Just heard about this on the radio...Silver Spring.

Re: Possible Hostage Situation, Shots Fired at Discovery Channel Headquarters
 

Damn. Hopefully the cops can get in there and disarm this guy before some bad shit happens.

Re: Possible Hostage Situation, Shots Fired at Discovery Channel Headquarters
 

It's a block away from my apartment. I had some stuff really early this morning at work, so I came home around lunch time. I can hear the sirens from my balcony.

Wow. Lunatics R' Us.

When irrational people start threatening deadly force, it can get scary. I hope everyone makes it out safe.

Looks like he's had it out for Discovery for a while...

Re: Possible Hostage Situation, Shots Fired at Discovery Channel Headquarters
 

From reading his demands it looks like he views the human populace as a disease, evidenced by his incessant demand for people to stop procreating. This probably means he's not afraid to take lives if he feels like it. Hopefully this situation can get resolved without any lives being taken, it'd be a shame if somebody died as a result of this nutjob's wacky ideas about how to save Earth.

Maybe the police can point out the fact that it should have started with him and that he should lead by example. We definitly don't need any more nut cases in society.

(Carnack say.... "man lost his job, car repoed, can't pay rent.") I'll throw in girl friend left him and he snapped. Isn't there a country song for this?

It would be nice if for once a shooter/bomber didn't blow anything up and in turn didn't shoot anyone. Hopefully he's the type of crazy that wants to be heard and in turn feels he can't do that if he's dead.

Re: Possible Hostage Situation, Shots Fired at Discovery Channel Headquarters
 

Just took a walk and checked it out. What a zoo. People everywhere. The perimeter the police set up starts about 50 steps from the front of my building. Saw guys in full swat. I hope they get this asshole without anyone getting hurt. Friggin nut job.

Re: Possible Hostage Situation, Shots Fired at Discovery Channel Headquarters
 

Apparently he wants to talk to Discovery Executives. Big surprise.

Re: Possible Hostage Situation, Shots Fired at Discovery Channel Headquarters
 

i'm at work about a block away.


my call is he gets dragged out in an hour or so, no casualties or damage.


*crosses fingers*

*crosses fingers*[/quote]Let's sure hope so. As others have said, based on his ramblings it seems like he doesn't really value human life at all.

It also says an explosive device did go off...

Re: Possible Hostage Situation, Shots Fired at Discovery Channel Headquarters
 

Thank God. I just don't understand people who pull this type of crap. Honestly, and no offense to anyone here, but terrorism makes more sense to me. As screwed up as that sounds.

I mean if you're really that pissed, do your thing and move on.

Re: Possible Hostage Situation, Shots Fired at Discovery Channel Headquarters
 

Did he really think the Discovery Channel would give in to his demands? I guess all those years of people ignoring him took him to this point. I'm glad it's over and nobody innocent got hurt.

Yeah, instead of Luke Skywalker and Duke he has pics of Cobra Commander, Darth Vader, and the Emperor. Seems like he identifies with the bad guys.

Way to make rush hour traffic worse asshole. If the cops hadn't shot him I sure as shit would have.

I think Al Gore insighted this from all the BS he has spread about global warming. His hate talk provokes this kind of stuff.
