Source – An elderly grandfather threw a man off his roof, ending an hours-long standoff in which the agitated suspect jumped from home to home in a La Puente neighborhood on Tuesday.
The suspect was on top of homes in the 14000 block of Beckner Street for hours, refusing commands from deputies and crisis negotiators asking him to come down.
Capt. Tim Murakami said the standoff ended when 83-year-old homeowner Wilford Burgess “got tired of his games and pushed him off.”
Atta-boy Wilford. You told him you were gonna do it and you did. That’s what I call a man of conviction. That’s how parenting works really. Empty threats make you a pussy as a parent, and if you dont follow through with a reasonable threat and deliver the consequence, your kid will walk all over you.
Guaranteed the douche nozzle Willy pushed off his roof learned a lesson about standing on his roof. Dont fuck with the old fellow cuz he cares more about his shingles than my life & he will push me off his roof.
We need more Wilfords in the world to show us how to follow through on threats despite the consequences.
