“You can’t kill people here. It’s a funeral!”

[KarlInOhio]

Episcopalians gone wild arguing over Harvard vs. Yale, right?

I always thought Amish funerals were peaceful.

I see what you did there.😉

If you have the courage to drive very slowly through the North End—and look closely at some of the old buildings—you can still see the Hebrew lettering on some of the walls.

The riots of 1968 chased the remaining Jewish folks out of the north end.

It has been 57 years of wasteland since then.

The last Republican mayor of Hartford left office in 1971.

People like this are job security for funeral homes

This story is obviously misinformation. Ilhan Omar said that white men are responsible for all the violence in America. And as a Congresswoman, she ought to know.

[HombreSecreto]

LOL, well played.

Why are people still surprised?

If I said someone was mauled by a dog. Would you expect it to be a golden retriever or a labradoodle? No.

a shooting at a funeral? Did you think it was the Mennonites, Amish, or asians, Latinos, or whites?. No.

Just stay away from them.

“You can imagine what 150 people scrambling out of the church looked like,” Quote of the day, I laughed out loud when I read this. And you are right, no need to look.

And of course the mandatory gap in her teeth.

Marketing ploy by the funeral home?

[Mouton]

Reminds me of a scene from the movie Colors.

[Celtic Conservative]

Nope.

One of the cop shows had a funeral where the casket opened outside and a guy started spraying the crowd with automatic weapon rounds. He got away in a getaway car for a while. Wish I could remember which show it was. I think the guy was part of a rival Asian gang.

Ha.

“Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves.”
Matthew 10:16.

“You can imagine what 150 people scrambling out of the church looked like,”

Like cockroaches when you flip on the light?

Those wacky east coasters. Ya gotta take guns and knives to funerals because you never know which relatives are going to show up.

I remember an episode of Miami Vice very similar.
