I didn't watch your video because it was taking too long to load, so I don't know if they covered this part of the story or not....

The man's mother described him as "desperately mentally ill," said he had been living in the woods and added that a Skagit County sheriff's deputy he's accused of killing had tried to help the family for years.

State Department of Corrections officials identified the gunman in Tuesday's deadly spree as Isaac Zamora, 28, who had just served a six-month jail sentence for drug possession in Skagit County, in northwest Washington. Less than three hours after the violence began, Zamora surrendered at a sheriff's office. Two people were wounded...
So we have a mentally ill, druggie, ex-convict. Sounds like the kind of person that is the reason that I got my concealed carry permit for.

It also sounds to me like the officer that was killed, since he knew the family and had tried to help before, might not have been as careful as other officers would have been since he was so close to the people involved.

Since it comes from England and the BBC it takes a while; also, you don't really want it in your computer because it prolly leaks oil, too.
