With our mix of rabid gun hysteria and mentally ill folks with little to no options for treatment, I’m only surprised this didn’t happen sooner.
ETA:
In May, a man in Virginia was charged with second-degree murder after he shot and killed a teenager who had filmed a TikTok video playing the doorbell game on the man’s home at 3am, according to local police reports.
Oh, so it did happen sooner. Children getting shot to death just isn’t newsworthy enough anymore for it to have been a noticeable story. Go figure.
Can’t do that stuff these days. Just don’t mess with people period. No prank is worth it.
