Or was this thing called life just too much for him?

an archaeologist who found the remains near Lima, Peru.

An archaeologist who doesn't even know history. The Spaniards shoot plenty of people in Mexico long before they got to Peru.

Cortez was massacring Aztecs in 1520, so this Incan from 1536 is probably not the first gun victim in the western hemishere.

But, hey, catchy headlines are cool. And as Dan Rather's producer says -- it's up to the public to figure out if the news is true or false.

well, you see what happened was, there were these really peaceful spainish guys that liked to float around on these large ships, that were kinda the SUV of ships. well, this pistol here, he stowed away with the help of the shipUV and while on the long trip he began corrupting the swords, bows and spears so that when they got off the shipUV they immediately got violent, and this pistol led the charge.. because we all know that people don’t kill people, guns do.
