PANAMA CITY, Fla. – A 56-year-old ex-convict calmly held a school board at gunpoint and said he was seeking redress for his wife’s firing before shooting at the superintendent at short range and then killing himself.
No bullets struck the superintendent, Bill Husfelt, who credited God for his escape late Tuesday. The gunman, Clay A. Duke, apparantly created a Facebook page last week that refers to class warfare and is laced with images from the movie “V for Vendetta,” in which a mysterious figure battles a totalitarian government.

Before the shooting started, the only woman on the five-member board — who had left the room as ordered — came back, sneaked up behind Duke and whacked his gun arm with her large, brown purse.
“In my mind, that was the last attempt or opportunity to divert him,” Ginger Littleton said.

Fucking Ginger Littleton man, what a hero. I love that lady. Just disarming gunmen in super slow mo with her purse. I mean talk about balls. Lady had zero shot to be successful there, zero. But did that stop her? Fuck no. When the shit hits the fan and an ex-con takes the school board hostage its go time for Ginger Littleton. Balls to the Wall all day everyday.

PS

Is there a better name than Ginger Littleton? Just an average middle class mom, running bake sales and taking down crazies.

I love the school board’s reaction. It was like they were talking to a dog pissing on the rug, not a woman trying to disarm a gunman. Like come on Ginger, I thought we’ve been over this, stop trying to hit guns out of people’s hands with your purse. It NEVER works.

Triple PS

Not to get all political but I’m pretty sure this is the exact reason why handguns should be illegal.
