, please forgive the lapse; I have not seen all the new blogs. 

This is a remarkable story in so many ways.  I read in my paper this morning about a Michigan man who, when he learned that his 15-year-old son had [allegedly] raped a 3-year-old girl, allegedly had his son strip naked, and then marched him to a vacant lot, where he shot him dead.  His wife and son had both been pleading for mercy.

The man has been arrested. 

This is a story many of us can understand.  We can empathize with the father's loathing for the alleged act of his son, and we can imagine the thinking of the father that he was going to stop this from happening again by this alleged offender. 

The story is horribly sad for everyone involved.  It's remarkable because seldom do we hear of parents becoming involved in any aspect of such an offense. 

One can only wonder what things must have been whirling in the man's mind as he [allegedly] shot his son.
