Colorado Gun Shop Owner Killed Wife, 2 Children Before Taking His Own Life



Police in Colorado Springs allege that a man killed his wife and two of their nine children before taking his own life on Saturday.

According to the El Paso County Sheriff's Office, 55-year-old Christof Kreb killed his wife of 26 years, Yvette Siegert-Kreb, 50, and two of their children, Felicity Kreb, 13, and Barrett Kreb, 9.

1. Fucking gunner. The 2nd Amendment is a national suicide pact.

2. Some people think the murder rate is high because of

easy access to firearms.

I think they may have a point.

3. Really curious about motive...

Just curious, though.

4. 7 kids left orphaned . . . ?

Guns sure make killing people so much easier than other methods.

5. Maybe a case of PTSD? Guns and troubled vets is a bad mix. n/t

6. Why don't these jerks start with themselves?

7. Horrific.

If by "registered agent" the newspaper meant he was a Federal Firearms Licensee, then he was thoroughly vetted through a background check.

Of course, things can change with a person. I doubt this story will get much more coverage, but I suspect warning signs will be discovered as the investigation goes forward.

8. Let me guess: another 'law-abiding gun-owner'? Check.

9. Two biological children. The rest adoptees from China. one is a cadet at AFA.

Weird, sickly tragic story.

I believe that most of the children diagnosed with dwarfism.

10. I recall a segment on Rachel Maddow where she stated that having a gun in the home

raises the likelihood of a gun death by 60 times.
