If the Hudson triple-murders weren't awful enough -- some sleazeball is now using the tragedy to scare you into buying his company's product.
A. John Peters -- we're guessin' the A stands for A-hole -- sent out a press release with the unbelievable title: "Could a Bedside Shotgun Rack Have Saved Jennifer Hudson's Family from Tragic Death?"
The answer is most likely no. Only one of the three victims was shot in a bedroom.
A-Hole says he didn't issue the release to capitalize on the family's pain -- but are you buyin' what he's sellin'?

like dr. laura always says, don't remarry after a divorce. the new spouse won't be a good spouse to you or your kids in the long run. jennifer's sis should of just raised her boy and stayed away from men.

Us, People, InTouch, and TMZ are all capitalizing on this tragedy, why should this guy be any different? At least he's offering a solution.

All I can say is what about that town in Texas where they passed the law that EVERYONE had to own a gun and keep it in their home. The crime rate in that town didn't go down, it flat out disappeared.
However, I don't think this man should use a tragedy to push a dumn product. Everyone knows you're supposed to keep your gun under your pillow.

Robin #15 Quite the opposite. All I need the government to do, is pave the roads, keep our borders safe, and quit
dipping into my pocket and taking more and more of money.
you can label me whatever you want, Kennedy democrat, Reagan republican, I don't care about any labels, just keep the
government out of my life. I can make it on my own, thanks. As far of which candidate, I don't really care for McCain, but
I definitely don't want Obama taking control of every little decsion in my life.

The grossest thing about it, is that the sick-o got just what he wanted. Attention to his "product". People like him don't even deserve to have the time of day given to them.
Did he even know a child was shot? What is he going to do next to get this gun rack out on the market? Target P.T.A. cakewalks?

10 years ago when Selena was killed, a few Texas politicians argued that if citizens were allowed to carry concealed weapons then Selena may be alive. Sorry, but her and her family do not seem like the type to be carrying guns around. What this man is doing is no different. Using a tragedy to push ones own profit or agenda. I'm not going to argue on whether or not this is a good product, or whether or not people should carry guns; the point is that it is absoulutely tasteless to use tradegy as a selling point without the families support.
