Rodney William Ansell.

RWA's Expiration

IIRC, they couldn't figure out why he had a gun battle with the police.  But AFAIK, it took place after the Australian goverment outlawed possesion of firearms.  So I think the "From my Cold Dead Hands" argument may have merit.

Death by beaurocracy.

Wonder what the statistic is on people driven to the brink of sanity-and over-by governments?

But then again, maybe he was just one of those people that was born 100 years too late.
