Well... looks like there are four job openings in Ocala,Fla.
I thought he played for the Red Sox...must be a relative.
Honest mistake.
After this incident I might agree with the premise that pulling a prank on him was asking for it.
Call it suicide by knucklehead.
No such thing as ‘snapped.’ That’s what defense lawyers say to get their guilty clients off free.
Perhaps. The guy might not have been able to take much joking around. There are also people that aren't satisfied with getting a good laugh and dropping the subject. They bring it up incessantly and can get pretty annoying.
Office Prank CAUSED Man To Kill Co-Workers, Authorities Say
It wasn't vengeful hate or not being able to be humble enough to lose face in the eyes of your peers, etc. that was the source of being a multiple murderer.
No. 'Twas a prank...totally OUTSIDE the perview of this murderer.
(Per the liberal media, he could plead "NOT GUILTY" by reason of prank)
I think you're on to something.
With all due respect, the fact is we have three dead bouncers. Was it because this guy can't handle a gun or was it because he has a fragile ego and decided that he’d go kill some co-workers? What difference, at this point, does it make?
Or African-Amish
Target practice paid off but maybe not in a good way.
A variation of “buck fever” no doubt.
N.B.: The word “punchy” is often applied to former athletes with brain damage. It is short for “punch drunk”.
“Dementia pugilistica (DP) is a neurodegenerative disease or dementia that may affect amateur or professional boxers as well as athletes in other sports who suffer concussions. The condition is thought to affect around 15% to 20% of professional boxers.
“Patients with DP may be prone to inappropriate or explosive behavior and may display pathological jealousy or paranoia. Individuals displaying these symptoms also can be characterized as “punchy”, another term for a person suffering from DP.”
“I’m not sure why anyone would tease over that or why anyone would care.”
You have to take into account the probable maturity and/or intelligence level of the people involved.
Some people will hound you to death about the stupidest things. The dumber they are the worse it is.
My personal motto is: Never do something just to get a reaction out of someone unless you’re prepared for whatever reaction you might get.
Obviously we need reasonable YouTube controls now. If it saves just one child...
Maybe mild torquing of one's very best friends (one's you know won't snap and kill you), but the kind of Youtube jackassery I see know, even from "adults," is a symptom of a sick culture.
People are where they are because of the choices they make, and these three poor souls are where they are because they apparently had so little of importance to do that they had time to post some stupid crap on Youtube with the sole purpose of treating someone else badly.
If they didn't know him well enough to know he'd snap, they didn't know him well enough to tease him.
And he never did find the strawberries either.
Sure do. (but I’m old) A couple of years ago I put a locking axle in my Jeep. I was reading the supplied instructions and suddenly realized that whoever wrote them had far better mastery of writing than the last newspaper column that I had read. Pretty sad.
