Eight people were killed and several others wounded when Santa Claus
started to shoot at them by a pistol.

Tis the season to be compassionate, and kind towards all. But the sick
****, Markku has to exploit the tragedy in the world.

Markku is just as deranged as said gunman. It's very sad that this Finnish
Asshole has no life.

he may be a sad asshole, but did Markku kill anyone ??

I would never have seen Markku's crap unless some **** had
followed up with another post. That **** would be *you.*

That's due to the inability of your newsreader to killfile a thread or
subthread (or your inability to operate that newsreader)

I didn't know that the thread was going to appear, and that it was
originally from the Finnish Drunken Idiot, until the *first* followup
appeared. But thanks for that second ASSumption, asshole.

Wow, a little slow huh?

Figure out what it means to "killfile a thread" first.

I regularly killfile-by-subthread posts I don't like. This means that I
don't see their posts, nor any follow-ups, but I do still see other
portions of those threads that the annoyance hasn't tainted.

It makes for an absolutely wonderful usenet experience, all without
throwing little temper tantrums because not everyone else responds to
what you want them to and ignored what you'd like the world to ignore.

Imagine that.

Perhaps you bedouins develop this thread somewhere else. rte hardly is a
forum to do so. Crossposting is nasty anyways.

Perhaps you should get a clue and realize that there's no plural you
to blame for the initial crosspost to rte.

Once crossposted, you can't go back without potentially losing people
who might be interested, and you have no way of knowing who these people
are and are not.

Anyway, the way you do it, by cutting Newsgroups: instead of by
setting Followup-To:, is wrong, so probably you shouldn't be giving any
lessons on Netiquette.

The usa-canada travel group is just as "off topic", which is your original
post.

Drunk again Markku?

The freak seems to have made a comeback. Crossposting is always unnecessary
and wicked.

Follow up to where? r.t.usa-canada? Or some nil value? No comments on the
character table in use for outgoing mail this time? Have I made some "wrong"
settings?

I'm sure no one here cares, but just FYI, "West Covina" (where the mini
"massacre" took place) is NOT "Los Angeles"! A near-by community and
part of the greater urban sprawl, yes - but not part of L.A. proper.

It seems to me I heard somewhere that EvelynVogtGamble(Divamanque)

Perhaps the people of Covina do; the LA Times' coverage says crime was
in Covina, and the Thomas Guide says the street the Times names in
their stories is in Covina. Covina is just a skosh farther from LA
proper than West Covina, is of course east of West Covina. :-)

On the other hand, it's in the LA metro area and it's not
uncommon in colloquial speech to refer to places within a metro
area by the name of the central city, especially when one is
mentioning it to people well outside the area who wouldn't know
where West Covina is. And, of course, it's in Los Angeles county.

When I lived in Daly City but was traveling several hundred miles
or more from there I would usually say I lived in San Francisco.
But if I was talking to someone in, say, San Jose, I would say I
lived in Daly City.

Absolutely true . . .

or more from there I would usually say I lived in San Francisco.
But if I was talking to someone in, say, San Jose, I would say I
lived in Daly City.

.. . . and the same principle I follow. In this case, however, I was
making a correction to a previous correction indicating it happened in
*West Covina*, not in LA. :-)
