Update:
PORTLAND, Ore. - The first Portland Police officer to arrive on the scene of the man who set himself on fire Wednesday outside the Nicholas Ungar Furs store, accidentally used pepper spray in an attempt to put out the flames instead of a fire extinguisher, officials at the Portland Police Bureau said Thursday.
Police said the officer, who was nearby, saw 26-year-old Daniel Shaull from Kansas on fire, parked her patrol car, went to her trunk and accidentally grabbed pepper spray used for riot control instead of the fire extinguisher.
The canister of pepper spray the officer used is red like many fire extinguishers.
Police said someone else, a motorist who had been driving by, did grab an actual fire extinguisher to help Shaull, but he kept running away.
“They (officer and motorist) attempted to get the young man to roll on the ground to put out the flames,” Portland Police Chief Rosie Sizer said. “He kept running away and was uncooperative. Eventually, additional cover units arrived, and they were able to get him on the ground and extinguish the flames.”http://www.katu.com/news/local/82970607.html

He needs to be fined for contributing to Global Warming by burning all that carbon-based material!
Barbecued moonbat. Gotta love it.

You win - Best comment of the day.
So let me get this straight. He doesn’t wear fur, but he kills HIMSELF to keep US from wearing fur??!?
Reminds me of the [fill in this blank with the “stuck on stupid group you prefer: pollacks, Aggies, Democrats, whatever] who came home after working late and caught his wife in bed with another dude.
The (_______) doesn’t say a word, he just walks over to the nightstand and pulls out a loaded revolver — which he puts to his OWN head.
His wife, sitting up in bed, screams “NO! Please don’t!”
To which he replies: “Shut up bitch! You’re NEXT!”
Pepper spray? Good.
Yeah I suspect so, wanted to commit suicide and take out the store with him but forgot about locks.

Good thinking L.C. What was the first clue?

Whoa! They must have some big-ass pepper spray canisters!
Note to self: behave when in Portland. And don’t set oneself on fire, even accidentally.
And I think he succeeded.
How much carbon credits did these martyr spend and how selfish: I could have bought the marshamallows and BBQ to save heat.
You don't say.
I know I’m a sicko, but I laughed out loud at your post!
Still laughing!
I have a burning desire to protest the unethical treatment of animals.
...
It is not clear if the man was running away because of the effects of the pepper spray.
Sizer said she’s been told by the Portland Fire Bureau that the pepper spray used was water based and was not an accelerant. She said it did not make matters worse but that the use of the spray was regrettable.
OMG, guy's on fire and here comes the police with a cannister of pepper spray! It's really hard to maintain my composure here.
