Maybe Cutting Off MAGA Relatives Is Wise: Dad Shot Daughter After Trump Row [View all]

It's more a symptom than a disease.

Perhaps if Lucy Harrison had cut out her Trump-loving father, she'd still be alive today.

Harrison, 23, was a British citizen visiting her (strangely undeported) father in Texas, in January 2025, when the two got into an argument about Trump that ultimately ended in her death.

Harrison was accompanied by her boyfriend, Sam Littler, who witnessed the whole thing and testified in the British government's inquest into her death. It is the practice of the British government to conduct inquests into all sudden deaths, at home or abroad.

"How would you feel if I was the girl in that situation and I'd been sexually assaulted?" she asked her father, Kris Harrison, an alcoholic who had just had three glasses of wine, during the argument.

. . .

Kris Harrison refused to participate in the British government's inquest, but he did release a statement through his lawyer.

Via BBC:

The statement from Kris Harrison said he and his daughter had been watching a news item on gun crime when he told her he had a gun and asked her if she wanted to see it.

They went into the bedroom so he could show her a Glock 9mm semi-automatic handgun which he kept in the bedside cabinet.

Harrison said he had bought the gun a couple of years before because he wanted a "sense of security" for his family.

He denied ever discussing it with his daughter before.

He said: "As I lifted the gun to show her I suddenly heard a loud bang. I did not understand what had happened. Lucy immediately fell."

Harrison said he could not recall whether his finger was on the trigger.

He acknowledged he had issues with alcohol in the past and said he "briefly lapsed" on the day of his daughter's death because he was emotional about her leaving.


Yeah, call me crazy, but I highly doubt this girl was itching to see Daddy's gun -- which we must note did not ultimately provide a "sense of security" for his family.
