Re: WTF in America
But now you have brought this to my attention, and I have put on my stars and stripes baseball cap, I can see a different perspective.

I'm not going to watch it again to count, but there were a lot of shots fired there, and the guy was only hit 4 times. We don't hear that sort of shooting in my neighbourhood even when the gangsters are going at it.

An ex-colleague of mine in London who served in the army in a unit of trained marksman, told me that in a stress/combat situation it was unlikely that a trained marksman using a pistol would hit a person at a distance of 30 feet. It is therefore interesting that the fireman found his target four times; I presume he was closer than 30ft.

I wonder if this new anti gun law would have stopped something like this. Apparently if you don't like your neighbor having guns, you can complain and say they are an at risk person.

Re: WTF in America
Kids with guns imagine they've been wronged, kill everybody, try to hide the bodies... it's more common than you'd think. Blame Fargo for setting the tone.
