SEMINOLE, Fla. -- A man was arrested after trying to steal a weapon from a gun shop so he could "take some action and rescue Terri Schiavo," authorities said.
Michael W. Mitchell, of Rockford, Ill., entered Randall's Firearms Inc. in Seminole just before 6 p.m. Thursday with a box cutter and tried to steal a gun, said Marianne Pasha, a spokeswoman for the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office.
Mitchell, 50, told deputies he wanted to "take some action and rescue Terri Schiavo" after he visited the Pinellas Park hospice where she lives, Pasha said.

Too bad for Michael W. Mitchell, but society will have its Aztec sacrifice in spite of his efforts.

Me Neither. But this doesn't help Terri it only makes us who want her to live look like nuts! No, it doesn't.
Maybe he is a nut. Maybe he is just frustrated like the rest of us. If he is the only one of the hundreds or thousands who show their support, then it shows that he doesn't handle frustration very well. That's all. Don't read more into it than that.

Floridians own at least ONE gun. Floridia is full of displaced NorthEasterners and Seniors who don't own guns. Maybe on the NorthWest Coast they tend to own more guns.
