A British woman was shot dead by her father last year after the pair had argued about President Donald Trump earlier that day. Lucy Harrison, 23, was fatally shot on Jan. 10, 2025 while visiting her father, Kris Harrison, in suburban Dallas at his home in Prosper, Texas. Harrison moved to the U.S. when Lucy was a child.

Prosper police originally investigated her death as a possible case of manslaughter, but a criminal case in Texas was not brought after a grand jury in Collin County opted not to indict him. Her death is being investigated in Cheshire Coroner’s Court in England.

    I’m beginning to wonder if the libraries worth of books written about WWII were an attempt to try to understand a phenomenon, but in all that examination we were still unable to identify the best way to prevent or battle fascism.

        I get what you’re saying but I think a better way is a far deadlier pandemic with an actual, perfectly working vaccine. Those idiots will refuse and kill themselves over their culture war.

          I distinctly remember one old man who refused the COVID vaccine, dying in the hospital, that was asked by a reporter if he regretted not taking the shot. He said no and he’s make the same decision again. He died ugly and in pain, and I’m glad he suffered for his stupidity.

            Change your own mind, ya misanthrope. You can’t hate humans better. The most important finding of all psychology is the Fundamental Attribution Error. Far less than our inherent traits, it is situations that dictate our behaviour.
