Had he done it in front of an apartment complex, no one would have even heard about it. The gaggle of tourists down there are all atwitter though as they've had a very exciting trip to the state capitol today. Oh, and of course, now people are starting to scream about how we need better security at the capitol. I've been down there a lot, and even though there are no metal detectors or pat downs or anything like that when you go in, that place is excessively safe. Safest place in town, really ... even though it's perfectly legal to carry a gun into the capitol if one has a concealed carry license. Or, maybe because of that. I'm still surprised he wasn't just shot dead on sight. That may have been what he was expecting. Suicide by cop is pretty popular. Like I said, not terribly exciting.
