I'm not familiar with this Vegan kid but he managed to 'convince me' that he was going to carry through with this steakhouse threat.
And then I read one of the earlier comments recommending that someone should report this dude before he annihilated the whole dam steakhouse.
So I decided to give that a try and did some 'googling' to see what could be done if someone threatened on the net to do something similar to a terrorist act such as killing a bunch of diners in a steakhouse.
And "WOW!" what a mess that turned out to be!
As per the recommendation on some website, I called an office in Washington, DC, and had to sit through a long winded message regarding 'stuff' that was completely off subject.
But I persisted and within 5 minutes a live voice came on the phone who introduced himself as an FBI agent and immediately asked me to identify myself.
I did as requested and started to mention the 'problem' but it was apparent that the agent could not hear me (although I could hear him perfectly) and stated that he would hang up if I did not respond.
And he did in fact .... hang up.
So I called back once again and after listening to a long recording once again .... an operator came on to direct me to the proper authority only to inform me that my complaint would have to be directed to the local police station.
And without any further word... she hung up.
I tried once again as recommended by another 'crisis reporting' website only to be told that I would have to call back tomorrow between 8 to 5.
SO.... being the good citizen that I pretend to be .... I placed a call to the local police department and once again sat through a long recording of needless information until a real live person came on the line.
I managed to give her a brief explanation of this life threatening situation only to be told that I would have to call the police jurisdiction in which the 'situation' occurred.
And she also immediately hung up.
By this time I thought that it was pretty damn funny and pretty damn stupid at the same time.........
SO ... I called a long time friend who is a Federal Marshal (Nope! Not Wyatt Erp!]) who listened intently and was concerned and I should be hearing more later today.
During all this phone calling, I did learn something important ......
If you are considering 'suicide', you have to call a different number!
So have a pen and paper handy.
And a comfortable place to sit in while listening to a bunch of unrelated recordings only to eventually discover that you have called the wrong number and have to call someplace else.
No matter whom or where you call ...... it's the wrong number!
Or if could be the correct number but ...... you have to call tomorrow!
