Stop Waving that Gun
Posted by Paul Szynol on Monday, January 13 @ 16:38:56 EST Oddities
A SWAT team arrived at a Boulder apt building a few days ago in response to reports that a crazed resident had been waving a gun and shouting threats at someone inside the apartment ("want to kill" and "bitch" are two excerpts). Scary stuff.

Turns out he was yelling at his computer, and, contrary to original reports, the gun was a pellet gun, not a .45 caliber automatic.

Coverage is here.

The article does not say which operating system this guy was using.

I bet he was mad because of the endless popup ads on the average porn site.
