No indication why this particular suicide by shooting oneself to death has any long-standing impact in an encyclopaedic sense. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:00, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
- Delete. This article was originally full of WP:COATRACK for something different. With the extraneous stuff removed, all we have left is a few sentences about somebody who shot himself. Tragic, but not encyclopædic. bobrayner (talk) 21:40, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

- Delete Tragic but not notable....William 02:28, 6 September 2014 (UTC)
- Delete of the reliable refs provided, they only show minimal attention to his death, mostly as a journalistic hook to discuss immigration policy. unfortunately his death did not become notable for moving this discussion forward, and was just a tragedy. we dishonor his death by trying to give him an article when the world didnt really give him one in the newspapers.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 02:41, 6 September 2014 (UTC)
- Delete. I see quite a few trivial mentions, but there isn't really enough coverage to base an article on this event. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 22:22, 6 September 2014 (UTC)
