" A wise man once said sometimes it is better to keep quiet and let one think you are a fool than to speak and erase all doubt...to the 4;39 poster,,my compassion is not ignorance,I have been to the school of hard knocks,, I now have 4 children and make six figures a year.* years of college and to have someone talk when they know little or nothing about this case is very disheartening..You must be a saint so i willtrust your words..(sarcasm) goodnight "

" I am sure the Tribune was not able to print every detail about this person... but the few details printed are enoungh to wonder why let him out on such a low bond? The guy may be a great guy and just made "several" mistakes... my concern is that one of these "mistakes" may eventually get someone killed. Yes, he was not carrying a gun this time, but how did the police know this? He should still be in jail or at least held to get some help for his issues. "

" I don't understand why violent criminals aren't held accountable for their actions. If he had an alcohol or drug violation, they would throw the bench at him. I realize that he has not gone to court yet, but I'll bet that he doesn't serve one day in jail. "

" I am not real impressed by a $1000 signature bond. I am thinking this guy might need to be locked up in some kind of place where his mental issues can be dealt with. If something happens once, that's one thing. Twice is a pattern. Habitual is a problem. Someone get this guy the help he needs, and keep him away from the general population until his issues can be addressed. Also, whether or not it was a gun shouldn't matter. Someone with this guys disposition and criminal record shouldn't be allowed to carry a butter knife. "

" Next have his mom go over there to investigate and then if it is a real emergency call the police. What a waste of the police's time for this guy. I wonder what the expense to the taxpayers will be on this one. "
He didn't have a gun this time. wrote on Jul 14, 2007 10:02 AM:
" The only reason it was a stand off was because the police decided to "stand off" and not go in and grab the guy. We can't blame him for that and we can't blame them for making sure all were safe. Other than try to distract the police with fake 911 calls he really didn't do anything. Have we ever used the armored personel carrier? It probably doesn't go upstairs so it wouldn't have helped much. "

" Work release program in Columbia County? He needs lock up. Misdemeanors for a stand off with guns invloved? This thing reeks
To those who want to heal his mental issues.... a criminal is a criminal and a drunk is a drunk. Dont waste the effort and my tax dollars on this waste of skin. "

" that he gets charged monetarily for the expenses involved with this standoff. But as always, I'm sure that the law-abiding, taxpaying, contributors of society will end up footing the bill. He probably has "mental" issues that prohibit him from responsibility in this area. "
