(Abc.net.au)   Gang members attack the school fete and shoot the local magistrate on stage. Does everybody a) run for their lives, b) call the cops, or c) shoot back leaving three dead and a severed head hanging from the powerlines?   (abc.net.au) divider line 223

That's the Chicago Papua New Guinea way.

Sybarite: That's the Chicago Papua New Guinea way.

Yeah I thought "Man this shiat in Chicago is seriously getting out of hand" before I clicked the link.

Well, it's a good thing everyone had guns to keep the violence down
 
2009-09-30 09:40:40 AM
Those guys are going to get a shiat-load of detention.

May not stop anyone else from interrupting a school function, but there are at least 4 who won't do it again.

The villagers retaliated by killing three of the gang members. One was beheaded and the head hung on a power pole.
Another suspected gang member was killed the next day.


Hmmm, how do we get these guys to come to Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Detroit and Chicago?

Sad thing is, there would probably be less murder, rape and robberies if the Olympics are held in New Guinea than in Chicago.

If you read TFA the villagers did OK. They managed to kill 3 of the gang members despite the gang having the element of surprise and better weapons.

Seeing a fellow gang members head on a pole might send a message to the gangs that such overt violence will backfire on them. Good job on the villagers for fighting back.

Ain't no fete like a Papua New Guinea fete.

So if one of theirs shoots one of yours, you cut off his head.

Thats the Papua New Guinea way!
 
2009-09-30 11:13:44 AM
But was it a fete worse than death?

Oh.. it was? Dang.

We already have them in Chicago.. the CPD shoot first then ask questions.

In this case, it was a good thing that the violence went up.

Exactly. It's like the deterrent effect of capital punishment:

Watching the execution of a prisoner:
Guy 1: Anyone who'd do the things that capital punishment is used for won't be deterred because of capital punishment. That's silly!
Guy 2: *points* He will.

I know this took place in a country full of brown people, but I have a question for all you gunophobes, and please answer yes or no but you can explain later, do you think the outcome would be better if only the gang members had guns?

Either way brown people would haved died.. so you know outcome is positive either way.

i live in texas and even i was expecting it to be here.

heh, this little pub i go to, has a shotgun mounted in easy arms reach just behind the bartender, along with a little stand next to it filled with 12 gauge rounds. right above it is a couple of pieces of wood on which, scrawled in black marker is written the words "WE DONT CALL NO COPS"

its come off the wall a few times if things get to rowdy, though to my knowledge he has never actually fired it

I wouldn't worry about new guinea unless you plan on shooting the local magistrate in the head.

Why didn't they try to reason with them? Or start up some midnight basketball? Why didn't they curl up in the fetal position and dial 911?

Good for them...meet force with overwhelming force...the head on a stick is a nice touch.

Heh, I guess it's fun to think of this as a good resolution to the situation. Yay, they had guns so justice was served...

Of course there are other members of the gang who will likely be out for blood now. I doubt this is the last news story we'll be hearing from that place.

Never heard the word before.


Fête is a French word meaning festival, celebration or party, which has passed into English as a label that may be given to certain events.

It is widely used in England and Australia in the context of a village fête, pronounced /ˈfeɪt/. These are usually outdoor shows held on village greens or recreation grounds with a variety of activities and are organised by an ad hoc committee of volunteers from organisations such as residents associations. Attractions seen at village fêtes include raffles, coconut shies, bat a rat stalls, white elephant stalls, cakes, and home produce such as jam and pickles. Entertainment could include morris dancing, tug of war, fancy dress and pet shows. The American and Canadian equivalent would be the County Fair or City Fair.
