Title: Unexpected Consequences
Post by: Jimbro3738 on 2015-02-18, 11:40:46
This one happened recently.

A woman buys a handgun to protect herself. Her three year old son reaches into her handbag to get a toy, grabs around and inadvertently discharges the gun, shooting her.

This happened just yesterday.

Islamist Faction in Libya Now Strikes From the Sky
By DAVID D. KIRKPATRICK
The Islamist-backed faction Libya Dawn said it had launched its first airstrike, targeting opponents in the town of Zintan in an escalation of the civil conflict.

The airstrike was carried out using American jet fighters.

Sadly on that issue you reap what you sow but still terrible.

As for the Libya mess blame the West for another example of onterfering. Now the place is awash with militias, two governments and falling apart. They should bring the monarchy back.

The monarchy is what sowed all that trouble in the first place.

Some people simply like monarchies. Americans not so much.

Correct.  Monarchs are boring--we prefer movie stars.   :knight:  :cheers:

Oh dear mjsmsprt40 yet again you show how wonky Americans are with a little bit of knowledge of the outside world. Just for you I would remind that Libya had a parliament and constitutional monarchy and the King who was quite old had went overseas for an important operation and while away a certain wacky Colonel whom you should know of mounted a coup and took over the country. He dispensed with all parties etc so blame the right man.

Perhaps they could resurrect Qaddafi … to prevent it? :)

Great title. Unfortunately posters are not at the level of the thread's title.

Nice try there OakdaleFTL but puts you in the same poor corner of my Chicagoan. Just another way of not admitting what is!
