Yes, hard to tell the ones who are just good at debate and argument and the kooks... usually the kooks will threaten you with death before they attempt it though--beware of death threats! Those making such threats should really be removed and isolated as soon as possible... but, if you give such authority to people--they soon become "over-reactors" and "victimizers" themselves and use such power just to get rid of those who disagree with them-- a very vicious circle...

Warmest regards,

See below. If you go to the thread you can read that this nutcase is
still posting from various locations and is apparently proud of what he
did.


Arguments on Internet message boards are nothing new, and often are
a central component. But in San Diego, California an argument turned
deadly on 25 May 2005, resulting in two murders, and two other
attempted homicides.

"We've always had a lot of arguments and disputes on this board, but
nothing like this, and I really don't think anyone saw it coming,"
said Radley Pingay, administrator of pirate969.org, in an email
response.

"Bruce was always a little hostile, but so many people are like that
online, it's hard to tell what's real and what's just shenanigans."
Bruce is not only the username of the suspect in the double
homicide, but is also his first name.

The online argument started in a thread (link) discussing a local
band promoter. Bruce Pastuer, now wanted on two counts of homicide
and two counts of assault with a deadly weapon, was one of the
participants in the discussion.

Apparently two other board members and Pastuer exchanged insults, at
which point Pastuer drove to the home of the two victims at
approximately 3:00PM, and shot them both with a borrowed 12 gauge
shotgun. The police have not recovered the weapon, and the names of
the two victims have not been released pending notification of their
relatives.

In the course of the shooting, two neighbors came to investigate,
and Pastuer reportedly fired at them as well. His location is
unknown, and anyone with information is requested to contact the San
Diego Police Department (link).


Addendum: This guy Bruce is still posting to the site!
