I have read this story over and over. And all I can think about is this:
I was raised in an alcoholic home, with a father that beat my mother and shot his gun at my mom and beat us children. But I did not follow those footsteps. I am 46 years old. I do not drink, do not do drugs, and I did not beat my children. I am a senior assistant manager in a fast-food restaurant. And to read where someone blames a childhood for why they do the horrible things they do is beyond me.
These men carried guns on their person into someone else’s home. No one went into their home with intention to harm anyone that made them mad or got in their way. In my opinion, if a person carries a gun on their person, they are pre-meditating at all times, because they are thinking, “If someone messes with me, I will show them something.”
Little deserved the death penalty, not life in prison.
