A man in Memphis shot his wife in the gut and then drove her to the hospital — but stopped to pick up a beer along the way, according to local officials. Decarlo Pitchford, 51, pulled the gun on his wife when they got into an argument on July 19 at their Tennessee home after the woman threatened to leave him, Law and Crime reported.

“I told you stop playing with me,” he allegedly said before pulling the trigger of his Ruger handgun.

If you're headed to prison, a beer stop isn't the worst idea.

My BiL is in Houston suburbs and his neighbor shot his wife in the arse with a .22 and then took her to the hospital.

He obviously went to jail but I’m sure effort was appreciated

I had a buddy who worked crime scenes. Asked him about the first o e he ever worked and the story he told was nuts. Said he showed up and they still had the husband in the back of a unit and the wife’s brains were blown out all around the kitchen. He said the other cops told him to go to the unit and ask him why he did it. Being the rookie he did … walked up to the car, opened the door and asked the guy “why did you do it?” The guy said “I told that bitch not to make any more cabbage for dinner.”

He said he walked into the kitchen and sure enough, there was a pot of cabbage on the stove.

Some times crazy people do crazy things over the slightest little thing.

A man's got to have his priorities in place. Probably had to carry that fatass to his car and got a thirst going and needed to hydrate to complete the task.

Maybe it was New Years and she wanted financial prosperity. I guess he felt they had enough money. She became greedy and he was just trying to teach her a lesson. Was that so bad?

Black culture is broken. I’ve met some good ones, but the bad ones are the ones who are ruining the good ones’ reputation

One of my favorite Richard Pryor bits is him shooting his wife's car.

"She said they was leaving me. Not in this mother-fricker you aint!"
