Fed Ex shooting. A FedEx employee wearing ammunition draped across his chest “like Rambo” opened fire
All legal in Georgia.
In addition to a shotgun, the gunman also had an undisclosed number of molotov cocktails,
All legal in Georgia.
The shooter first shot a security guard at a shack outside the building.. Everything up to the split second the shell impacted the guard, was under Georgia’s new law, completely legal.
He was a white male.
Is anyone really surprised? Guns are more important than people inside the state lines of Georgia…..
On the fifth day of protests, still 20,000 showed up in Tbilisi to protest their president’s mismanagement of last summer’s war…
If you can remember, he launched an attack upon the Russians in South Ossetia at the insistence of Karl Rove and John McCain’s campaign chairman, in order to create an international crises that was hoped to make Obama appear unready to hold the reins of power..
The ploy backfired all around, and especially in Georgia, where the Russians quickly set up a defensive perimeter and Georgia was left wondering who their president was representing… them? or an American political party half a world away….
His opponents say the 41-year-old leader has made too many mistakes to remain in power until 2013. They have a point.
The twenty thousand who showed up on the fifth day, is down from the 60,000 who originally protested on Thursday… That gives Mikheil some breathing room… In central Asia, protest are supposed to grow on succeeding days… not diminish.
The protesters are asking for Saakashvili’s resignation, but with diminishing turnout, it appears that will not happen… For his part, Mikheil has asked to engage in discussions with the opposition to obtain some form of resolution… Most believe some funding of the opposition is coming across the border from Russia… since no one has money in Georgia anymore….
Ironically both Mikheil and Barack got their original funding from the same person…. George Saros…
The current leadership has learned how NOT to behave from its predecessor… We are fortunate for their wisdom….

As a parent, this bothers me. It brings up the question as to why he would do it?
Obviously it’s intent is to send a signal. “Like I am master”; “I’m beyond Reproach”; “I am in complete Control”; “My needs trump all Others”.
It also says I don’t care what society thinks; I’m doing exactly what I want.
With today’s technology, were it a misplaced squeeze, it could have easily been reshot and spliced. And with Republican hopes of a Senate victory, you know their top analysts all looked at it before it was sent out?
Puzzling… why was it left in?
Yes, it supports the Republican’s version of family values.. “keeping it in the family” But it also shows a very callous nature on the person playing the role of the father…
What it shows is that in that arrangement, a daughter’s place is to serve the needs of her father, and not what I always thought should occur… a father’s role to grow and nurture his daughter…
When one places this scene in context with his last election, where his Vietnam-ed missing limbed opponent was deemed to be too un-American for Congress… you see a psychologically disturbing trend…
This is one sick man, folks.. This is the last thing Congress needs right now.
You really have to ask… why would anyone do this?
And I won’t even bring up what it does to the daughter who now has to live with this the rest of her life…
Her first college date: “Oh…. so you’re THAT daughter….”
Just a couple of coincidences. To the Chinese, the number 8 means prosperous. The Olympics began on that date, and based on the number of records being broken, the Chinese should be commended. Incidentally, American viewership is up….way up…..
Coming from an American official, the invasion of Ossetia being timed on that same day, 888, was no coincidence…..
That invasion and its Russian reply, has recently convinced Poland to secure those controversial missiles from the United States. Today Poles marched in the street to celebrate the anniversary of a rare victory over the Russians…..That battle happened exactly 88 years ago.……..
