Surveillance footage shows McGlockton then walked out of the store and shoved Drejka to the ground. Seconds later, Drejka pulled out his gun and fired a single shot at McGlockton in the chest. The 28-year-old stumbled back into the store and collapsed in front of his son.

Drejka has a concealed weapons permit and told police he shot McGlockton because he feared for his life.
Translation: Drejka has a concealed weapons permit and told police he shot McGlockton because he is a huge pussy who can't defend himself.

Drejka sounds too much like a Russian Dredd not to be funny.

I just got home TODAY from a vacation in Branson, MO where this happened. There were tons of candlelight vigils going on. If we had chosen our activities differently, that could have been us. Scary shit

Branson, MO sounds like the kind of place you vacation from.

Tons of lawsuits coming.

- Captain advised where the life jackets were but told folks they weren't mandatory.
- Weather advisor said they shouldn't go out but he did anyway.

My son was on this ride just days before it happened. Still sends chills down my spine.

They're not.

Would wearing life jackets have made the deadly Branson duck boat accident even worse?
