Hostages in DC
Anyone hear about the guy who took three hostages at the Discovery HQ yesterday?? He wanted some demands met and he took 3 people hostage. Sad isn't it? He ended up dieing from a sniper because he aimed his gun at one of the hostages who was trying to escape. Was a fake gun to. I don't think he was going to kill anyone.
The compnay I work for was next door. You can hear/see their story here

yeah well you dont threaten peoples lives like that, and no one knew the gun was fake.. and he took the hostages becasue he thought the discovery channel was promoting "over population' and that they need to have shows that promoted human sterilization. thats a little extreme i think

Some poeple are just crazy.
And if you are going to hold a hostage with a gun, you should know there is some war-hardened ex-marine police sniper that wakes up waiting to shoot someone again, that will take your head off without losing sleep.
Beavis and Buttheads rule applies - You gotta have stuff that sucks to have stuff thats cool.
The police here in Edmonton have shot a few guys over the years too.
