This case reminds me of Gavin de Becker's account of the postal worker who (the media said) "suddenly" went besersk and "without warning" killed several co-workers. The media account was wrong, of course. The postal worker had shown anti-social signs for '''years''' before the incident. But everyone was afraid of the legal repercussions of dismissing him. I'll have to look it up, I have the book in a box somewhere. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] 09:39, 18 April 2007 (EDT)

The sad truth is that hind sight is 20-20. It's nearly impossible to tell the difference between a potential psycho and a harmless crank until it's too late. [[User:Czolgolz|Czolgolz]] 09:42, 18 April 2007 (EDT)
