A would-be bar owner angry at being denied a liquor license threatened to shoot people at the Super Bowl and drove to within sight of the stadium with a rifle and 200 rounds of ammunition before changing his mind, federal authorities said. Kurt William Havelock, who ultimately turned himself in, had vowed to "shed the blood of the innocent" in a manifesto mailed Sunday to media outlets, according to court documents. "No one destroys my dream," he wrote. The documents say he was armed with an AR-15 assault-style rifle Sunday when he reached a parking lot near University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, where pre-game activities were happening.

Urrgh, this proves my point, that americas needs to go back to our roots, and bring God back into our society. This is crazy. Just because he didnt get some license, that he could probably apply for later? Wow. Nothing else to say.

I don't see why bringing religion back into society changes a thing...the very "rock" that this country is built upon is it's ability to be free to practice whatever they want(so long as it does not come into direct violation of a law). Besides there's no way the government could force religion on the entire country. There would still be people who won't follow it.

And who's to say that this guy doesn't believe in a God or some other higher being?

I didnt say we have to force religion upon people...but we shouldn't take it out completely.

If he believed in God, I doubt he'd bring a gun to the super bowl to "shed the blood of the innocent"
