By now, most people have heard about Clay Duke entering a Panama City, FL school board meeting, painting a V on the wall in red spray paint- which appears in the comic book and movie V for Vendetta- and opening fire on the board members before a security guard began exchanging shots with Duke- who ultimately died from what is believed to be a self-inflicted wound.
The video below is from a different angle and contains a little more interaction between Duke and the school board members than most videos going around. You really cant see all that much once the shooting begins. As said earlier, no one was killed except for Clay.
However, who was Clay Duke?
According to his Facebook profile, Duke lists his political views as Freedom Fighter, religious views as Humanism, and bought heavily into class warfare rhetoric. This is specified from some of the quotes within his profile, they read:

One less vote for Obama.
Screw you and you statements...there is ONLY one group who have used violence as a tool.......tool.
There are definite incidents of leftwing lunatics actually picking up guns and shooting people out of frustration with our government. I guess the USA isn't communist enough, they're pissed, and they want someone to suffer for it. The left does that.
I don't see that sort of activity on the right. We have more to complain about (IMO) but we also seem to have more self control. We aren't the problem. Yet.
But what I was hinting at in my original comment was that a lot of decent patriotic Americans worry that we are headed for a revolution or second civil war. People on this board talk about torches and pitchforks all the time. The level of frustration is high on both the Left and the Right.
So far, only the Left has actually been violent -- but similar emotions are present on our side as well.
Same here.
Fuher Maidens were teenage girls basically sent to become pregnant. The Hitler youth boy who attacked his mother with a dagger while screaming “I belong to the Furher”. The complete destruction of the family.
I thought it was interesting how much fear you could see in the eyes of many of hitler’s adoring people. I’m definitely going to watch part 2 tonight.
He is dead. The security guard wounded him and then he took his own life.
I’m abt 1/2 thru Shirer’s Rise and Fall of the Third Reich...many first hand accounts, transcripts, and letters in this work. chilling stories for sure
The dude was taken out on stretcher .... dead.
Thank God we have term limits.
I shudder to think what this guy could do in 8 years.
Yep. The brave woman who tried to stop him by her attempt to smack the gun out of his hand with her purse would have been the one who would of taken this creep out.
He’s dead Jim!
Uh, actually, it was a man who shot Duke, disabling him and ultimately putting an end to the situation. Let’s stop the feminist claptrap, k?
Thanks for that comment.
I almost clicked onto that several times wondering if there would be any comparison to the Ker Plunket game we are in now.
I’ll have to watch it next time I see it listed.
Ended up watching Ramsey Christmas dinner special which is not the best idea late at night when the kitchen is closed.
Made it through with a Glass of Tomatoe juice and water.
History leaves the impression that Hitler was beloved by the German people but the reality is that it took orchestrated events, intimidation and community organizing to bring him to power. Apathy played a huge part in it as well.
One of the first narrators last night said something along the lines of “I didn’t support the nazis but none of us are innocent, we all breathed the same air”.
Of course the meeting was probably held on school property so in all probability, it was one of those awful "gun free zones" that we need to get rid of. Again--this guy didn't pay any attention to that--and the folks there were just damn lucky that he was shooting blanks...think about it!
FOX news was covering it quiet extensively early this A.M. but did not mention that while I was tuned in.
That is the perfect example of when a printed message at bottom of screne would have been useful.
Perp is Dead.
On another note, the lady who attacked the shooter in the Duke video was amazing. We should all be as bold and brave as Ginger
I agree with you....there is a limit to decent people’s patience. When that breaks it does not make them “extremists”....it makes them fed the F*** up. There is a very big difference as well as in keeping with our framers intent. That is not extremism......that is patriotism.
You might find the book UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES worth reading. I'm a bit reluctant to recommend it because of all the kinky sex in it, but I think it does describe how this is likely to play out. It won't be a repeat of 1860. It'll be more like Baghdad in 2006.
Borrow a copy if you can. It's out of print, and the prices on Amazon are absurd.
