WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. -- A gunman dressed in suit and tie killed one person at a Wendy's restaurant at lunchtime Monday, and shot four others before killing himself, police said.

Sheesh, these days you might as well hang out at some funeral home lounge and save the transportation costs.

Time for Old Sparky in Starke, Florida for ALL these killers.

If flames shoot out of their ears, so much the better.

First some teens brutally kill parents and two little brothers. Then ELF burn down environmentally green houses. And this freak at Wendy’s. And finally a masked gunman at yet another college campus. Throw in the daily drunk illegals running down innocent families and Islamic terrorists plotting to take over the world. I simply don’t know what we’re coming to.

the dead person (shot point blank in the back with a 9mm) was a 42 year old palm beach county fire rescue lieutenant who had walked back into the restaurant to get a toy for his 4 year old child who was waiting in the car in the parking lot with the victim’s wife. he was the father of 4 other children.

the shooter was a haitian landscape worker who killed himself after shooting the four victims.

If he’s a landscape worker, why’d he get all cleaned up prior to the shooting? What kind of person would want to get all cleaned up before killing people?
