Terrorist

The Resume

    (June 1, 1943-February 14, 1977)
    Killed 5 people and wounded 5 others at the Neptune Moving Company in New Rochelle, NY, where he worked (February 14, 1977)
    One person died from wounds six weeks later
    Committed one of the first recorded acts of deadly rampage in the work place

Why he might be annoying:

    He was a college dropout.
    He joined the Army but got into trouble and was given a general discharge.
    He collected Nazi memorabilia and was obsessed with Adolf Hitler.
    He hated blacks and jews (his first 3 victim were black).
    While surrounded, he called the police and demanded potato salad and hot chocolate.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He spared his coworker and friend, saying, 'Go home and tell my mother not to come down to Neptune.'
    10 hours later, he shot himself in the head, fulfilling the words on his belt buckle: 'I will give up my gun when they pry my cold dead fingers from around it!'
