There is no mental health treatment in our society.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

mental health treatment in america is to grab a gun, wave it at people then drown in your addiction of choice. This woman chose "religious conspiracy bullshit"

"Troopers stopped the woman after she drove for about 16 miles (26 kilometers) and found her with an AR-15 rifle and 9mm handgun."

What was she thinking? You need two hands to shoot an AR-15...

God told her to because of the eclipse

When the Creator tells you to do something like that, you want to get it in writing just in case the judge has a different theological take on the matter.

Given that the last guy who tried that ended up in jail, again, I would say no.

Georgia woman. It was a Georgia woman that crossed into Florida. WTH is up with that headline?

[–] [email protected] 47 points 1 year ago

She knew where she belonged

Florida has a reputation to maintain

Come on, what do I say here? Lock her in jail? Push her off the cliff?? Craziness should not be supported unless it’s in a tiny padded cell under constant supervision. Too many people in this country claim insanity and if she really is, let her watch Boomerang all day; if she’s not test her boomerang-ability

So today I drove five hours to see the eclipse, had a tire blow out, didn't see the eclipse because of thick clouds, and got stuck in traffic for hours on the way back. (I'm still not home.) But at least I haven't been shot by maniac, yet.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago (2 children)

You didn't shoot anyone either tho, did you?

Asking the important questions

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's been two hours. They for sure murdered someone.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

It's been 6 hours I'm getting worried

[–] [email protected] 102 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Any updates? It's been 8 minutes, you're starting to worry me.

[–] [email protected] 103 points 1 year ago (2 children)

RIP ArbitraryValue. Do you guys remember how excited he was about the eclipse there at the end? It's all he could talk about. That's what I'll remember most.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I remember when he blew a maniac in traffic who shot a thick cloud on his back for hours that he didn't get to see because of the eclipse. He never made it home because he was too tired.

Not a Florida woman. Georgia woman. Georgia is exporting their crazy to Florida.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

Thank God we have laws to keep guns out of the hands of obvious crazy people.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago

I mean … if I wasn’t already avoiding that shithole state …

If God told her to then it should be legal.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

And morally ok. Because powerful sky man told her so.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No one can prove God didn't tell her to go on a shooting spree.

Gonna be hard for the marshalls to deliver it. Or, at least to return from delivering it.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

I'm sure he can pass it on.

If you liked "Florida Man", you're gonna love "Florida Woman"
