Gordon Bissonnette, 46, left eight hate-filled messages on his mother’s phone, promising a bloodbath if the sister showed up for Christmas dinner, the New Britain Herald reported, citing police records.

Props to the police for taking the drunk seriously. Pity his daughter has to deal with his nonsense.

I don't know how his daughter can ever feel entirely okay about men after growing up with that one.

is so freakin' enticing, that people abandon being straight right away. Not sure what that says about their confidence in people being straight.
