One of the stupid fucking comments he made during his "manifesto" was something along the lines of " no matter what I do I'm always the bad guy". Really you fucking POS?

This is so fucked up. Just an innocent, elderly man walking home with groceries in hand, shot in the head by this sick piece of scum. Supposedly all over some relationship drama....

The guy got out of his car, pulled a gun on an old man on the sidewalk and just shot him. What the fuck is going on.
