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.

      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.”

        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?

      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.
