Angry dad Tommy Jordan has received national attention after he appeared in a video shooting his daughter's laptop with a .45-caliber pistol as payback for a bratty note she posted on Facebook.
A gun-slinging North Carolina pop isn't sorry for shooting up his teen daughter's laptop in a video that went viral over the weekend - he just wishes he wore a nicer hat.
Tommy Jordan videotaped himself last week firing nine bullets into his 15-year-old daughter Hanna's computer as payback for trash-talking him on Facebook.
The video has received more than 21 million views on YouTube, and, according to Jordan's Facebook page, prompted cops and Child Protective Services to visit his Albermarle, N.C. home.
Jordan's Facebook comments were first reported by The Daily.
"Of course came," Jordan wrote. They received enough 'Oh my god he's going to kill his daughter" comments that they had to."
"The police by the way said 'Kudos, Sir' and most of them made their kids watch it. I actually had a 'thank you' from an entire detectives squad," Jordan boasted.
"How's about those apples? Didn't expect THAT when you called the cops did you?"
Jordan also wrote that he and Hannah had separate chats with a "nice lady" from child services.
"No I'm not losing my kids…and I actually got to spend some time with the nice lady and learn some cool parenting tips that I didn't know," he wrote.
In the video, shot on Feb. 7, Jordan ripped into his daughter for complaining in a nasty rant on Facebook about having to clean up around the house, take out the trash and make coffee for her parents.
After vowing to put a stop to her spoiled behavior, Jordan whipped out a .45-caliber pistol and plugged the teen's laptop full of exploding hollow point rounds.
In a Facebook posts from the weekend, Jordan complained about receiving unwanted attention after the video went viral.
"I just had a friend run Good Morning America off my lawn.. grr," he wrote.
In a later post, he apologized for cussing in the video and said he regretted smoking a cigarette because he'd promised his wife he'd quit.
Otherwise, "If I had it to do again... let's see... I'd do it almost the same," he said.
I'd have worn my Silverbelly Stetson, not my Tilley hat if I'd known that image was going to follow me the rest of my life…" he wrote.
