I wouldn't break out the Champagne just yet. I don't see how this can be a good thing. Alive, he was what he was. Dead, he is a martyr for his holy cause. In jail for something he did, yes. Killed like this, not so good. In the short term, yes. Long term, I'd rather have him alive.

Exactly. I forget the guys name, but that is exactly what happened to the white supremacist guy who robbed the Brinks truck and hid on an island in Washington before a long standoff with police. To my knowledge, there are ceremonies, "holidays" and stuff honoring the guy as a martyr. Pretty strange stuff.

Exclamation in Citrus Heights???!!

omg

iwrock and his family live in that very town, and he and I and they all go to our Mercedes mechanic who has his shop in the very next town over.

I have driven through Citrus Heights dozens of times and it looked like a normal unobtrusive white neighborhood to me.

I had no idea of this. I bet the neighbors are really shocked and horrified at this gun murder.

I am, and I live about 50 miles from there.
