April 14 (Reuters) - A Texas man used a gun to commit suicide in the
infield of a National Rifle Association-sponsored NASCAR race at the
Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth late on Saturday, local authorities
said.


Kirk Franklin, 42, of nearby Saginaw died after shooting himself at
10:30 p.m. on Saturday during the NRA 500 Sprint Cup race, according
to the Tarrant County Medical Examiner.


Franklin was involved in a verbal altercation with other race
spectators before the incident, said Daniel Segura, a Fort Worth
Police Department spokesman.


Franklin's body was found in the back seat of a truck, according to an
online police report. (Reporting by Brendan O'Brien in Milwaukee;

Hey, you finally got yourself a martyr. *Well, now...


There's no shortage of suicides by gun in this country. What it actually
is is a juxtaposition.


Looks to me like either it's a coincidence, or he purposely picked the
special place at the special event to cap himself, * to fit some kind
of an agenda.


Well, whatever the motivation, it's too bad there wasn't someone in his
life who could intervene, although, even if there was, it might not have
helped.


True, I do hate to hear of suicides, There's no call for it, but if a
person is determined to do it it will be done.

Sad.
