Hes got like bunkers and landmines built on his property and he has just gone crazy and started shooting cops and he is held up at his friggin military compound of a house and he is tellin the cops to bring out their best snipers. There was just a crazy explosion out there too. You guys here about this yet?

    I know there is a website where you can listen to police scanners, I'll see if I can get it to listen to the right spot then post a link.
    Btw is this guy in the middle of town or out in the country where he can't hurt to many people if his house explodes?

    Well he surrendered about an hour ago. Yeah, he shot a couple Sheriffs and stole one of their trucks and fled to his house. He lives outside of town out west but he was shooting at anyone who would drive by. He had a big piece of land and when I was a kid everyone always said he had land mines in his field, turns out he actually might. I heard some of his messages over the CB Radio and he was telling them to come get him but watch out, the closer you get the worse it will be. He also told them to bring in their best sniper to put him out of his misery. He has like underground bunkers and tunnels and I really thought he was gonna hold off till the end but I think he got severly burned from a fire. They said the explosion I saw way over here at my house was from a tank. Nobody can get close enough to see but thats crazy if they had to bring in a tank. He was shooting at the friggin helicopters with a rifle, hes crazy. He is like mad at the government or something. There has been an uppside down American flag raised above his house since I can remember.

    Waaaaiiit a ****ing second I have seen that place.

    My aunt and uncle have a ranch spreading across half of Goldsmith and half of Notrees, and once when I was out there we passed by it.

    When you said bunker thats what I thought of and when you said the bit about the flag that confirmed it.

    Yes its a ****ing bunker, not a tornado-shelter-turned-bunker, and its not completely underground either, its like a ****ing fortress within a man made hill. I specifically remember my aunt talking about how he was mad at the government and had all of these stockpiled weapons in his bunker.

    Holy ****... I should ask my cousin about it...

    Yeah, thats him. This guy is crazy.

    The thing is, alot of people here in Texas want to secede from the USA. We are the only state that can do that and honestly, I think it would be cool. Obama has screwed alot of crap up for us here in west Texas.

    I honestly don't know what that means unless you meant liberal. I just think it would be sweet to be our own country and not deal with him.
