Esteban Santiago Was The Airport Shooter, Ft. Lauderdale Resident Esteban Guzman-Santiago Is Not

Yesterday afternoon, Fort Lauderdale resident Esteban Marcelo Guzman-Santiago got off work and noticed that about a hundred comments had poured onto a Facebook video he had posted from an awards ceremony. "Is this the guy???" someone wrote. Chimed in another, "I'd be a killer to (sic) if I had a face that looked like that." Guzman-Santiago, 23, quickly realized that he had the misfortune of sharing a name with the man who opened fire at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport in a rampage that killed five and injured eight yesterday. That, coupled with the fact he lives in Fort Lauderdale, apparently led internet sleuths to think they'd found their guy. "Your a peice of shit I hope u burn to death," a West Virginia man told Guzman-Santiago in a message . In the comments on Guzman-Santiago's video, others debated whether they'd truly found the culprit. Maybe this Esteban wasn't the right size. Plus, the video, posted about an hour after the shooting, didn't look like it was filmed in an airport. "Yall FB a name and think yall solved the crime," one woman wrote. In fact, the true shooter had been apprehended almost immediately after the shooting, Broward Sheriff Scott Israel said during a news conference. By the time Guzman-Santiago left work around 5:30 p.m., the gunman had been in custody for several hours. That didn't stop the armchair detectives from forming an Internet mob, though. As Guzman-Santiago drove home from the call center where he works, his phone rang, and it was someone asking if he was the shooter. He'd had enough. "Listen, everybody who is messaging me, texting me, calling me, asking me am I this motherfucking shooter," he said in a Facebook Live video, "I just left from work. I just got through from graduating from the training program. How in the goddamn fuck am I the goddamn shooter?" He added that if he was the shooter, "I wouldn't be responding to your motherfucking comments any motherfucking way." In an interview with New Times, Guzman-Santiago says it was nerve-wracking that people assumed he was the culprit — especially when he got the phone call. He's dismayed people were so quick to jump to conclusions. And he worries about how the name association will follow him. "When you go somewhere and they're like, 'Oh, your name is Esteban Santiago,' and you verify your name, even though they may not say something in the moment, in the back of their head, they might be worried, 'Is he in any way associated with this guy?'" Guzman-Santiago says. The man believed to have carried out the shooting, which happened just before 1 p.m. in the baggage claim area of Terminal 2, is a 26-year-old U.S. Army veteran who served in Iraq. In November, according to the Miami Herald, he visited an FBI office in Anchorage, where he was reportedly living, to confess he felt compelled to fight for ISIS. He was sent for psychiatric help. A Facebook profile belonging to that Esteban Santiago has already disappeared from the site.

Classic. We’ve hit that point in the world where normal names aren’t good enough anymore. Gotta follow suit like the celebrities and name your kid something crazy or else they might get confused with some other domestic terrorist. It’s like when Elaine started dating another Joel Rifkin and had her co worker and  Giants fans in an uproar when they thought she was dating a domestic terrorist. You’re just begging for trouble if you associate the same name. The worst part though are some of the comments coming through. I’m sure I would be pretty pissed off when people are accusing me of a major atrocity and issuing death threats to me, but I could at least look on the bright side and know my Klout score went through the roof. Social media buzz in this day and age is worth it’s weight in gold if you can manipulate it. But it must of been a real kick in the dick when all these people are accusing the innocent Esteban because “his face looked like that.” Or people wondering if that was him because of his body size. Like accusing someone of being a mass murderer is one thing. A person can easily shrug that off considering he would know if he was in fact a murderer, but he also definitely probably knows if he’s a fat guy and if he’s ugly or not. Such a shame. It’s probably gonna stick with him for awhile so he might as well go with a different name for a few years. Just don’t go with a name like Ned or Todd. Ned is the type of guy who buys irregular underwear, and you’ll never meet a normal Todd, that’s like asking to be accused of being a killer again.

Shootout in Ft. Myers Left 2 TEENS Dead And Over A Dozen Injured.

 

What the fuck is the world coming to these days? Where teens are involved in mass shootings. Teens. This was a party for kids. Only about a month removed from the Orlando Shooting now this. The worlds really becoming a toxic environment when this is the news to wake up to about a place a few hours from home. Thoughts and Prayers with their families of the victims

Don’t You Ever Talk Shit To Mike About Cleveland Strip Clubs Or Else You’ll Get Shot

(NEWSER) – If you find yourself in Cleveland, keep your strip club opinions to yourself. So learned Antonio Cummings early Saturday. The 24-year-old from Orlando, Fla., was at the Ohio city's Lido Lounge for a birthday party, WKYC reports, and while standing outside of the club, Cummings got into an argument with a guy identified only as Mike. The two were debating the difference between strip clubs in Florida and Ohio, and the argument turned into a fight that culminated in Mike allegedly shooting Cummings in the left thigh then fleeing in a vehicle. Friends took Cummings to the hospital. The investigation (into the shooting, not which state has better strip clubs) is ongoing.

I guess since this is a Florida site, you would expect me to have Antonio Cummings back here. Defend Florida’s honor and go on a tirade about Mike how he’s just some slug from Cleveland and how their strippers probably look like beat up dogs. Nope! Any guy who has ever been through Orlando knows that the biggest flaw to one of the largest vacation spots Florida has to offer is that they have the biggest bull shit law ever about strip clubs. Girls essentially have to hover over your dick by at least like a foot. What the fuck is the point of that? They wear pasties and g strings, charge over priced drinks, and are basically hovering over your dick or dancing around you like a lunatic. Sure you could try to bribe her into fucking her after but still, maybe its 3 am and I want to get a few lap dances first so i can take the ride for a spin to see if i want to fully commit to paying for sex. It’s a bullshit rule. Its a terrible time for me and terrible for the ladies cause no chance in hell I tip her enough to buy McDonalds if she doesn’t rub her ass against me or nearly smother me to death with her tits. So I don’t know what the fuck Antonio can be arguing for here. Are Cleveland strip clubs even worse than Orlando strip clubs or something? Can’t be right? they don’t have the political strings being pulled by Micky Mouse and they seem like a place that are pretty much at the point where they could openly solicit prostitution there. I base that solely on the fact that the Browns and all of Cleveland stinks so they turn to prostitution to ale their woes.
