The women Greg was visiting was a business acquaintance and I think was also probably an employee. She Was also a close friend of my daughter and had recently been in a bad auto accident , which was why Greg was visiting. It was a bad deal all around. Phil, thanks for injecting some reason into this discussion. I hate the way everyone wants to believe the worst about Greg, instead of the gentle truth.

Personally, I could care less what the circumstances were. I only met Greg a few times and corresponded with him several times about bringing my son into hunting.
He was always generous with his time and willing to give his perspective on bringing a young man into our sport.
My son and I spent time with him at SCI and had a great time talking about hunts and rifles.
RIP

IF they had the half ounce of class you speak of, the comments wouldn't have been made in the first place.

I feel for those that have to live with the loss. They will never heal. May they find peace at least.

I'm glad to see some people stepping up. I posted the below in "Ask the Gunwriters":
Why all of the passing judgement and piling on? Investigators have said it was a professional relationship...we have no proof otherwise. He was a good guy, helpful to members on here and a great writer. Mourn his passing, celebrate his life, and move on.We want our second amendment rights...lets give him the right to be innocent until proven guilty. What if his family reads this crap everyone is writing?

Who knows when a couple may be having problems and a job and income to a woman may be the straw that would allow her to become self sufficient and move on and/or the straw that broke the camels back?

The tendency of some Oriental speakers to combine the l phoneme and the r phoneme is harmless enough � even some times amusing � when it makes election sound like erection, for instance, or vice versa, but woe unto us all when we equate crass with class.
"Good enough" isn't.

Agreed, it could be just a nut case. But the behavior of the shooter following the incident is textbook. If I'm wrong I'll be surprised. Not maligning the victim, just looking at the known facts and forming an opinion.
You know full well what you are doing. Not maligning the victim? Whatever dude... Looking at the known facts!? What known facts!? You know zero facts other he is dead. Unless you were there, you don't know what happened at this point. Known facts...since when are reporters privy to known facts? All you have is some articles speculating. Now shut the heck up!

Not always. Had a friend shot by a woman's husband at work. Why, because he was a [bleep] nutcase.

Not maligning the victim, just looking at the known facts and forming an opinion. If he had been just a nut case he would have shot the woman to . Evidently the man though something was going on , to shoot a man and then kill himself. He wasn't crazy or he would have killed everyone .

Get divorced or run away or whatever. Divorce is cheaper than life in prison. Don't go screwing married women, it might cost more than you think.

Sucks to hear this.
And really too bad that some jumped to conclusions. People don't usually go meet a chick, their having an affair with, at the chick's mother's house. Apparently that bit of obviousness escaped them.
