look how they count  road  deaths, then look at how  many firearms are unregistered, look at  how the police  sell guns, look at how the army has firearms  go  missing. Then  read a  TAT report about 50billion tourists  coming......tomorrow, and as a  final insult ask a 7-11  girl or any shop owner to do maths at any level.

Just kidding.....50 billion!

Sound like just one or two shots using Buckshot shells . I don't think birdshot would be used.

I wonder what 'mercifully' gunned down would look like?

 

Mercy is the quality of being forgiving or compassionate, and when you act mercifully, you behave in a forgiving or compassionate way.

 

So there was some compassion involved ... :clap2:
