Blob, did you watch the trial? Did you see Michael Barisone sitting at the defendant's table? He looks like a broken man.
Does that excuse him from shooting someone? No. He is going to spend time in a psychiatric facility and he looks like he needs to.
He looks like a disaster!

Re: Barisone Trial
Chisamba, It is sad that Michael Barisone followed them down the rabbit hole...to use your phrase. I'm not sure he was able to prevent himself from doing so. And Lauren rather seemed like she was pushing him down it as well.

We had a Blue Tick hound mix. Clark. He was an amazing tracker....though we didn't find out until later in his life.
He was an amazing pet. It was a very sad day when we lost him.
For the record, Tanga, he only howled once that we ever heard.
