    Mental case?

    http://www.myfoxdfw.com/story/23331962/boy-shot-in-jaw-at-dallas-apartment-complex#ixzz2e7p1rCxH

    Neighbors said the suspect, identified by police as 46-year-old Brian Cloninger, tried to drive away after the shooting, but his truck would not start. Then once he was arrested he began acting erratically and started banging his head against the back of the squad car.

    The neighbors said they don't know Cloninger and they don't believe he lives in the complex, but they saw him giving away fireworks to children on Monday.

    That's what I thought when I first read the story. It just sounded like he wasn't all there.

    A 46-year-old man is a WWII veteran?

    Nope. I was referencing a range of violence.

    Zaac's title could use a little tightening.

    D'oh! Now I get it. Thanks. I read the title but completely missed the meaning.
