Wal-Mart faces suit in suicide by shotgun – The Register-Guard, Eugene, Oregon, USA

I guess I just don’t get it. Wal-Mart did all that could be expected under the law. From the sounds of it, these people should be suing the state of Texas for declaring records of mental illness private, or suing themselves for raising such a fucked up kid and turning her loose on the world.

DALLAS – Near the end of her short life, Shayla Stewart, a diagnosed manic-depressive and schizophrenic, assaulted police officers and was arrested for attacking a fellow customer at a Denton Wal-Mart where she had a prescription for anti-psychotic medication.

Given all those signs, her parents say, another Wal-Mart just seven miles away should have never sold her the shotgun she used to kill herself at age 24 in 2003.
