Felon WOW player drives across country to kill teenager.

WoW in IMHO? No, MPSIMS ASAP.

I’m I required to freak out now about being moved to MPSIMS or is that optional still?:slight_smile:

:wink: While I can appreciate that statistically speaking, every person in the US might be a homicidal pedophile and that there’s no guarantee of any even spacing of anything, on average, there will be average spacing.

Humor is one way that humans deal with stressful/uncomfortable situations. I guess irrational panic is another.

I don’t really know why you would find something like this “stressful/uncomfortable” seeing as you are not remotely connected to this situation. My point was that living in the city where this occurred, I quite likely could have known someone connected to the situation or who knew the intended victim.

Just my take. Carry on.

Madison, eh? Do you know Scott Dikkers?

Nope, I don’t.

He’s a good guy

The guy should have waited for his cooldowns to be up before he left. NEVER take on a dangerous mob while your CDs are down!

This made me laugh out loud. Maybe his energy bar (or whatever–I don’t play WoW) was getting low, so he weaponed up to compensate? Just a WAG.

Missed edit window. I was only kidding about the WAG, btw.

And how was mom so instrumental? She refused to let him in and then she screamed when the nutjob pulled a gun on her. I put these things down to common sense and an impending sense of doom aka stark fear. She did call the police, so there is that. If anything, the cops were instrumental in that they didn’t blow the mom off.

She had taken steps before the guy showed up to try and stop him. Reread the story. She did not believe him and let him see her son. She did slam a door in his face and get shot at to prevent him from seeing her son. I think that was instrumental in saving her son and they did know who to look for because of her earlier involvement in trying to prevent him having contact with her son.

“We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a saltshaker half-full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers… Also, a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether, and two dozen amyls. Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get into locked a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can.”

What the fuck are you blathering about.

Hunter Thompson would be proud of this dude’s ability to properly assemble a trunk full of contraband.

Only 4 guns? A lot of gun owners have that many under their pillows… under each pillow!

Would have been funnier than hell if he had charged at the cops yelling
“LLLLEEERRROOOYYY JJJEEENNNKKKIIIIIIIINNNNSSS!”
