U.S.: Ineffective gunman Clay Duke had an extra box of bullets on him

  • 11 number of bullets fired by Clay Duke at the Bay District School Board; none of them connected, even though he was point-blank
  • two number of bullets fired by security guard Mike Jones, who connected both times; Duke then killed himself after the incident
  • yes Duke had more bullets; he had an extra clip and an entire box of bullets; considering how bad of a shot he was, he needed them source
  • » Why did he snap?: Duke was apparently upset that his wife, a teacher, was fired by the school district, based in Panama City, Fla., earlier this year. Oh yeah, Duke asked a couple of ROTC members that he ran into if their weapons were loaded. Should’ve asked the security guard. That said, we’re very happy that the intended victims weren’t hurt by this guy. Whew.

U.S.: Worst gunman ever: Guy holds up meeting, opens fire, misses

  • Look. This was a scary incident. This guy, Clay Duke, could’ve hurt a lot of people. But … man. This video makes us wonder. He started firing, and managed to hit absolutely nobody. They initially thought he was firing blanks at the Panama City, Fla. school board members … but no. He’s just perhaps the worst gunman ever. (That giant, inexplicable “V” on the wall? Also Duke’s handiwork.) During the incident, a security guard shot at Duke, who later shot himself in the head and died. And we have the entire thing on video. Wanna know more? Well, a reporter on the scene wrote an entertaining, colorful eyewitness account. Worth the read. source
