It looks like that was part of his problem with the city officials.
notice where the shooter lived.
Taken from local newspaper:
Thornton was not a stranger to the council, where he was often a contentious presence. In May 2006, he was handcuffed and pulled from a meeting. He was charged with disorderly conduct and released.
McNichols said he often aimed his ire at the mayor and at Yost.
Late last month, a federal judge in St. Louis dismissed a lawsuit in which Thornton, representing himself, claimed Kirkwood officials violated his free speech rights by prohibiting him from speaking out at meetings.
In a ruling Jan. 28, U.S. District Judge Catherine D. Perry took into account that Thornton had twice been convicted of disorderly conduct for disrupting meetings in 2006 with off-point complaints about persecution by officials.
"He came to many, many meetings and always said terrible things to the mayor," McNichols remmebered. "He'd come to the meeting and he'd have a big easel and a picture. a donkey on there and call the council asses."
Sportscaster Doug Vaughn of Channel 4 told that station that he went to Kirkwood High School with Thornton and saw him through the years. He said Thornton's behavior changed after police cracked down on his parking of vehicles for his construction company outside his home in Meacham Park. He felt harassed, Vaughn said.0 -
perhaps he was harassed. 0 -
Hope the shooter wasn't a GB member. 0 -
i often wonder if the guy who does stuff like this is really insane or just taking the "state of militia" in to his own hands, we all moan groan and cry around here on a daily basis that we need to STAND UP for our second amendment rights and constitution, and our second amendment rights are in fact our guarantee against a tyrannic government, this is the main reason they want to disarm us
before you flame i'm not saying it was right, just looking at it from a way most don't ever consider
the shooter was black and all victims are white, i just saw an interview with the shooters family quote: they should not drive people, i guess they drove him. AMAZING!0 -
