I’ll let the story give you the details:
When Geoffrey Farrar was found bleeding from the head and lying mortally injured at the base of a cliff near the Billy Goat Trail in Montgomery County, word quickly spread through the rock-climbing community that the 69-year-old had taken a rare, tragic fall….But his death on a Saturday afternoon, three days after Christmas, was no climbing accident, according to federal authorities. They allege that he was killed in a dispute with a younger climber he had mentored for about two decades and that the weapon was a claw hammer, a tool common in the sport, wielded near one of the C&O Canal park’s most popular trails.
Yep, we need to ban guns because they make it “too easy” for a simple dispute to become murder. “Gun Death” is a bullshit metric!
