Robert Hawkins Shoots Up Omaha Mall, Commits Suicide

Omaha Westroads Malls Killing

Eight people were killed in an Omaha, Nebraska mall today by a gunman who has been identified as Robert Hawkins.  Hawkins is reportedly 19 years old and left a suicide note stating: “I’m going out in style.” and “I’m going to be famous.”

Sgt. Teresa Negron said the gunman killed eight people, then apparently killed himself. Authorities gave no motive for the attack and did not know whether he said anything during the rampage.

Friends described Hawkins as “depressed” and said he had quit school several years ago and worked at a series of fast food jobs. He was arrested last month on misdemeanor charges and was expected to appear in court this month.

Officials said Hawkins, clad in military-style clothing, entered the mall just before 2 p.m. Wednesday and began firing off rounds.

Why do selfish bastards feel the need to kill others before cowardly turning the gun and committing suicide?  Be a man and just kill yourself and pass on to your life in hell.

This has become a very scary trend since the Columbine killings back in 1999 where twelve students and a teacher were killed (23 others were wounded) in a Colorado high school.  The two boys responsible, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, killed themselves after their bloody act of terror before they could be arrested.

Just last April the Virginia Tech Massacre took place where Seung-Hui Cho opened fire killing 32 students and injuring dozens before killing himself.

    “Be a man and just kill yourself and pass on to your life in hell.”

    Ouch!

    Since when do two wrongs make a right?

    i’m sorry for all the families having to deal with this. i know no more than what the news has told me about this situation.
    directed to paige — i dont know him either, but mindless slaughtering of innocent people to ‘go out with style’ and ‘be famous’ doesn’t portray an image of someone who isn’t selfish.

    How the heck was this coward not selfish? Please explain that to me.

    My suggestion: “Be a man and just kill yourself and pass on to your life in hell.�

    is just that and if he had done that 9 humans would be alive and he would still be in the same place.

    I agree wholeheartedly that he acted at least, selfishly - I merely question my place in the universe; to condemn him to hell for taking his own life. At least not with my limited knowledge of the happenings and of the condition of the individual.
