suicide note to obama

[howdy ya'll]

this is interesting......


EL PASO, Texas -- A 52-year-old man who leapt to his death from a freeway overpass left a note asking for Barack Obama to help his family.

El Paso police Officer Chris Mears said the man, whose name has not been released, jumped from an overpass onto westbound Interstate 10 shortly before 8 a.m. Thursday. In his car, abandoned nearby, the man left a typewritten note on legal size paper on his dashboard and another attached to a rear window. Both were one-line notes asking for the Illinois senator and Democratic presidential candidate to help his family, Mears said.

Mears said the notes did not include any details about what kind of help the man wanted or what may have prompted him to jump to his death Thursday morning.

i can tell you: he was mentally ill. it is obvious from the facts presented thus far.

Big Spring State Hospital used to get the majority of its folks from the El Paso area (until they started taking inmates, which now eeks out the majority from El Paso).

Poor man, and his poor family! God Bless them. Seriously though, I guess he had not read the stories of Obamas poor Aunt and Uncle living in proverty in the US.
