HERE WE GO, ANOTHER RIDE DOWN CRAZY LANE

Apparently, the guy that shot Dimebag in the head 4 times was once a big fan of Pantera, then he was going to sue them for "stealing his identity" and had hand copied lyrics of Pantera songs he claimed to be his own offered as" proof". The rest of this can be read at this CNN blurb.
So, let's all act surprised, he was a nut job. There will be no trial, because a policeman "shotgunned" him at the scene of the crime. He apparently had a "hostage " in a headlock who was able to "duck" out of the way so the cop could shotgun him (must've been a slug) and there you have it...gun instrumental in violent crime, shotgun instrumental in ending violent crime. Bartcop wonders if everyone in the club was armed what would have happened...and that to me, is a silly notion. Even if I had been there and armed, I would have done nothing unless I had a clean shot or that crazy fuck turned his gun on me. I give that cop a high high five for taking this nut job out, and with a shotgun...way to go! That's marksmanship buddy.
The notion that armed people will bust out the guns and start firing willy-nilly is stupid on the face of it, guns are not cans of bug spray, and the overwhelming majority of people know that. For the anti gun lobby in this country to have any meaningful impact (no pun intended) they need a level headed spokesman, not some victim of a gun related violent crime who has found a "calling" based on their misfortune.
But that's enough about that for now...except, I have a question: Where's Vang in the news?
