Peace out!

Ronald “Bo” Ward, owner of Bo’s Barber Shop, had told the council his business would go under if he couldn’t get his home rezoned as commercial. After the 5-7 vote Thursday night, Ward stood and walked toward the council.

“Y’all have put me under. … I’m out of here,” he said before shooting himself in the head with a small handgun.

Man kills self after losing council vote.

So’s their faces.

    And some people *still* don’t believe in natural selection.

    He was all screwed up. You’re supposed to shoot them before you shoot yourself.

    What a shame…I had received many good haircuts from his place…
    a shame that he couldn’t find an alternative funding source…
    don’t know the reason for the vote, but maybe that decision by the city council not to rezone is a shame as well
