http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D98O0FKG2&show_article=1 Thank goodness only one guard was wounded and a bystander hurt by shattered glass. It had the potential to be much worse. James Von Brunn has been a white supremacist since at least the 1980s according to reports and is a member of Mensa. Goes to show that high intelligence is no indicator of any sort of sense.
The guard give his life to save others, at least he engaged and didn't run away like most other guard would
The guard really was a hero. The museum was full of visitors, including many children. It could have been much, much worse if not for Stephen Johns and the other guards. Von Brunn has survived so far and has been charged with his hateful crimes. I hope he lives to go to trial and and pays for what he has done.
No, but the need to join Mensa can be an indicator of an inferiority complex. QED. All of a sudden, the death penalty looks good again.
he walked in and after being greeted by the guard shot him- what a waste of space.. the guards mom seemed like a class act in an interview.. mensa, I've never taken the test is it even hard? probably full of vain people
Never looked better. This is why I like the death penalty. For open/closed cases like this. I don't care if he is 88 years old. You take someone's life in that manner, you have forfeited your own.
Let's not go down that route of discussion, it's rather well-trodden. Yes, the death penalty looks attractive, but so do a lot of things that are dangerous and prone to irreversible mistakes - Kate Moss, the Walther WA 2000 and the Koenigsegg CCXR are good examples. Just because the man is a contemptible stain on humanity's underwear doesn't mean he should be denied the right to rot in jail for the rest of his miserable existence.
Yeah, I know, I know... just because something feels good doesn't mean we ought to do it. An obscure end in prison is probably a more fitting punishment.
