Here's how my Friday morning went...

http://www.klkntv.com/story/22418308...aler-employees

I was the first person to have contact with this guy when he initially came in to our service department. I sat him at my desk after looking at his car, (a panel had come off the back of his passenger seat) and proceeded to look up his info. He only purchased a major mechanical contract, therefore, the repair would not be covered. He starts cussing at me in a rather loud voice and my Service director (seen in video talking to police) steps over and escorts the guy onto the drive, the next thing you know, out comes the 45. The guy pulls back the slide, releases it, and sticks it in my bosses face while saying he would shoot us all.
Yeah, I think everyone has a right to own a gun.

Holy crap! That could've been real bad in the blink of an eye. Sheesh! All that over a minor repair that wasn't covered in the first place. Something tells me this 67 year old asshole is going to prison, one can only hope.

Yeah, that was some scary shit, never had anything like that happen to me. I'm still thinking what might have happened and what I would/could have done.

Run like hell and hope he doesn't shoot you in the back? That is some real crazy shit.

I really, really hope they make the felony stick. No more guns for that asshole.

Me too, I hope they don't give him a slap on the wrist, we don't need him coming back with his spare.

The more I think about it? The more pissed off I get. This guy took from you something very precious and also ordinary, the simple feeling of well being and security at your place of employment. The terrorism charge is an apt one because this unbalanced and sick man did terrorize all of you there by threatening your lives in a fit of anger. There is no way this person should ever be allowed a weapon for the rest of his sad life.
I can't put myself in your shoes but I would be at least writing a letter to the judge urging that this individual be disarmed forever as a condition of his sentence or plea bargain.

I will admit, I've felt like putting a bullet in my own head after about 10 hours of the contemporary country music we have to listen to all day long, I swear the playlist is like 15 songs.

Oh, he's being tried in the press by that murderer's defense team as we speak.
