'I enjoy watching people beg for their life,' McKinney shooter Patrick Sharp told Facebook friend
Dallas Morning News ^ | 2010-08-18 | Matthew Haag

A Georgia teenager says that less than an hour before Patrick Sharp tried to set off a massacre outside the McKinney police headquarters, he contacted her online.

"Killers like to share their thoughts, seek attention," read a message the girl says Sharp sent her Tuesday morning on Facebook.

"I like to scare people. I enjoy watching people beg for their life. I like watching them drown. When they take their last breath, oh it's amazing."

The short letter the girl shared with The Dallas Morning News is the first glimpse into what might have led Sharp to try to commit mass murder.

In it, he didn't mention McKinney police or whom he planned to attack, but he told the girl he might have mental health issues.

"I have alot of [stuff] wrong with me, but didn't seek help," he told the girl, who is not being identified. "I don't take meds."

Looks like this guy had problems, and knew he had problems. But, no one took him seriously until it was too late.

FRiends, there will be many more of these nuts in the years to come.

It is wise to always be armed when leaving the house.

He killed himself when he realized what a shitty shot he was.

How long before the 0bot media say
they ‘think’ he ‘might’ have been ‘thinking’ about joining the TP?

It’s unfortunate he let his issues get that far and didn’t seek help. He obviously knew he wasn’t thinking right. At least he only killed himself.

I know suicide is a terrible thing, but if someone is bent on offing themselves I wish they would do it in a way that doesn’t put other people in danger or create a mess that someone else has to clean up. That’s just plain inconsiderate.

What a loser wacko. Can’t even plan his own death right.

Didn’t this guy have a roommate that lived with him for about four years? Didn’t he say he never noticed anything wrong with him? Wow. Unbelievable.

Thanks for the Ping.

I was sure that it was a suicide by cop thing.

Kind of odd though that his stated fantasy was to kill people but he (at least in this case) shot a lot of ammo and failed to hit even one person.

I think he was actually afraid to kill and was also afraid to live; so he committed this bazaar suicide.

Not his fault, he bought surplus ammo from the "A-Team" bad guys prop department. It never hits the good guy.

I wonder the mentality of the roommate. I also wonder about the teenage girl he was chatting with. Do her parents know or care?

He definitely had problems alright!

“He went on to describe what would be his last hours alive.

“My last meal was White Castle cheeseburgers and a Dr Pepper,” he wrote.”

Anyone who selects that for what he has planned to be his last meal on Earth has to have a warped mind.
