[NYPOST] A Florida man who recently lost his job and got dumped by his girlfriend threatened to carry out a mass shooting over the weekend ‐ telling his ex that "a good 100 kills would be nice," according to cops."I wanna open fire on a large crowd of people from over 3 miles away," Tristan Scott Wix, 25, allegedly said in a text message to his ex.
| That seems a tad ambitious... |
| “Help wanted: sniper spotter. Must have five years experience and 20/1 mile uncorrected vision.” |
"A school is a weak target," Wix allegedly said. "Id be more likely to open fire on a large crowd of people...I already have a location (laughing cry face emoji) is that bad?"
At one point, cops said he flat-out acknowledged that he could be arrested for his words.
"Ah well even if you told someone, me saying I wanna do it and think about it is not the same as actually doing it lol," wrote Wix. "Was kinda hoping someone would come into my life worth not doing it for, for the sake of all those people (laughing cry face emoji). I’m not crazy I just wanna die and I wanna have fun doing it, but I’m the most patient person in the world."
