Looks like "high tech" don't work too good. Just what is a "high tech" rifle anyways...?
How is it that they want to put homeschoolers in jail?....
Oh, I forgot...the government is ultra liberal...and...socialist....
I would want to take my kids of the public shools too!!
I assume it's another Playstation 3-related tragedy.
Crazy lutherans.
Is his middle name "Al"?
Name and town. Name and town.
What type of rifle? Don't know the laws about personal firearm ownership in Germany, but where did he get it?
There he was, in the woods, with a gun! Why the *(&# didn't he put the bullet in his head then and there? Why in the world do these losers insist on taking others with them?
oooh! oooh! me! his first name ends in "ein"
