Here is the fifty-fifth article in our Republicans on Parade series, featuring individuals who personify what the Republican Party has become. Today’s honoree is Republican Ammosexual, Cole Campbell. He is so honored posthumously for combining extreme InsaniTEA with a extreme stupidity.
A Missouri family whose son was killed by a gun that was supposed to be unloaded is asking for “memorial” donations to be sent to the National Rifle Association (NRA) or other gun-rights groups in his memory.
On Wednesday, 21-year-old Makenzie Halinski was sentenced to seven years in prison for fatally shooting her boyfriend, 20-year-old Cole Campbell, according to the St. Louis Post Dispatch.
In an interview with Festus police, Halinski said that Campbell had a makeshift shooting range in his basement, and had been teaching her how to use guns on June 24. She said that he told her that one of the guns was unloaded, and said, “Shoot me.” But the gun was loaded, and a bullet struck Campbell in the forehead when she pulled the trigger.
She stated that the pair had been drinking and smoking marijuana at the time of the shooting. The Post-Dispatch also reported that the St. Louis County bomb and arson unit had to be called in to remove “several suspicious items” found at the crime scene. Those items were later described as “pipe bombs.”…

It boggles the mind that his family wants memorial donations to the NRA to lead more young fools into Ammosexual InsaniTEA. That shows that his Republican mental affliction was hereditary. Pray that his girlfriend is not pregnant.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
InsaniTea has poisoned the parents' minds. Don't even thik about the possibilty of the girlfriend being pregnant.
With her sentenced to seven years, let us indeed hope she is not pregnant. There is no possible good outcome for a baby starting out born in prison under these circumstances.
It absolutely boggles the mind that the parents would ask for donations to the NRA when their son was shot and killed with his own rifle in their home. And to boot, pipe bombs were found in the home.
The kid deserves a parade for stupidity and his insaniTea driven fetish for guns.
Personally, I think the parents also deserve a parade for their audacity to ask for memorial donations to the NRA for their deceased son. And why ever would one build a make-shift shooting range in the basement? What was the intended use of these pipe bombs? Did they raise a militia boy or a future sovereign citizen? I hope they realise that drugs, alcohol and guns make a deadly cocktail.
Stupid is as stupid does!
The girl is going to have 7 years to contemplate her future. She really needs some guidance on making good decisions, and not from his parents if they are even on speaking terms.
This is one of the saddest articles that I have ever read. His family are obviously fringe lunatics or they would never have had a shooting range in their basement, or brought up their son to worship guns. The thing I worry about is, how many more of them are out there. I am sure the NRA is ecstatic, more money in their bank account.
Thanks all. I also hope he was an only child.
