Wow, never saw this. Just shows the world we live in. News is dominated by cats stuck in trees. Forget about 145 people slaughtered......

 

[2001sleeper]

Nobody can justify a mass killing of that kind.
Disgusting how people can value life so little.

I saw this the other day, sick bastards.
I'm also waiting for one our resident rocket scientists to chime regarding gun control.

Laughed at the cats in trees part, but it's true. It's obviously messed up to kill period, but 132 kids? They're KIDS for Christ's sake...

only if you truly understood...


Had a few clients out in Pakistan. What a horrible thing to happen. I mean ........killing children. All because locals were fighting back. All in retaliation. Yet people have the courage to say no muslims fight back. They do....and this is what they get for it.

I'm not sure how many have been in that area but it's really rough out there. That country is chaos.

Not to pick nits too much but pakistan is not the middle east. if you want to refer to it by geographic location, SW Asisa is more appropriate or south asian.

the problem is that even the locals can't agree on "fighting back". if they would ALL band together and fight back there would be less of this. but they are almost as tribal as the afghans and nobody can agree or is willing to step up as a whole and say ENOUGH!. there are a few places in IRAQ that did this with al-queda and successfully drove them out of town. Hell their own intel services are split by political divisons. one supports the taliban and the other doesn't. that does not bode well for future security

the biggest issue in this part of the world is culture says Tribe > Family > Traditional trive allies > country and until that culture is changed there will always be this kind of shit going on

Here Helliontt, here boy. He should be on his way, he wants knives and alcohol gone too. What a drag.

On topic, it is very sad. I am a sucker for children and have a huge soft spot in my heart for them. Seeing children harmed like this makes my blood boil.

And the Center piece to all this carnage?

GUNS.

 

[svtfocus2cobra]

I had a Pakistani professor in 07 that had nothing but bad things to say about Bush, America and our wars. I wonder how he feels now?

Lol. There you are. Good boy. Yes had nothing to do with the bad men using them. Just Guns guns guns. If they killed them with pencils would you be crying out to ban those too?

 

[canadianbullitt]

And the Center piece to all this carnage?

GUNS.

Should there be a vote for biggest troll in recent months? I vote for this guy.

Back to topic, weird it took so long for someone to post this. It was all over the news here. Sickening!

 

[CobraBob]

I was saddened and angered when I heard this news the other day. The brutal madness around the world just gets worse every day.

Is this a ****ing joke? GTFO with that shit. That has nothing to do with what they did. They are terrorists and you think banning guns over here will have anything to do with the crap they pull over there? Go home you're drunk.

So more like inner city Thug life? It truly is sad that this has happened, but how do you change it?

lol first things first...thanks for pointing out Pakistan is not the middel east. LOL. Many people don't realize that.


i completely agree. More do need to organize and fight as one. completely out of fear, they fail to react. I was in Karachi (business) shortly after the election they recently had. Man what a mess. that country is split between 2 types, people who are scared to leave their homes and do anything about it and idiots who riot the streets. I spend more time at the sheraton than anything. My client would call me in the morning saying it's better for us to stay home today as the streets were bad. The days i did get to go out, i had small talk with shop owners and general public who, without hesitation, stated that fighting back only causes harm to themselves. What a unfortunate outlook and situation.

The funny part is, i was treat so well even though it was clear as day that i'm American lol. Greeted with smiles at every shop, great service at every restaurants, they were intrigued by me and my way of life. Lots of questions, even had a few people ask how hard would it be for them to get into the US.

Probably the biggest reason i have such a hard time generalizing that region and Muslims in general. I've had so many good experiences that it's hard for me to ignore the good. But the bad is also very hard to ignore.

A horrible part to be in.

Somehow the world will end up blaming the US

Somehow the world will end up blaming the US

Wouldn't be the first time the US caused major unrest on purpose.

Edit: I am not saying the US is to blame by any means. Just stating that the US has been a part of some messed up stuff before causing others to not trust us.
