Crazy bastards trying to kill each other over lobsters.

On a July morning, it reached the boiling point when a longtime lobsterman and his daughter drew guns on two fellow islanders. The lobsterman fired, shooting a man he had known for decades in the neck, police reported.

Lobsters are pretty good though. I know I'd be very pissed off if someone tried to take mine. If I were to ever have one.

The missus knew someone who taught there....there really isn't anything to do out there and a grocery shop costs $100 in deliveries before the groceries so the locals must have wet their pants at this bit of action
