High gas prices may have a lot of people down, but apparently they also have someone feeling homicidal.
According to CNN’s November 15 “American Morning” Shell president John Hofmeister has gotten hate mail and even a death threat because of the price of gasoline.
“Pretty brave that you decided to do this, you know you were heading out on tour, you didn’t just get hate mail, but you actually received a death threat at one point?” asked co-host Kiran Chetry.
“Well, you could call it that. It was a picture of me hanging from a high branch of a tall tree," said Hofmeister.
