Fulton Co. Judge shot and killed in courthouse shooting (BREAKING Fri 9A)
WAGA-TV/WSB-TV Atlanta | 3.11.05

Posted on 03/11/2005 6:39:06 AM PST by mhking

This is a breaking news situation.

A man entered a courtroom in the Fulton County Courthouse this morning and shot a Fulton County Sheriff's deputy, a clerk and a judge; there are reports from both WSB and WAGA, the judge is deceased.

The perp has carjacked multiple vehicles -- now on his third -- and is still at large.

I've just come from downtown Atlanta, and the city is a madhouse.

You nailed it; now comes up as:

"Nobody by that name."

Didn't see it, don't want to know what was said, just glad the mods take care of the scum. One of the reasons I'm a monthly contributor.

There are many blacks in Atlanta - why not focus the search on the complexion that actually matters? If they were after a white guy, I would hope that they would state if he had a pale or dark complexion.

Some folks mistake further information for PC. Give me as much info as you can, is what I say...

Hopefully, not leaving another dead body in his wake. Scarey senario! Is the shooter still armed?? Heard they found a gun outside the courthouse.

If you want to know, I've got it (it was sent to me), and yes, it was pretty damn vile.

My daughter got by with having her hubby pump her gas when they first married. 4 kids later and several years - it no lnger works.

My wife doesnt' mind pumping her own gas, but whenever I'm in her car, I 'get' to do her windows. :) Somehow when we're in my car, I get to pump and squegee. OTOH, she irons my shirts and makes me scambled eggs. (I can do the latter, not so hot at the former)

Absolutely. I think we ought to know as much as possible (so we can stay out of this maniac's way.) Describe it any way you please, just give me all the info you have.

PC has no place in this.

You are the one bringing PC into this. On the radio, he is described as a black male with medium complexion. You have been corrected many times - why do you continue on your witch hunt?

Wow! He is a big boy! Ours are little. They are both about 11 pounds, but Hello Kitty is very stocky with a short body so she looks chubby. Lucky is some kind of oriental breed and very long and lean.

Most likely. There was a dead deputy outside. The found gun may have been his, or it may have been from the first one, ditched in favor of the one from the dead deputy.

Oh, I believe you, I'll take your, and the mods, and others, judgement on it.

Like I said, good riddance to that nonsense.

"I have no idea if this is true or not. My father was a big BSer. But it's a great story."

LOL. One time my dad was in the middle of a yarn, and someone said the story wasn't true. We all looked at the guy like he was from another planet.

Of course the story wasn't true. My dad was telling it.

Was your dad Irish, by chance?

Had a feeling it was. Only visited there a couple of times when I was real small, back in late '50s early '60s.

Can you send that my way king...been a stalker here for a little while and keep hearing about trolls but have never seen one in my limited time here. I am just curious as to what one could actually have to contribute to this situation?

I suspect he's out of ammo.

Off to run some errands. Got "friends" at hand. Doubt if he's anywhere near here, but you never know. "Be Prepared", and all that.
