Try living in a city that had people slam two jetliners into your tallest landmarks, killing thousands, and subsequently have the National Guard with M-16s everywhere, subway and landmark closings every few days on terrorist threats, and being a world-recognized target as an icon of American capitalism. Then you might be on edge when **** like this happens, too.

If so it seems like a pretty idiotic way to protest about his stance on the issue. Just confirms everything he was saying, no? Oh well ... criminals are dumb.If I'm posting here then Counterglow must be down.

Dang! Give Boris a break! A guy is upset because part of his city gov't gets gunned down. If I lived in New York I would be paranoid as hell also. What other city has had 2000 people murdered and the murders organization still around. Wouldn't you be a little gun shy? Hussein's kids killed yesterday and New York officials murdered today and the murderer still at large. No he's just paranoid...bullsh1t. I'd be in a foul mood to."I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic. We should stand up and say we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration." - Hillary Clinton, 2003

The gunman had been challenging him to the seat, but by all reports had given up on that.
Apparently, he walked in with the councilman, past the security checkpoint, but not through the metal detector, since government officials (and their guests?) don't have to go through. At least they didn't -- that's been changed, effective immediately.No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

Anyway, this sucks.But a guy jumped of the building next to my house a couple of days ago, so, somehow, I am not shocked.
I passed your house and saw medics and police and ****, and wondered what gives.
I thought you were finally arrested for being a crazy communist.
