Clint Eastwood comes to mind, in one of the Dirty Harry flicks, "The Dead Pool." Posing undercover as a TV news cameraman, to a nutcase threatening to set himself on fire to get on the news: "Oh, we'll break out the weenies and the marshmallows, but we ain't gonna be filming you for the 11 o'clock news."

Obama needs to be impeached. Soon.

Society’s seams are popping.

I was thinking that. I guess we should get used to this as some just finally give up and send the only message they can.


Reporter: Sen. Reid, shouldn't we put this guy out immediately?

Sen. Reid: Why would we want to do that?

Impeachment is to personal, let the court of public opinion have him.

High capacity box of kitchen matches involved. Bright red ignition points (highly volatile) on each one. Striker plate on side of box (any of these could have been instantly fired up, one after the other! Also, no safety on devices. Flame was open with no fire guard once devices are set off.

Holy cats! No kidding! And there's not even a waiting period to buy a box of kitchen matches. Scary.

Just be glad THEY haven’t started banning the type of “high capacity cars” used in yesterday’s shooting death of a woman.

I’m sure the doctors are doing everything they can to keep him alive long to give a statement blaming republicans for his flaming demise.

Incidents like yesterday and today are just indicators of the underlying sickness in society

2 weeks ago it was the Naval shipyard guy.
