His demands are nothing new. You see people spouting that bullshit over in P&R every damn day. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

It's a bit ironic, because he says kids are unnecessary and we're near population overload. The guy is a loon, and I hope someone gets his head in check after they tackle his bomb-laden ass and get him under control. | |

The troops got called back today, I guess he missed that news too busy plotting this hostage situation.
11. You're also going to find solutions for unemployment and housing. All these unemployed people makes me think the US is headed toward more war.
The Discovery channel, he wants the Discovery channel to do this....
I pray this situation ends with the lives of all the hostages saved and noone hurt. That dude must have forgotten to take his meds today or something. Sigh.
One minute they want peace……
Then do everything to make it go away. | |

Police kill Discovery building gunmanExplosive detonates; three hostages safe, Maryland police saySILVER SPRING, Md. — Police shot and killed a gunman who held three hostages for several hours Wednesday at the Discovery Communications building in Silver Spring, Md., authorities said. They said the hostages were safe. At least one explosive device on his body went off when he was shot, and other explosive devices could still be in the building in Montgomery County in suburban Washington, D.C., Montgomery County police Chief Thomas Manger said. It was not clear whether there was any damage. Manger said no one was believed to have been injured other than the gunman, whom SWAT officers shot about 4:50 p.m. ET because officials “believed the hostages were in danger.” “We had been talking to him for several hours and he had a wide range of emotions,” Manger said. “He pulled his weapon and we came in.”
