Hooray! And here I thought we’d have to wait for an October surprise for this sort of thing: Crazy peckerwood bank robber Byron Williams instigates shoot-off with cops in Oakland, CA.
His mother produced the money quote though:
She said she had planned to cook salsa with her son on Sunday and was making preparations when she got a call from a television reporter, looked out the window and saw that her pickup was gone.
She said she then checked the locked safe where she kept her guns, all legally purchased and owned, and found that they were also missing.
Janice Williams said she kept the guns because “eventually, I think we’re going to be caught up in a revolution.” But she said she had told her son many times that “he didn’t have to be on the front lines.”
OK, what? Is “salsa” code for meth or something? Are we serving Mexican food on the front lines of the RACIAL HOLY WAR?
PS: Tangentially related, and so Not Safe For Work.
Where did she go?
