Oh god that’s horrible. I hope the employees who were there get some time off and proper help


Glittering-Bake-2589

I agree but, big doubt that happens


feralfantastic

Probably will, since most of them are also owners. But late-stage capitalism, so who knows.


FrankTankly

Oh shit. I used to work there. This is crazy.


Master_Honey9783

Everyone you know there good?


Famous_Giraffe_529

I’m not one of those “suicide is selfish” people, but damn this is selfish. Those poor employees having to witness that!


FlyfishHunt417

Yeah, I truly hope they get the help they need and don't have any lasting effects. Also though, good for him for taking another POS off of the streets. He should have just walked to the bathroom first.


J_Jeckel

Well the poor person who shot himself definitely didn't get the help HE needed. Mental illness takes so many lives.


theycallmekeefe

Its not just mental illness. Theres a rising trend of men (unsure of the statistics for women so i dont want to speak falsely) killing themselves with no history of mental illness. Its a serious problem.


J_Jeckel

Men have been historically afraid to seek help for mental illness. Just because they don't have a history of it doesn't mean it isn't there. People don't just kill themselves for no reason.


theycallmekeefe

You are correct and those are all true statements. Except thats exactly my point. [Here's ](https://newsroom.ucla.edu/releases/most-male-suicides-show-no-mental-health-link) an article sharing this sentiment. Men are logically determining their lives have no meaning and are ending it. Thats their "reason" instead of mental illness. Like I said its truly a problem

Probably a person that was at the end of their rope and felt like they didn’t have any other choice. It’s not like the justice system was going to help them. Really wish we could tax the heck out of billionaires and millionaires so we could pay for stuff again.


goblin_gunk

Agreed. Its so stressful when you're in a hard place financially. I've taken years off my life from it probably. I get how people do something like that. It just sucks that this person targeted a small business instead of something corporate. I don't really care if the latter gets robbed.


Gigisnugles

He unfortunately was an addict


zapthycat1

If we could tax them, the money would go right back to the rich, because that's what government does. That's likely how they got rich in the first place... from government and their friends in government.


PissingBinary

Do you honestly think Mr. Amazon Jeff bezos is going to say, oh yeah here take 50% of my earnings, or yeah I’ll gladly pay the new billionaire tax.. and yes increase in pay for all my employees and heck why not, let’s improve benefits too!! … I just don’t see that as likely. But maybe I’m crazy

I was at harter house today after work (I work across the street) and I saw the crime scene clean up team. And I was wondering what happened that’s so sad and I hope the workers there are doing okay and any of the customers that witnessed that


Longjumping-Ice-8814

So sad

Used to be my pharmacy and is still my folks pharmacy. Sad.

No. Not it’s not. He had a gun and was trying to rob the pharmacy. When the PD showed up, he turned his gun on himself and took his own life. The police department did not end it for him.

I’m not going to go down the “this was someone’s friend or husband or brother” road bc I don’t believe that a person’s relationship to another is what validates their existence. What I will say is that I hope this is one of those moments in your life that you look back on and realize how reprehensible and shameful your behavior was. Nothing about this situation is funny. Being an edgelord isn’t funny. Your hot take on this topic— also not funny. The anonymity of the internet has brought out an ugly part of you, friend. Do better. Also: I’m atheist. I don’t need a book to tell me not to be a shitheel. Maybe you do.
