Florida Man Accused Of Threatening Massacre At Walmart Day After El Paso Shooting

[MIAMI.CBSLOCAL] A Florida man is accused of threatening to shoot up a Walmart store, one day after 20 people were killed at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas.

Wayne Lee Padgett, 31, was arrested late Sunday.

He reportedly called the Walmart Supercenter in Gibsonton on Sunday afternoon and telling managers he planned to open fire in the store. About 1,000 people inside were evacuated.

Hillsborough County sheriff’s Sherlocks said they traced the call to Padgett. No gun was found at his house near Tampa.

Padgett is charged with filing a false report of using a firearm in a threatening manner. He was being held Monday at the Hillsborough County jail on $7,500 bond.

If he's unemployed I suggest he apply for Jack Black's action double in hollywood. Give him a kick out of life too.

#3 Copycat behavior is a bigger factor in mass shootings than any ideology.

The best way to reverse the trend is to impose a news embargo on any details of any mass shooting.

Come to think of it, just ask the media to treat mass shootings the way they treat urban violence and shootings: bury the story on the back pages. Brief description of counts, location, time of day. No details at all about the shooter.
