Virginia TV journalists shot dead on air in attack staged by former colleague | US news | The Guardian

It's like I've always said - and will continue to say - if every TV and Radio reporter were slinging an automatic weapon, this never would happened. But nobody is listening! :mad:

I think a lot of Americans still think they are living in the times of Billy the Kid, Butch Cassidy, Augustine Chacon, the Clantons, the James gang, etc. Perhaps they have been brainwashed by their own recent history. Seems the law of the gun is still rife in America! :thinking: :( :-3

Here you have several tons of verbal Bull Shyt, but I'm linking it anyway simply to reference the only statement with any worth; “gun-related deaths dwarf those that happen through terrorism.

The funny thing is that, unlike the portrayal in the movies, in many of those "wild west" towns you had to check your guns at the sheriff's office when coming into town and pick them up when you left.

Ah yes, those were the days! When you could leave your children off at kindergarten in the morning, drop off a letter at the post office, take your family to the nearest shopping mall, enjoy the latest film at the cinema, and attend church on Sunday ¦... without the worry of a spray of bullets tearing you to shreds within the city limits.

I doubt that very much,HT. Sid's a kind, generous and very amusing guy who gets along with just about anybody, regardless of race, circumstance and stereotype.

The only folk he detests are thugs and politicians. Can't fault him there!

Apology unnecessary, HT. Humour is good, unless it's sick (poor taste). Think I'll leave it there....:wah:
