Yeah, I think Cluggy lives in the metromess somewhere. Not in the same area, I don't think..
That's why I live in the town of Wichita Falls, and not in that jungle down there in DFW.

I'm wondering if the "Shooter" was a freshly fired "driver" and started with the guy that let him go...and just started shooting at drivers that still held their jobs, on his way to hell.
Pity what happened to the United Vanlines driver. :tears::tears:

A while back, there were several shootings around the Jacksonville, FL area, more recently, I believe there was something going on around Columbus, OH. I don't know if it's road rage as such. Don't be surprised if there is more of it as the economy gets worse. There are men that can't handle it, and feel the need to strike out and anyone that's handy. I suspect that might be more at the bottom of this than anything else.
You'd like to say, "Why did he have to pick on truck drivers", but who would we suggest he choose for his own personal relief?

About 2 PM today I saw 3 DPS cars stop a brown 1/2 ton extended cab ford pickup in Canton which is just east of Dallas. I was wondering why one bear had followed me for about 20 miles, then at the on ramp at hwy 34, the other two pulled onto I-20, the first turned his lights on and passed me, and they made the stop about 1/2 mile in front of me. Blocked the whole roadway for about 5 minutes. Pulled the guy out with what appeared to be AR-15's and Shotguns and put him over the hood of the first patrol car, frisked him, then let the traffic go by.
Sure wish I could have sat there a few more minutes!!

Himself.

Latest thing I've seen on the shootings is that the suspect is a former Utah State Trooper. He resigned from the state police for personal issues, and is wanted in Texas for robbery and burglary.
