Default A snowball fight

Young boys were tossing snowballs on each others in Philadelphia. A 15 year
old boy accidentally (or on purpose) hit an adult man with a snowball. The
man said he will be back. After a short while he came back carrying a
firearm and shot several times at the boy who is fighting for his life.
Madness!

And just where did you get this latest little bit of anti-American
propaganda to spew out? I haven't seen this reported anywhere.

Why do you care, you don't live there

I've asked Markuu this question many times, but he just can't seem to
answer.

The alternative is to get depressed over being hit by a snowball, go
home and kill himself, like many of your countryman does.

Why should he? The answer should be obvious: things like this have no
justification whatever, nor do those gun nuts who try to excuse them.


I really don't think that there is a single "gun nut" in the country that
will try to justify this. I only ask why Markuu is so interested in
everything that happens here. There are other countries that have more
violence than the US, but he doesn't mention those.
And furthermore, his posts are off topic. There are gun groups for this
kind of discussion.

Another supposedly CIVILIZED country?


Civilized or not, people are dying. In fact, if you account for total
crimes per capita, Finland is #3 on the list. US is #8. Markku needs to
rethink his priorities.
