Did anyone watch it? Watching this one I find it all shocking. The gun mentality. How common gunshots are. It's really scary.

Yes just finished it now.
I've rarely seen Louis look so rattled as he did at that crime scene. It was so sad.

Love Louis, I agree he looked so uncomfortable. Imagine having to live like that. So sad.

Louis is the man we should be judging all others against.

I found this one the most shocking and most depressing. I can't even imagine. It seemed like the police were a bit corrupt too and they needed to do more to build bridges and things too. Just seemed like everything needed to change!

I watched this with dh and we were both shocked. Sometimes I feel we are out of touch with the reality of a lot of people's lives near us in semi rural Scotland but this was a whole new level.

I thought the woman - Shanda? - was amazing, fostering kids and having to bath with a shotgun.

She was such a strong woman! I admired her.

purpleme12 · 23/10/2017 00:04

But she murdered someone when she was 13

Yes, it was shocking.

It was totally terrifying the foster mother with her gun collection no wonder Louis needed a vodka she had her first baby at 13 and her first murder at 15, bloody hell.

MrsJayy · 23/10/2017 12:26

Thing is guns were their norm death was their norm they expected to die by gun at somepoint.

JaneJeffer · 25/10/2017 23:37

Just watching this now. How the hell did this become a way of life or was it always like this in America? It's awful.

I love Louis. It should be mandatory watching. I love the way he doesn’t draw conclusions and can put people at ease.
Shocking documentary though, what a way to live. And completely overlooked
