Ford vs. Chevy dispute leaves 3 people shot at Virginia home, prosecutors say

BEDFORD, Va. – A dispute that started with the age-old argument about the superiority of Ford versus Chevy trucks ended in gunfire, leaving multiple people shot at a Virginia home, prosecutors say.

He has been charged with felony malicious wounding, use of a firearm in the commission of a felon and possession of a firearm by a felon.

Turner had apparently gathered with his girlfriend, her son and her son’s girlfriend for a family dinner. Bedford County Commonwealth Attorney Wes Nance told WSET that alcohol was involved and that there was “a dispute” between Turner and his girlfriend’s son, Logan Bailey, about which truck was better, Ford or Chevy.

The argument turned violent when Turner pulled out a knife, Nance said. Bailey’s mother tried to intervene and was stabbed once in the back.

Turner then went into the house and returned with a handgun, authorities say.

[TheBlackAdder]

35. FORD - Found On Road Dead!

[mokawanis]

3. If you put a Ford engine in a Chevy and a Chevy engine in a Ford

they both go faster!

4. Automakers love this stuff. Brand loyalty taken to the extreme.

Yesterday, I drove to the supermarket, and found myself behind a Chevy pickup that had a decal in the back window, that read:

Eats Fords
{chevy logo}
Shits Dodges

Of course, the guy's Chevy pickup was rusted out on the tailgate. Nice!

[Initech]

14. Classy!

[MineralMan]

16. Yeah, that's what I thought, too.

That decal says a great deal about the guy who drives that truck. What does it say? "Look at this. I'm a moron!"

[Initech]

20. If I were an employer and a guy drove up to my place in that truck...

I would not hire that person. Seems that would be too toxic of a person to have around the office.

[quickesst]

5. It's too bad....

.... that someone got hurt arguing over second and third place.

7. Rural Virginia is catching up

I used to see this sort of story here in Virginia, but it was about whose dog was better.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

9. "... alcohol was involved." Well, at least they didn't prove it by racing.

Was there any news about who won? Is Ford better than Chevy?

[phylny]

11. It's the county where I live.

Everything you imagine, yup.

[underpants]

17. I've heard some odd things about Bedford

and I mean, from the locals (Roanoke).


Hey at least it's not Pulaski

[ProudLib72]

15. At least Ford circles their mistakes!

Sorry guys, but in this "Hatfield/McCoy" feud, I'm siding with Chevy.


Or maybe I should wait to see who has the bigger gun?

[underpants]

18. I have to remember that one

Ford circles it's mistakes

[ProudLib72]

22. And

F = found
O = on
R = road
D = dead

Those are the two I know off hand. I'm sure there are plenty more.

[suffragette]

23. There's also

Fix
Or
Repair
Daily

My brothers preferred Chevys.

[A HERETIC I AM]

36. And...

Fucked
Over
Raw
Deal

[MrScorpio]

25. The best trucks are definitely made by Ford.

It was pointless to have a gunfight over it.

[jpak]

26. Dumbasses + alchohol + guns *equals* Teh Stupid

Every time.

Yup

[Demovictory9]

28. Alcohol involved

[jberryhill]

30. I've had a fair amount of alcohol in my life

And at times I’ve had an unfair amount. It never made me want to shoot anybody. In fact, if I had been drinking, I would probably think, “This isn’t the best time for marksmanship.”

[Mariana]

34. Alcohol is not likely to transform a mild-mannered, even-tempered person

into a shooter. However, it is very well known to make violent people more likely to commit acts of violence, when they are under its influence. I'd lay pretty good money that Mr. Turner has a history of violent behavior.

[Takket]

32. this is just how we solve our problems now that gun culture has solidified its lock on us

someone cut you off? don't give them the bird and get over it... pull up along side and blow their head off!

someone wearing a hoodie? Blow their head off!

someone disrespected you? Blow their head off!
