This was all over the news tonight.

A man came into a school board meeting in Florida, spray-painted an encircled V on the wall and approached the members of the board with a gun in his hand accusing them of firing his wife.

Several articles have mentioned that this man doesn't have a wife.

The members of the board tried to talk the man into calming down, with the man pointing the gun at them and shooting.

The video below shows the conversation. It, however, does not include a security guard shooting the man in the leg with the man subsequently shooting and killing himself.

New York Times story on it

Sorry about the duplicate thread. The video I saw was when the man got shot.

I'm surprised that he did not miss when he shot himself. That man is deader than hell right now. Hope he burns

It's pretty compelling stuff.

If you have more videos of it, please post them. This does stop before it we see him shot.

It's just.. wow. These people are sitting there, sure they might die at any second and they're either trying to talk him out of it, or in the case of the one guy, saying to let the others go and just take him. I know a lot of us think we would say things like that, but I think I'd more petrified and unable to speak.

Alright. I got two videos. Mind you, this is not mind safe. You will see this man die.





Yep. Fucked up

Also that man who told the gunman to let the others go is a god damned hero

The man's wife just came forward to defend him.

SOURCE (with video)

She calls him a "gentle giant" and "what he did was wrong in the eyes of the law and society, probably."

This poor woman is obviously going through a lot.

On another note, the man was a convicted stalker who kept intimidating his wife, even sitting in the woods outside her house with a gun.

Do I have to wait for the body to turn cold before I can start making fun of him or is that kinda outlaw'd here.

Figured I would kinda dip my toes in the water before I might piss anyone off.

As far as I know, we have no such thing as "too soon" here.

Not ganna make fun? I understand how bad this situation could of been, but face it:

You are NOT a 300lb V for Vendetta badass who owns with wit and weapons.

Just because your an inbred dumbass (listen to what he says vs his tone and actions) that spary paints a giant V on the wall with a Circle does not mean you are immediately in the Right.

I dont' care. This is one individual who needed to go away. He was completely crazy, and his wife is just about as idiotic as he was. I feel sorry for this girl and her low IQ, because just by how she talks, you can tell his crazy bastard was the brains of the family.

Congradulations asshole. Your stupid stunt is going to have Soccer Mom put more pressure on TV and Movie media, as well as put more rules and regulations on Gun Rights, and laws surrounding Schools are going to be more intense.

And what did you get out of it? You repainted the floor with your skull, and made your wife a widow.
And because of that suicide, she can't even claim your life insurance.

Way to fucking go.

^^^ Never stop posting. I mean it Kaijin. I love you.

Also, I'll double post if I have to. The jokes keep coming

He probably killed himself because he knew he'd be a laughing stock on the internet for missing at such a close range and then firing awkwardly into the ground.

Spoiler:
He could never show his face around /b/ again!


Ginger is a dumb broad who is lucky he didn't just pop her. Even that guy couldn't have missed that shot (because she was on the floor).

I'm just getting warmed up

I'll be honest. I didn't feel one bit of sympathy for his wife. The guy seemed like a prick.

I hate to mock the dead or judge someone for what was obviously a bad decision, but come on.

The moment his widow said, "What he did was wrong in the eyes of the law and society, probably," I snickered.

" ... and society, probably"? WHAT?

You pull a gun on a bunch of unarmed people, not explain yourself in any way whatsoever, and just start shooting -- that's against society, culture, the law, the 10 commandments, Sesame Street, EVERYTHING WE'VE BEEN TAUGHT NOT TO DO.

The only thing he did right was miss A LOT.

I was talking to my friend about this in a Wawa (If you don't know what a Wawa is, I pity you.) and some older man, in his early 40's pitched in and said:

"Yeah, in Florida, right? (I nodded.) What a fucking nut. At least he killed himself so they don't have to waste money on him in prison."

So there's your word from the street, Xeogaming.
