Las Vegas, Nevada. Federal Building. A Social Security recipient, upset
about a cut in benefits came into the building with a shotgun under his
coat. Before it was all over, a security guard was dead, a U.S. Marshall
was wounded, and the perp was dead.

Lots of people with no hope living on subsistence levels who might be dead
in six months are going to be wanting to fight the beast. Especially when
they get the letter telling them that their benefits have been reduced or
cancelled.

It's the next thing to receive a PC label. Just to insure that it doesn't
have a derogatory meaning, and therefore the people involved don't feel bad
about themselves.

You ought to at least try to get some important facts straight:

"Wicks (the gunman) filed a discrimination claim against Social Security
in 2008, alleging he was denied full benefits because of his race,
according to court papers. A federal judge ruled against him in September.

A law enforcement official said Wicks set fire to his residence before
the shooting, and surveillance video indicates he was a lone gunman with
no accomplices.

The deputy marshal and the security officer were taken to a hospital,
where the security officer, Stanley W. Cooper, died, said U.S. Marshals
spokesman Jeff Carter. Cooper, an employee of Akal Security, had been a
contracted court security officer with the U.S. marshals in Las Vegas
since 1994, Carter said."

1. It wasn't about a "cut" in his benefits.

2. He was upset about losing a court case.

3. He went off his rocker before the shootings, setting his residence on
fire.


Wicks likely was receiving a policeman's retirement, social security,
and pay from his retirement job as a "contracted court security
officer." Was he living at subsistence levels? Unknown, but unlikely.

Perhaps posters should have to score at least average on an IQ test
before being allow to make misinformed, moronic posts like Steve B's.
Wait...that would clear out loogy, justhate, BAR, flajim, Bob the
Krueger, and a few others.

Oh well.

Here's one readers view of the scenerio. Probably right on the mark too.
"His case had nothing to do with racial discrimination, He had moved
from California, where benefits are subsidized to cover a higher cost of
living, to Nevada, which has no subsidy. He was essentially upset over
being treated like every social security recipient in the state where he
resided. sarcasm Playing the race card failed, so naturally it was
time to grab a shotgun and get some justice! /sarcasm"

the shooting, and surveillance video indicates he was a lone gunman with
no accomplices.

hearsay

The deputy marshal and the security officer were taken to a hospital,
where the security officer, Stanley W. Cooper, died, said U.S. Marshals
spokesman Jeff Carter. Cooper, an employee of Akal Security, had been a
contracted court security officer with the U.S. marshals in Las Vegas

1. It wasn't about a "cut" in his benefits.

Oh really. What then?

2. He was upset about losing a court case.

Wouldn't you be?

3. He went off his rocker before the shootings, setting his residence on
fire.

Speculation on your part.

There is starting to be reports this was a guy who was known for extreme
racial prejudice toward er, um... "white people". Being this may have
been black on white hate crime, I am sure that aspect of the crime will
be ignored in the minority media though...

Other groups are seeing him for what he is. If he thinks it will draw

many here he is a simpleton. I don't have to post names. They are too
obvious.

Well, rec.boats really isn't much of a group for dicussion anymore.
Instead it is mostly a group for right-wing haters who seem intent on
trying to drive out any and all who are not a part of their borg-like
collective so they can discuss their crap without interference.

Imagine a usenet group dominated by morons like justhate, steve b,
krueger, flajim, bar, et cetera. Wait...no need to imagine...it's right
here.
