For someone his age, can't he just leave the rebellion to the teenagers?

He may have had some problems but he had a point.

A biography on Duke's Facebook page reads: "My Testament: Some people (the government sponsored media) will say I was evil, a monster (V)... no... I was just born poor in a country where the Wealthy manipulate, use, abuse, and economically enslave 95% of the population. Rich Republicans, Rich Democrats... same-same... rich... they take turns fleecing us... our few dollars... pyramiding the wealth for themselves. The 95%... the us, in US of A, are the neo slaves of the Global South. Our Masters, the Wealthy, do, as they like to us..."

Don't look at us. We didn't make him.

[funny] I so understand though, I was always thinking of a way to spice up school board meetings [/funny]
[serious] Definitely unhealthy in the brain though, I saw this on the news, it saddens me that some people just can't control themselves when a seed like that is planted. you let it grow and what happens.

ETR3, he amy have a point but that is the bane of capitalism, there is always a higher class, and a really low class that thinks it deserves to be higher on the food chain
[/serious]

EDIT: found this comment on his page.

There is a small measure of hilarity in almost every tragedy.

It is still the tragic waste of a life and something that may have been avoided....had he allowed the authorities to intervene, which he clearly didn't.

Saw that video this morning. Unreal, and what a blessing that he missed them all, even a point-blank range.

The "V" in a red circle, a logo that is used in the movie "V for Vendetta."

The film is about "a shadowy freedom fighter known only as "V" who uses terrorist tactics to fight against his totalitarian society.

You never saw me on the police firing range...hardly ever missed the centre of the toso but can't honestly say if I would have been as accurate in a 'live fire' situation

Yes. The protagonist ran around in a Guy Fawkes mask if I recall.

We've had some heated city council meetings. Lot of homeowners got mad that the city changed their status to allow a commercial building on a corner...old man went in there and attacked them with a baseball bat. Now our offcials sit behind bullet proof glass.......course knowing most sell out to self interest I'm surprised someone hasn't shot them.

Yes, I've seen the movie quite a few times, that's why I asked what's with the V sign.
