Fun With Guns: Crazy B List Actress Edition
So there’s this actress you’ve never heard of named Shannon Richardson and she was in Walking Dead and Vampire Diaries, two flicks I was somehow blessed to miss.
She loves guns, guns, guns. So much so that she had plead guilty to sending some serious crap through the United States mail.
Shannon Guess Richardson has pleaded guilty to sending toxic letters to both President Obama and the former Mayor of New York, Michael Bloomberg.
It appears as if Richardson was upset at possible gun restrictions.
The letter discovered during a routine screening contains the following paragraph:
“You will have to kill me and my family before you get my guns. Anyone who wants to come to my house will get shot in the face. The right to bear arms is my constitutional God given right and I will exercise that right till the day I die.”
She will possibly spend 10 years in jail where they don’t let you shoot people in the face most of the time.
Oh yeah, she’s from Dallas.
Thanks to Jean for the heads up.
Since she is now a felon, she won’t be able to have guns when she gets out.
Isn’t that special?
1Where do wimens like her come from? Oh, that’s right, Texasss.
2Oh, well, maybe we should dig deep to help pay for more mental health treatment facilities.
Isn’t it sad that so many people are so frightened in our society. Too bad they can’t comprehend that if things get so bad that they need to defend themselves, extra capacity magazines aren’t going to solve their problems. However, working together as a community to solve/alleviate problems now might actually do something. Like helping out the father of this woman’s newborn (has she dropped yet?) to keep the child safe.
3The Vampire Diaries and The Walking Dead are television series, the former is presumably about blood suckers, the latter is about Zombies. What do you think, type casting?
4Um, no, wait a second. This is the one who, while she DID send the stuff in the mail, she did it to make it look like her estranged husband did it.
So it’s a little unclear whether she actually believes the stuff in the letter or if those sentiments are made up to put her husband in a bad light.
It appears that she’s a special kind of monster, but those words are not necessarily part of her world-view.

5Wasn’t this the woman who tried to lay all the blame on her husband as the poison maker and sender? I think she has four kids. What a class act for those little ones to look up to! Not!!!
6“You will have to kill me …will get shot in the face… till the day I die.”
I’ve heard about actors and actresses inhabiting a role, but girl, you gotta leave the vampire & zombie stuff at the door when you clock out for the day. Or maybe get a part on a rom-com on occasion.
7Yep, her plan was to frame her “estranged” husband. Gosh, I wonder why he couldn’t get along with her.
8Sigh. . . . . Because of the ongoing crazy.
9I don’t believe any of us will ever figure out just what the hell is going on down there in Texas that has the batcrap crazies literally crawling out of the woodwork! I’ve never watched the Vampire show nor the Zombie one either, however, I did hear about the gal trying to frame her ex-hubby … so this gal is that piece of work, huh?
10As I’ve said all too often on this beautiful sunny Monday: Sweet Baby Jesus!
What more can one say?
Glad they put this wacko away.
11Too bad Shannon will be in jail, when she could have had a starring role in the D-grade remake of Fatal Attraction, Gun Edition. Now someone else will play her part.
Holy Gohmertz, there is crazy and there is crayzeeee.
Had she wanted to frame hubby, maybe she had a chance with Barney Fife and Deputy Dawg, had she kept it in Texas.
Sending ricin to the President of the United States to frame her husband? FBI labs, Secret Service, resources girl. Thought you could game the system? You made a big mistake sending your plan outside of your pond, Texas.
Good advice for all the Texas crazies: stay home.
12I love their “God given constitutional” rights. Does that really include shooting someone in the face if they come to the door? Of course, I may be wrong here because that “stand your ground” thingy may just give them that right.
13Well regulated militias aren’t what they used to be.
14“God Given” and ” Constitutional” Rights are not, my dear, the same thing. Ponder that while you wander the yard in an orange jump suit.
15Actually, she will probably get a an ankle bracelet and have to stay home for ninety days the way all that works now.
Hair dye will affect your thought process.
16Hey reamus, do you think it would be wise to explode their pointy little gohmert heads with the, “Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s”?
Seriously, the USA is a haven for religion. Tax free. The religious wrong, gun nuts and the capitalist hogs might want to stop killing the Golden Goose, before we the taxpayers say, Boy Howdy, enough of your mooching.
17Bernard and reamus got there first. Where exactly in the Bible does it mention the Second Amendment, and where exactly in the Constitution does it mention a god?
And where exactly is your sense, woman?
Man, I hope she’s not a natural redhead; I don’t need the embarrassment.
18Man if you snooze you lose ’round here.
So she’s 36 and has six boy kids, actress, part-time terrorist. Nothing amusing there, just real sad.
19Hm. Yeah, we all know that Second Amendment rights are the only ones that count. Life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness, and safety from lunatics who carry into public places for no other reason than craven fear of their fellow men/women just don’t count, right?
20I’m hoping that she takes the stand and elaborates on where the Bible addresses the right to own guns. I hope there are no speed bumps in her neighborhood; it’d be a shame to bruise up those nice knuckles.
21I think you are ranking here a bit high as a “B-List” actress. She is clearly an “L(oon)-List” actress right down there with Victoria Jackson and quite a few others.
22I am so sick of guns and the crackpots who own them. My husband and I have no children, our Abilene nieces were both killed in a duel with an 18-wheeler several years ago, which is why we are here for a while. We have three families in Denver, two of whom are Muslim, we consider like family, their kids all call us Aunt and Uncle. One of them is a student at Arapahoe High School, the young lady got shot in the face right outside his classroom, door open, the classmates witnessed the whole thing. Rough weekend. Another woman I worked with for several years is the Mom to the young woman who survived the cinema shooting in Aurora because her boyfriend laid on top of her…shielding her from the bullets that killed him. She was in the hospital for 33 days, almost died, too. Google Farrah Soudani if you need a gun violence/horror fix. An old business partner of mine’s daughter missed the Columbine shooting in the library by about 10 minutes. The agony I’ve witnessed second-hand will last me a lifetime. We’ve got to get a handle on gun ownership, access to guns, the whole thing.
