Default Missouri Burning

One more massacre in the USA. This time a local businessman went to the city
hall of Kirkwood Missouri and opened fire in the middle of a meeting. Three
councillors, two policemen and the businessman himself were killed in the
shooting. Madness. I just wonder how many international visits the USA will
receive after all this bloodshed. This happens every day. The only reason
for this is the inadequate control over firearms. What the heck does a Joe
Smith need a pistol for? For shooting insects? For hammering nails? If man
dies in vain, this is the way to die in vain.

Markku, you clearly have the membership of this group confused with
people who give a damn.

What does it matter? No tourists have been harmed. We only shoot our own.

You seem to be obsessed with us. Since The US is #8 on the list for death
by firearms, you have 7 other countries to whine about. Why us? Could this
be a jelousy issue? Is old Markuu really a wannabe American Cowboy?
