    Warning : Contains Reality Violence.

    Clay Duke, a 56-year-old man, entered a school-board meeting in Florida on Tuesday with a gun and took several members of the board hostage, unaware that the episode was being captured on film. He started by walking in and spray painting a "V" in a circle on the wall, (V For Vendetta?) after a brief discussion the shooting starts.

    The gunmen apparently missed each person he fired on. He later killed himself after being wounded by school board security.

    -1- Hard to believe he could miss at that distance and NOT be part of the LA Police Dept.

    -2- A dweeb that untalented coulda done more harm with a baseball bat than a gun.

    -3- Kudos to the guard for taking him to the ground, but the fact that the guy continued to return fire after 2 hits tells me the guard had a 9mm. Needs a .45 if he wants to STOP the guy he shoots instead of just piss 'em off. Some won't be cooperative enough to finish the job for ya.

    He'd of probably found it a little harder to 1) clear the room & 2) kill himself with a baseball bat.

    He seemed to know he was gonna die so he was on a mission. Lucky it was a complete failure, for the board.

    I'd like to add the courage of the bloke who tried to save the rest was fantastic. I could only hope to have the same courage if ever faced with that. All praise on him, under pressure.

    It was a girl, she hit him with her purse. I'm sure you'd have done the same. :)

    J/k... she had more balls than a lotta guys to go after an armed nutjob.

    I'm talkin about the bloke in the middle who said, let the others go, i'm the bloke you're after. The girl was brave too though I do agree.

    I stopped looking at the vid when I saw the puny gun and the intelligence he displayed while talking . This should be named "Fatso embarrasses himself whit a pistol" - not "Florida shooting" .

    True. I think you have to actually shoot someone other than yourself for it to be called a shooting. And to call it "Florida School Board Shooting", it seems that you would actually have to shoot someone on a Florida school board. Not that there is a Florida School Board, of course, as school boards are a county function.

    This should really be called "Bipolar Guy Commits Suicide By Cop."

    This isn't something new simply because it was a suicide by cop rather then an attack . In no way can you call it a massacre .

    From the video, it didn't look like a serious attempt.

    I've been shot at before, the first time when I was about twelve. At my age now, I can't see myself getting all upset over some dork blowing off a few rounds in my vicinity.
