In the news...

So how many of you saw the story about the guy that went into a school board meeting with a gun? The footage is crazy.

Or how about the stranded motorsits in Canada? Obviously this one is closer to home for me but still seemed insane. Over 200 motorists were stranded on on the 402 in Canada due to inclement whether they had to be rescued.

Just two stories that caught my attention in the last 24 hours.

Re: In the news...

  • I barely ever catch the news. Nick sometimes has the nbc nightly news on while he's making dinner and I play with C and so I hear bits and pieces from that but we haven't this week so I hadn't heard any of this.

    Part of the reason is b/c I like to stick my head in the sand at stories like the first one. The world is scary!! And um, the Canada one is crazy!!

    This was to scary.. It was really hard to watch when the guy drew his gun at the superintendent.

  • I watched the first one earlier this morning and wow...that guy had some serious problems. From what I've studied regarding psych patients, this guy seems to fit right in. I wouldn't be suprised if he didn't have a history of psych disorders. In the video he obviously had delusions of prosecution and was very paranoid. He made references to V for Vendetta with the symbol he painted on the wall so he felt like he related to that in some way. And the guy either was intoxicated or had no training in how to use a gun...did you notice as he was firing he "lost control" and ended up falling to the ground due to the kick of the gun? Very strange. I was surprised to see how well the superintendent handled the situation...he was so calm! I know I would be the first to duck under the desk. I'm glad that no one was hurt except for the gunman.

  • I heard about the roads being closed last night.  The pictures they showed were insane, I couldn't believe it.

    The school board story was so sad.  They played the audio this morning and the one board member was right, the guy wanted to die, it was just a matter of how.  Apparently his wife had been fired as a teacher.
