Well, I'm not convinced that this was a true bio-agent. It could have been his own urine for all likelyhood. Maybe he didn't like paying $45 for that last Hillary book. That could set anyone off...

The thing is that in any case it's unacceptable in this day and age. Such behavior should be shut down as harshly as possible.

It'd still freak me out though. Who does stuff like that without being a nutjob? I'd feel the same hesitation before reporting it, I'm glad this guy did.

BTW - I was reading your homepage even before I even saw your post. Great job. Thanks for your service!

Thanks. My wife thinks I have a real strange sense of humor.

Could it be so? Nah, impossible!!!

No question he was a nutjob. He was acting very strange. I spotted it immediately. It was clear that he had a purpose in being there and it wasn't to buy coffee or books. He was keeping the spray bottle close to his leg and pumping it without raising his arm so as not to attract attention. After he left the Barnes & Nobles he loitered near the entrance (in the rain) for a couple minutes at least and then left.
