Oh No, Puns!

A while I found an article titled ''Porn actor goes on rampage at video production office, police say; 1 dead, 2 wounded''. I can't remember how the heck I stumbled across this article, but I bookmarked it because I thought that the comments were just hilarious (if not really mean).
Here's the article:

"Police say a disgruntled employee, in the process of being fired, stabbed three co-workers in Van Nuys with a Samurai-style sword."

The man believed responsible for a rampage at a Van Nuys video production facility that left one dead and two wounded is a struggling porn actor who faced the loss of his job, authorities said.

Stephen Hill, 30, allegedly used a machete-style weapon in the attack, which occurred about 10:20 p.m. at a video distribution business on Hayvenhurst Avenue and Saticoy Street.

Los Angeles Police Department Det. Joel Price said Hill was both working and living at the offices of Ultima DVD Inc.

Price said Hill did production work and acted in several porn movies. But on the night of the attack, he apparently faced the loss of his job and eviction from the office.

Hill allegedly fled after stabbing the three co-workers. The victims were rushed to a hospital, where one was pronounced dead. There were seven people in the office when the attack occurred.

The LAPD is investigating the attack as a case of workplace violence. The suspect fled in a blue Toyota RAV4 with license plate 5YTC423.

Well, it's odd and tragic itself. And probably these comments full of puns will offend quite a few:

''I'm sure being evicted was HARD ON him''

''what? he didnt shoot it with his gun?''

''I'm sure he will receive a stiff sentence.''

''I thought this was a joke ad for a lumber company or a wood worker union or some hot dog company .... and on and on ...''

''Maybe he got some bad ass... And I can't even get any.. What a dork....''

''How do one gets to be "struggling porn actor"? Either you're one or you're not. I don't think anyone "struggle" to become a porn actor. ''

''Too bad, i really enjoyed his stuff''

''The cialis side effect strikes again!!!...i can see so many innuendos with this story like "Raging porn star still at LARGE"''

''one of is co-stars kept calling him' shorty' !! almost as bad as 'speedy' !''

''A "struggling porn star"? I thought porn was what struggling real actors / actresses, who have no marketable skills, fell into while trying to "make it big"!''

''So, this guy was going to get the "shaft"?''

''Now he will go from violating hot chicks to being violated by ugly dudes. What a moron.''

''If you live by the sword, you'll die by the sword.''

''This is a bad time to lose your job, even for a porn "actor".
I'm surprised this kind of thing is not being reported every single day as more people lose their jobs.
It's tough out there people, so hold hands and share your lunch with others, just like you did in Kindergarten. :)''

This last one I agree with. The world needs more hugs. Naked hugs. (okay maybe not naked; that's situation-dependent).
