They have responsible gun owners
in Portugal too, and they’re just as trigger happy. Another thing
Portugal also has are Da Silvas and they’re just as trigger happy. I
find it tragic that a little girl had to witness the death of her father
from the arms of her grandfather.

António Ferreira da Silva (the grandfather, age 67) killed his
daughter’s ex-boyfriend, Claudio Rio Mendes (the father of the 4 year
old child, age 35) while holding his granddaughter in his arms. The
images of the murder, taken from an amateur video, prove that the 4 year
old girl witnessed the moment when her father was gunned down. The
incident took place in Oliveira do Bairro, Portugal.
The relationship between the grandfather and his son-in-law got on a
slippery slope after the young couple separated following the woman’s
allegation that the man was abusive. Still, being the father of the
child, Claudio wanted to stay with his daughter who was forcibly taken
away from him.
Because Claudio was not having any of the shit from the in laws,
father of Ana Carriço – his ex pulled out a .32 caliber revolver and
popped 6 bullets in his son in law while holding his granddaughter in
his arms.
After unloading his gun, the grandfather told the witnesses of
murder, which included Claudio’s new girlfriend who was pregnant at the
time, that he would turn himself in. What a way for the kid to start off
her conscious life.
