When you arm illiterates whom are not coherent and can’t form a simple statement this is what you get. Instead of being constructive in argument, he resulted to arm. Woes of a failed nation.

Which exam?, some can't even spell thier name correctly....they should go back to using balton, then create a special police force that are allowed to carry arms, like SWAT
