People like this are why we carry...

Its funny, but its not at the same time. This is quite a story and thankfully no one was hurt very badly before he was caught (else it wouldnt be funny).

Guy has serious mental issues.

[E4 No More]

Mental issues that would have been corrected with the judicious application of a dose of lead had one of the victims been carrying.

[Guest 6.8 AR]

The only mental issue he has is being a criminal, and yes, I wish someone was carrying so he had that dose of lead.

[Grunt67]

I'm surprised this fool has survived as long as he has. But, some of these types just seem to lead a charmed life.

[Guest 6.8 AR]

Yeh, he was just a harmless hippie until he got rid of the ponytail and went bald.

[Jonnin]

heh, he seemed rational to me. Pretty orderly spree: steal a gun, rob someone, hit up wallyworld for some ammo, rob someone else, better change your look so you can't be ID'd by anyone, and so on.

Its amazing to me that here in TN someone could do all that and not one victim was armed, to be sure. We have a pretty good rate, nearly 10%. He was due to encounter an armed victim.

They did not say but I suspect some good drugs may have been a factor.

I am not all that amazed he evaded capture for a bit. I can't see how anyone is ever caught unless its red handed, to be honest. Most video/camera of the suspects is of the lowest quality. Often the vehicles involved do not belong to the thug at hand. DNA and fingerprints are tested against a small database (compared to the size of the population of the USA). That we ever catch anyone except the most idiotic criminals is truly amazing to me.

Wait, he broke into a haunted house and left with a taser, revolver and shotgun????

Thats what i still havent figured out.

[bonzii34]

Sounds like they left out the gun store he broke into?

Or the owner/staff of the haunted house had them stashed somewhere on site.

I mean it was a haunted house, and ill tell ya nothing would scare me more than a shotgun pointed at my face

[Ramjo]

Holy crap! Did he hate waiting that bad???

[hipower]

Ya think maybe some drugs were involved here somewhere along the line? I mean...found in a pool of water with a tap up his nose????
