finally, a getbigger who follows through with his threats
« on: August 10, 2018, 03:18:16 PM »
A guy even SF1900 would want to grab a beer with, since he "did something about it."

A political argument on Facebook led to a 44-year-old Florida man driving to the home of a stranger he had been arguing with and shooting him, according to a report.

Brian Sebring now faces felony charges of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and carrying a concealed gun.

Sebring told the Tampa Bay Times he "just snapped and let primal rage take over" when he left work early on Monday, went home to get his gun and headed to the home of Alex Stephens.

Sebring and Stephens, 46, had never met, though they live in the same neighbourhood.

"I'm not a bad guy," Sebring told the newspaper, "but I mean, this guy threatened to hurt my family, and I went off the deep end."

Sebring was arrested and has been released on a $9,500 US bond.

He also said he's the target of social media trolling.

"I ruined my life over this," Sebring said. "Now my mother is too afraid to leave the house, my sons are afraid to walk to school or church, all because of some keyboard gangsters."

Shot him in the ass LOL.  Fella must have been running away...

What’s sad is that they’re arguing about politicians who likely don’t even give a damn about them.

It’s odd that people defend politicians like it’s a family member.

Like all the people here who defend Trump. Talk about beta behavior. Defending someone who doesn’t even know or care about you.

It’s strange what politics does to people.

They also do it with their favorite football player/team, their favorite actors, and so on.

People are followers. It's what they do best. Watch any argument in public between two people and the rest either crowd around to watch or pretend not to see it and walk away politely. It's under such circumstances that a Hitler or a Milosevic can come to power. They told people what to like and people enjoyed being told.

The average person only contributes to their own survival and leaves nothing of lasting value to the community or the world at large. Trump, like other smart politicians, has surrounded himself with a phalanx of loyalists who are smarter and better-informed than him, and act as shock absorbers when he speaks his mind on camera or social media. What talking heads on the left don't understand is that far from being a liability for the President, Twitter is his greatest asset. It's how he keeps a personal channel open to his base that other Presidents didn't have or use, Obama included (only made his own Twitter like 1 year before leaving office, and rarely used it).

So the nut who did the shooting, now acting like the victim. Makes sense.  ::)
