Federal Building. A Social Security recipient, upset about a cut in benefits came into the building with a shotgun under his coat. Before it was all over, a security guard was dead, a U.S. Marshall was wounded, and the perp was dead. Lots of people with no hope living on subsistence levels who might be dead in six months are going to be wanting to fight the beast. Especially when they get the letter telling them that their benefits have been reduced or cancelled. It's the next thing to receive a PC label. Just to insure that it doesn't have a derogatory meaning, and therefore the people involved don't feel bad about themselves. Steve RIP - The dead SO was a retired Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Sergeant, 66 years old, who had given of himself his whole career. You ought to at least try to get some important facts straight: "Wicks (the gunman) filed a discrimination claim against Social Security in 2008, alleging he was denied full benefits because of his race, according to court papers. A federal judge ruled against him in September. A law enforcement official said Wicks set fire to his residence before the shooting, and surveillance video indicates he was a lone gunman with no accomplices. The deputy marshal and the security officer were taken to a hospital, where the security officer, Stanley W. Cooper, died, said U.S. Marshals spokesman Jeff Carter. Cooper, an employee of Akal Security, had been a contracted court security officer with the U.S. marshals in Las Vegas since 1994, Carter said." 1. It wasn't about a "cut" in his benefits. 2. He was upset about losing a court case. 3. He went off his rocker before the shootings, setting his residence on fire. Wicks likely was receiving a policeman's retirement, social security, and pay from his retirement job as a "contracted court security officer." Was he living at subsistence levels? Unknown, but unlikely. Perhaps posters should have to score at least average on an IQ test before being allow to make misinformed, moronic posts like Steve B's. Wait...that would clear out loogy, justhate, BAR, flajim, Bob the Krueger, and a few others. Oh well.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - They won't let some little facts get in the way of their intellectual dishonesty! Man, sometimes you are worst than Harry. He does it to be an asshole, you actually believe that anybody with an opposing opinion must be a liar and nothing else. Do you understand the complexity of humanity, that two honest folks can have completely opposite opinions on an issue without lying?? I have never seen evidence of that from you..- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - You didn't see the dishonesty in the original post? Would you like me to point each one out? Sure. Go ahead. |
