He said "LEGALIZE IT!!!"

 

He's obviously excited about Obamacare and wants to be one of the first to proof-test the system. :ssmokeit:

 

Maybe it was the husband of the woman that rammed into the gate yesterday

 

I'd rather crazy asses did this than shoot up a bunch of people... Who fucking goes to malls anymore?

 

WTF??
What is a national mall?

 

Sometimes I take my two year old to malls because he finds them fun.

Anyways, yea... when ever there are mass shootings I always say "why can't these people just kill themselves, even if they wanna do it publicly?"-- so, yeah, would much prefer this.

Lt. Pamela Smith of the U.S. Park Police said she was unaware whether he carried signs or had articulated a cause. One witness, Katy Scheflen, said that she saw a tripod set up near the man but that she did not hear him say anything intelligible before he set himself on fire. It was unclear whether the man was filming the incident.

 

What happened to the corpse?

Lots of homeless to feed in DC. Can't waste any meat.

 

there is so much wrong with the responses in this thread that i am appalled...

cant feel sorry for the guy though those rich big cats think they can do anything.

edit: how did i know he was rich? they are the only ones that would waste gas by poring it on them self.
