Tests showed Banda's blood alcohol was twice the legal limit when his Chevrolet Malibu rear-ended the Barajas' family's Ford 250 truck that had run out of gas on an unlit county road near Alvin, investigators said. The inebriated driver failed to swerve or even apply his brakes before plowing into the truck and crushing Barajas' sons, David Jr., 12, and Caleb, 11
I'm not sure if I'm reading this right, but it sounds like the guy slammed into the back of the truck... with the kids in between the two?

****. That's terrible.

Tragic story. If there was ever a case to be made for temporary insanity, I think this would certainly qualify.

BWillie 02-13-2013 12:48 AM

Jesus Christ you people are demented....and you condone this sort of thing. Unbelievable.

If this guy doesnt get the worst worst possible manslaughter charge then it is bullshit. Guy should get murder charge IMO. He knew what he was doing all along.

"The right" thing? Get real. That is the absolute wrong thing. Kick his ass. Fine shoot him. fuck no.

Like it or not this was an accident. A grossly negligent one, but that doesnt make it right.

I can see all the lunatic dads on this thread. These are the type of guys that if your kid gets his ass kicked at school you go run over to the parents house with a bat. Idiots.

The ****?

Yeah, because it's totally cool if the SON is unstable. :spock:

This.

disgusting and sad :| We don't have all the details obviously but what were given I'd have to convict him. I'd hope for a lenient sentence though.

I wonder if the driver of the car was already dying before the father came back and shot him? He was still seated in the front seat of the car minutes later so I'd assume he was either unconscious, immobilized somehow, or badly badly injured. I wonder if that would change the fathers case for better or worse

After watching your children crushed to death, it's pretty easy to see red and lose all sense of reason.

I could see almost any father would go full on Martin Riggs at that moment: http://youtu.be/mp9YWsV0W8I?t=1m15s

You witness two of your kids smashed to death by a drunk driver and you wouldn't act irrationally or possibly want to end this douche bags life?? I think he just followed through with what every normal father would think about doing. Good luck though re-living the tragedy over and over again in court while the drunk douche sits alive and well because he was negligent.

He was drunk, so I'm sure he was perfectly unharmed.

I don't like the idea of letting anyone think it's OK to take the law into his/her own hands.

That said, I can't even imagine what I'd do if this happened to me, but I think it'd be more along these lines. It makes me sick to even think about this.

Chief Gump 02-13-2013 10:55 AM

The only problem with this entire story is whether the dad knew the guy was drunk. Horrible accidents happen when people are completely sober, he could have been shooting someone completely sober. I still probably don't want him convicted of murder.

DonkyPuncher 02-13-2013 01:18 PM

Should have just beat him to death, as a father that's what I would have done..
