This 52 year old dude in Texas tin-canned what I think is a Chevy Malibu, so bad it's barely identifiable. Why did he do it? 'Cause she "wasn't driving like a Christian."

Yeah, let's give 'em all guns! This is gonna be entertaining!

Man Rams Woman's Car At 100 MPH, Claims "God" Told Him To Do it

A speeding truck rammed a woman’s sedan at over 100 MPH on a Texas freeway last Friday. Why? According to the Archangel Gabriel/ Michael E. Schwab, a resident of Blooming Grove, Texas, the woman "was not driving like a Christian.”

Schwab failed to explain what the woman had done to prompt the Lord’s wrath and investigators have since determined that she violated no traffic laws. She was driving North on highway 281 when Schwab struck the rear of her sedan. The impact spun both vehicles across the median before being brought to a halt by the barrier on the far side of the south bound lanes. Neither party was seriously injured by the accident, although both vehicles appear to be totaled.
Describing the accident, Lt. Kyle Coleman of the Bexar County Sheriff’s Department said, “He just said God said she wasn't driving right, and she needed to be taken off the road.” According to a release issued by the department, Schwab told police “the other vehicle was not driving like a Christian and it was Jesus' will for him to punish the car.” It was Schwab who told the police that he was traveling over 100 MPH at the time of the impact.
Schwab has since been charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, been placed under a $50,000 bond and will now face a psychological evaluation.
“God must have been with them, 'cause any other time, the severity of this crash, it would have been a fatal,” said Lt. Coleman.

Nah, I don't see any reason not to arm the elderly through Medicare payments for single-shot hand guns. This guy is only 52 but 3 years away from what is considered a "senior citizen".

    Judging the elderly based on this one whacko (who's not even elderly) woudl be like judging all Christians based on this one whacko. IE, stupid.

    That accident has nothing to do with elderly, Christian, Texan, etc. That man is just plain crazy and there is no excuse for what he did.

    I was a flight medic in Texas for 12 years and it never ceased to amaze the crazy crap you saw day in and day out. Nut jobs are nut jobs no matter where they live or what cartoon character they pray to.

    Can you imagine driving down the road getting hit by some dumb@$$ doing over a hundred? It was over before her brain could even compute her next move.
