Agreed. What in the actual fuck is wrong with people these days?

 

I've got that call and it's a shitty feeling. This happened at one of my previous units I was stationed at (as in this was MY SHOP) and I worked with the convicted for 3 years prior to the murders. There is no more of a sickening feeing than getting the call and immediately knowing who did it well before the investigation and conviction. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/...d-murder-suspect-resented-co-workers/1931741/

Flat out, people suck.
