The gunman, Clay Duke sat through much of the Bay Districts Schools board meeting quietly. It was only towards the end of that meeting when citizens were able to bring up issues that he approached the bench and spray painted a large circle with the letter "V" in the center on the wall. He then pulled a gun and ordered everyone out except six school board members. Duke stood at close range of the superintendent and the other board members to rant about his anger over the firing of his wife, a former school teacher and taxes.
Here it is, caught on tape from CNN.com.
I am amazed at the bravery of the school board member Ginger Littleton who tried to knock the gun from Duke's hand as well as the composure of all the board members.
Thank goodness Duke was not a good shot and the chief of security, Mike Jones was able to take him down by firing shots at him.
Duke was definitely right. He said "someone is gonna die" and it ended up being him.
