Sure but laughing gas doesn't make you shoot at cops then commit suicide. Maybe if for some reason (like hiding guns/drugs) he thought he was going to be put away forever.
He really did. He also had all the tools in terms of size and ability to become a rotation player in the NBA.
uhhh yeah that is even an understatement. laughing gas lasts a matter of seconds. if drugs were the cause there has to be something else involved mixed with that.
Man that sucks... Poor mom. It seems like such a mistake to call the police in this scenario, considering he's having an aggressive mental break down, has guns, is a 6'8 intimidating man in an enclosed area like in an apartment. I can't imagine too many scenarios where the police can de-escalate that.
