Teen Planned to Attack Walmart After Killing Family

Teen Planned to Attack Walmart After Killing Family
By COLLEEN CURRY | ABC News


The New Mexico teenager who used an assault rifle to kill his mother, father and younger siblings told police he hoped to shoot up a Walmart after the family rampage and cause "mass destruction."

When his father, Greg Griego, walked into the home around 5 a.m., unaware of what had taken place, Griego shot him multiple times with the AR-15 rifle, Sheriff Dan Houston said today.

But hey those AR-15 military assault rifles are great for uh shooting Bambi and uh home protection amirite?

They are the best at slaughtering defenseless men women and children though. First choice in weapons of all mass killers you betcha!
