Good thing these guys didn't have knives...


PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - A southwest Oregon man shot his wife in the back
after hiding in her car while she met with a divorce attorney,
authorities said Wednesday.

Travis Kendall, 26, of Myrtle Point, later killed himself after a
confrontation with Coquille Police Chief Mark Dannels, said Coos
County District Attorney R. Paul Frasier.

The woman, 22-year-old Ashley Kendall, was transferred from a
southwest Oregon hospital to Portland's Legacy Emanuel Hospital.
Frasier described Kendall's condition as "extremely" critical.
Hospital spokeswoman Amber Shoebridge declined comment.

The shooting is the latest in a string of murder-suicide attempts in
Oregon this month. Three have occurred in the Portland area, including
one in which a man burst into his estranged wife's workplace and
opened fire, killing his wife and himself while wounding two others.

Ashley Kendall's shooting was reported by her sister, who told police
she was on the phone with her when she he screams that "he" was in the
car. The call ended abruptly.

Investigators believe Travis Kendall drove to the attorney's office in
Coos Bay and hid in his wife's car while she was in the office, only
presenting himself when she started to drive. The wounded woman's body
was found on a street.

The shooting ignited an immediate search for Kendall and the missing
vehicle. Dannels spotted the car late Tuesday and gave chase until it
reached Kendall's home. Dannels fired shots during the ensuing
confrontation, with one them hitting Kendall in the leg. Kendall,
according to Frasier, then ducked around the corner of the house and
shot himself in the head. An autopsy will be performed.

Records show Travis Kendall was jailed on a domestic abuse charge in
October. He was ordered not to have contact with Ashley following his
conditional release. The Department of Human Services took custody of
their one child last month because of the home situation.


Good thing they had easy access to an efficient killing weapon,
otherwise these folks might have had a better chance of survival,
which they obviously didn't deserve. Sort of like the health care
debate. It's a priviledge to be shot rather than stabbed.

Even super-lefty Krause allegedly owns, and admires, handguns. Don't
hate him for it, tree-hugging commie.

I thought Oregon and Washington were left leaning paradises.

Only certain parts. You get outside the cultural centers and it
alternates between bum**** and mall world. Just like your
neighborhood. There are enlightened areas outside of Seattle and
Portland where learned types live, go to holiday and retire. They mix
with the regular folks and bring the mean IQ up by several points.

I live in paradise.

My Republican neighbors are a small minority, and getting smaller. A
couple down the street and a single mom up the street both voted for
Obama after supporting Bush. They realized that, as adults, they are
free to make a choice that won't weigh so heavily on their conscience.

BTW, one of them is a former prosecuting attorney who is rabidy
against guns. Wonder why?
