hope this fucker doesn't own or get any guns .
<Patrick Tomkins, 43, was arrested at his Iowa home Sunday after he reportedly approached several African-American girls at a school playground and began calling them racial slurs, asking if they wanted to fight and holding himself.
Tomkins told police that Saturday's reported incident at Prescott Elementary School took place because black women and girls trigger his post-traumatic stress disorder.
Tomkins admitted to police that he told the girls to "get out of my [expletive] school and to get out of my [expletive] town," the Herald reports.
Tomkins has been charged with disorderly conduct, the Herald reports.>

(14,526 posts)was a disorderly conduct charge? The girls were at a playground, so most likely they are 7th graders at most. He threatened them and was "holding himself."
I'm sure if the prosecutor put his mind to it, he could find a more serious charge for the white male who threatened black, female tweens.
