  5. "Six men stay. Everyone else leave," the burly gunman said.

    Moments later, Ginger Littleton, a board member, returned to the room and swung a purse at him. She ended up on the ground after the two struggled. The gunman cursed her, but did not open fire and he let her leave the room.

    Someone was going to die, he said.

    Gunman fires at school board members


    The confrontation ended in the gunman identified as Duke calmly firing at the school officials, being wounded and, according to police, taking his own life.

    At first, school board members and Superintendent Bill Husfelt tried to reason with Duke, who had a criminal record. They talked about possibly finding a job for Duke's wife or looking into the case.

    Husfelt told the gunman that he likely signed the termination papers, but didn't recall the circumstances.

    "I'm the one who signed the papers," Husfelt. "Let them go," he said referring to the school board members.

    At one point, Husfelt said, "I don't want anybody to get hurt. I've got a feeling that what you want, is you want the cops to come in and kill you because you are mad. Because you said you are going to die."

    "But why? This isn't worth it," the superintendent told him. "This is a problem."

    The gunman then pointed the pistol at the official.

    "Please don't. Please don't. Please," Husfelt said.

    The gunman opened fire at Husfelt and school board members. He missed them all, even though he was at close range, said Lee Stafford, director of student services of Bay District Schools. Duke said, "I'm going to kill [unintelligible]," while he fired.

    Mike Jones, chief of security for the school system and a retired police officer, exchanged fire with Duke, who was wounded and rolled to the ground. Duke turned his gun on himself, dying of a fatal gunshot to the head, authorities said. Husfelt called Jones a "hero."

    The gunman was declared dead at a local hospital.

    Police and school officials were left to piece together what happened.

    The superintendent said he wanted to protect the school board members, but Duke did not want to talk.

    The investigation includes Duke's assertions that his wife had been terminated by the school district. Police were talking with Duke's wife, Becker said.

    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..."


    "We are absolutely in state of shock," said Stafford. "I was in the third floor and we were watching the live feed, and first we thought it was a drill. But the more that you watched it, we realized this was an actual incident and emergency situation."

    His favorite quotation: "You want the truth? You can't handle the truth," from the movie "A Few Good Men."

    The gunman was declared dead at a local hospital. An autopsy is expected Wednesday.

    Husfelt told reporters that Duke had almost a smile on his face. "He made up his mind. You could tell he was going to die."

    The superintendent said he wanted to protect the school board members, but Duke did not want to talk.

  7. Due to the graphic nature of this story, we feel it’s necessary to reveal up front that none of the gunman’s targets in this video were actually hit. The scene unfolded Tuesday at the Bay County School Board meeting in Panama City, Florida. The gunman has been identified as Clay Duke, who told board members he was upset over sales taxes and the apparent firing of his wife. During a drawn out back-and-forth dispute with school board members, he said someone was going to die. Ultimately that someone was Duke, wounded by a security guard’s bullet, but killed by a self-inflicted gunshot to the head.

  8. Balckieas,
    Yule kibosile alitumia utalaam mzuri wa kuendeleza conversation na gunman huku wakivuta muda Police waje. So muda wote huo ujue tayari Police na security wa hapo shuleni walikuwa wameshajipanga na walikuwa wanasubiri jamaa akianza kurusha risasi nao wanaingia.

    Wangemchunia jamaa na mahasira y ake angewaua wote. Sasa unaona aliekufa ni gunman tu.

  9. Wataalamu wanadai jamaa alikuwa kachoka na maisha na alikuwa anatafuta namna ya kujiua.
    ndiyo maana alipiga risasi na kuwakosa wale maofisa wa shule. Ndiyomaana pia hakumuua yule mama aiyetaka kumpora bastola. Wataalamu wanadai alikuwa anatishia kuua ili polisi wamuue. wapo watu ambao wakitaka kufa wanaenda kuuwa wenzao ili polisi wamshughulikie. ndio maana alitanguliza kusema leo atakufa mtu hapa.

    Mtumaini yetu tusiyaweke kwenye serikali. Matumainiyetu tuyaweke kwa Mungu nakisha tufanye kazi kwabidii.

  10. Angalia Mtu mweusi alikuwa ni wakwanza kutimua. Mtu mweusi anajua hatari kweli!!!! Yaani kabla watu wengine hawajaelewa mtu mweusi alikuwa anatimua vumbi kata kumi na nne mbele

  11. Nyie wewe unayesema kuwa hao wengine walikuwa wajinga sio hivyo? Kwa watu kama hawa ni lazima utumie PSYCHIOLOGY kuna kitu kinaitwa "Theraupetic Communication." Kama mtu mwingine alivyokwisha sema wao waliendelea kumuongelesha taratibu wakijua kuwa huku police wanajiandaa. Na ndo maana ulikuwa unaona na yeye anageuka nyuma mara kwa mara. Alijua kuwa akifanya kitu cha kuanza kufyatua risasi wanaye. Kwa hiyo pale wasingemjia juu. Hii ndo njia ya kudili na watu kama hawa.
