King of the Hill voice actor Jonathan Joss has died aged 59 after a shooting in Texas, police have confirmed.
Joss was the voice of John Redcorn for seasons two through 13 of the popular animated series. He had reportedly recorded bits for the show’s reboot, which recently began production for Hulu and is slated to premiere in August.
The actor was reportedly shot multiple times over the weekend after a disagreement with a neighbor, according to TMZ. San Antonio police responded to a home after reports of shots fired and found Joss near the road with gunshot wounds, according to Variety.
He was pronounced dead at the scene.
If I lived in America and was LGBTQ I’d be buying a gun right now, and this comes from someone who has always been anti-gun
That’s what I’m telling all my LGBTQ friends in the US who are not at risk of suicide. You can’t afford to be neutral in an arms race, especially when the enforcers of possible gun bans are all buddies with the people that shouldn’t have guns.
If i lived in america i’d sell my gun to get out of that shithole as soon as possible.
Almost everyone I know is broke. No country takes broke people. I could leave any day if I’m only willing to abandon everyone who cares about me
This is by design, too. Disenfranchise the minority and then keep pretending society is meritocratic and then “if they really wanted to survive or escape they would have made more money.”
You overestimate how much guns cost here. You’re not even renting a U-Haul with that.
I mean I agree with the first part of your statement. He is greatly overestimating the cost of a gun. But a decent piece will cost you 300-500 bucks. Uhauls are 70 bucks a day?
This is what my LGBTQ neighbors are actually doing.
I’m staying, not because I want to - but because I have a lot of friends and family who can’t afford to, and if push comes to shove, my savings are going towards helping them get out too.
A gun doesn’t save you if you don’t know they have one until they shoot first.
At this point it’s safe to assume every homophobe is armed and react accordingly.
The homophobe was coming right for us. I feared for my life. It was self defense.
But then they’ll just make defending yourself against armed violent and threatening homophobes a hate crime.
Frankly I don’t think it would matter at that point since they’ll hate us for no reason no matter how well we behave. Altho, I may or may not have been a little too angry when I made that comment, because after all guns aren’t the only means of defense and I don’t think I want people to have the guilt of killing someone over them, even if it was in self-defense.
