[2506]

On a side note, if a UPS employee goes nuts at work, do we say, "He went parcel"?
Asking for a friend...

Whole new take on the old "What can Brown do for you".

I'd say yes but we should probably look up the defanition to be sure!

Going postal, in American English slang, means becoming extremely and uncontrollably angry, often to the point of violence, and usually in a workplace environment.

The expression derives from a series of incidents from 1986 onward in which United States Postal Service (USPS) workers shot and killed managers, fellow workers, and members of the police or general public in acts of mass murder. Between 1970 and 1997, more than 40 people were killed by current or former employees in at least 20 incidents of workplace rage.

Nope he went postal!!

In Kommiefornia these days per the law any pistol that has a magazine holding more than 10 rounds is an "assault" weapon. So another demonizing term to bewitch the sheeple with.

My brother (The Armorer) thought I should have one of these for my 70th birthday. I looked
in my AR parts drawer and with a little Super Glue, it now has a rail mounted reflex sight and
a small Laser on it. It's also covered in"Camo" tape. Pure "Tactical", There are no more spiders
in my garage. The Feds may soon be here though, as I'm afraid I've violated the "Adults Only"
disclaimer. I may get older, but I'll never grow up.

As a 30 year UPS driver, this hits close to home for me. One of the victims was a 15 year employee who leaves behind a wife and 6 kids. Truly a sad day.

I meant no disrespect to the victims, or their families by my previous post.
One of our close neighbors was belt maintenance at the Redmond hub for years.
