Gay Bar Shooter Captured

UPDATE: Fox Breaking News is reporting Jacob Robida has died.

Jacob Robida, suspect in the Mass. gay bar shooting, was shot & captured by police in Norfork, Arkansas. (Norfork is a small town south of Mountain Home) One of our local news stations happened to be in the area, and has exclusive video of the capture. (Look for the video link on the right here)

Robida shot & killed a Gassville, Arkansas policeman during a routine traffic stop. There's also unconfirmed witness reports that he shot & killed his female passenger at the end of the chase.

If the crazy bastard survives the double tap to the head he got during the shootout with police, he'll likely face capital murder charges here as well as in Massachusetts.

And here he'd prolly get the needle.

There's not many bleeding heart liberals in that neck of the woods.

Gee, another effin' psycho shot to death. What a shame.

Good riddance.

Cop killers tend to piss people off around here. Did you see all the bullet holes in that car?

People need to remember that there is a _huge_ difference between a shootout with, say, NYPD, and a bunch of Southern cops. One group grew up with guns, hunting, and shooting accurately, the other group grew up in NYC.

A lot of them make the mistake of expecting Barney Fife, when in reality it's more like Sgt. York.
