OMG...when I saw this headline, it made me sick to my stomach...and it had nothing to do with the media frenzy that he like of Jack Thompson will have, but the fact that this piece of shit would kill his kid over anything, especially something as trivial as this.  As a proud Dad of 2 great boys, this just pisses me off, and I hope they lock this piece of garbage away in a deep cell for the rest of his life!

Police: Houston dad killed son over video game

Man surrenders after three-hour standoff

A father who allegedly shot and killed his teenage son during an argument over a video game surrendered Sunday to police after a brief standoff with SWAT officers at a southwest Houston apartment, authorities said.

Ofelio Antonio Otero, 40, had been drinking heavily when he began arguing with his wife over the whereabouts of a missing video game around 4:15 a.m. at the family's home in the 7700 block of Corporate Drive, Houston Police Department spokeswoman Jodi Silva said.

Otero then started fighting with 17-year-old Ignacio A. Otero about the game. During the argument, he loaded his gun, authorities said.

“The son then proceeds to try and knock the gun away and then he runs away,“ Silva said.

As the teen was running, the father allegedly fired one shot, striking his son in the neck.

The boy died at the scene and the father ran away.

Police found Otero at an apartment complex about 2½ miles away in the 9000 block of Town Park. After a three-hour standoff with the HPD SWAT team, Otero surrendered to police at 11 a.m., Silva said.

Otero, who is facing a murder charge, has a prior criminal history in Harris County that includes a DWI conviction.

yep, just some people man. freakin dumb -_-

NRA will come and declare than guns don't kill....sick bastards....

The question is ... what game had gone missing?!

Guesses: ODST or U2 :)

That's horrible. He should be locked up for a very, very long time.

Well he was already a con man, and drunk, anyone actualy surprised?

Now tell me please, why is having a gun still legal in America?

Makes we which there was a penal colony like Butcher's Bay for animals like this.

There's no excuse for this, and personally, it has NOTHING to do with gaming, imho.  This was just a really sick individual, who would have shot the kid over something else, probably.  The perception is that, it's a gaming related story, and it helps the cause of the anti-gaming set.

It's in the 2nd Amendment...which means it's kinda important to our way of life.  Imho, blaming guns, is like blaming games...this bastard would have stabbed the kid, imho...although he might not have caught him, you might say, but...that's speculation. 

thats horrible he should be fucked up
