Bob Sullivan, MSNBC --- Parents angry about Facebook use now have their poster child. He's a dad wielding a .45 pistol, who posted a YouTube video showing him firing bullets through his daughter's laptop computer as an act of discipline.
The shooter, who identifies himself as Tommy Jordan from North Carolina, has not yet responded to requests for comment, so it's not possible to verify the authenticity of the stunt, in which he allegedly “executed” the laptop after his daughter posted a profanity-laced note on her Facebook page.
No matter: it’s sparked a firestorm of debate. In less than 24 hours, the laptop-pistol video has garnered more than 1.5 million views, many of them parents cheering the uploader's depiction of tough love.

Laptop-shooting dad...
This actually happened... I guess the so called experts on MSNBC didn't like this video. That mean's that the guy featured on the video has to be a pretty solid person. The moral of the story is don't act like a jerk to your parents. I would have taken a sledge hammer to it and not wasted the eight hollow points shells.
