Groom accidentally kills three relatives at wedding

[kickyourass]

OK two questions 1) who the fuck brings a loaded assault to their own wedding, and 2) who the fuck fires the damn thing in close proximity to their friends and family?

God damn people are stupid.

 

[no one really]

Idiot...

He should of been aiming at the in-laws.

Yes, he should have done that.

 

[Bladecatcher]

Because nothing like this ever happens Christian countries. Like, America for example- and especially not in the south.

 

[InnerRebellion]

All I can say is...dumbfuck. Who even thinks of that?

 

[Housebroken Lunatic]

The word you're looking for is racist.

No "predjudiced" perhaps. Not racist.

 

[cheese_wizington]

Wow that's just a massive fucking buzzkill.

 

[Housebroken Lunatic]

Thanks Lunatic, I was so indignant at the rampant misuse of "xenophobia" that the red mist descended and I couldn't think of the correct word myself. Not sure I agree with your definition of racism but either way "prejudiced" is a better word for what I was saying - Well said and I stand corrected.

You're welcome.

Although, both racism and xenophobia might certainlyn play into the reasons why some people in the thread say what they say of course.

 

[Housebroken Lunatic]

Wow that's just a massive fucking buzzkill.

Yes. Buzzkill indeed.

Dude, that sucks

I'm trying to figure out if it's better or worse that he hit his own relatives rather than his wife's.
Probably better if they're like him.

From a selfish standpoint he would have less in laws to deal with but the ones left would really dislike him, but hitting your own family means they hate you and you have to see them a lot.

Not the ones you shot, luckily. Maybe.

That's precisely why people should never be allowed to handle weapons unless they are competent enough to use them correctly. Isn't firing into the air pretty much illegal everywhere due to the deaths the bullets can cause when their ballistics trajectory brings them back down?

 

[ParkourMcGhee]

And that makes it a reasonable excuse for the people in general to accept it when people evidantly DIE because of said tradition?

You know, we have traditions about dragging a fucking spruce tree into our houses around the winter season and decorate it. Sure it might look stupid, and sure some idiots get their houses burned down because they connect these litle electrical lights to the tree that fail and set fire to the tree, but there's a limit to acceptable mistakes and stupidity.

People who have put their hands on a gun in their life should know that it is DANGEROUS, and that you SHOULDN'T play around with it like that. Yet because of "tradition" these morons do it anyway.

So really, how long can you feasibly blame things on "tradition" without holding the fucktards who uphold this stupid tradition accountable for it?

Actually there's at least thousands (if not more) of cases of "celebratory shooting" every year, a very small minority end in any injury whatsoever - as you say with the lights - some idiots are bound to fail.

Also to them it's like saying "don't drive, you could crash" (I know it's not the same, but lots of accidents happen while driving, and you could technically live without it). That doesn't mean people shouldn't think about that they're doing - you're a complete fucktard if you can't shoot up rather than horisontally, and if you can't shoot a rifle, what is it doing in your hands? But that's an individual error, not a general scope of things.

It's tradition :/

"it is a recent tradition, only 18 years old, but it is a tradition none the less!"

Seriously, firing AK-47s into the air can only be a tradition a maximum of 63 years old, that's not exactly an 'ancient cultural folkway'. That's an absolute, absolute maximum though, it's probably more like fifty years since the AK 47 was the first mass produced and circulated assault rifle. It's predecessor was the StG 44 developed for use by SS troops and I'm guessing the nazis weren't in the habit of handing them out.

I mean, it's not religious or deeply rooted in arab culture, it's just that cretins really like loud noises when they're happy. You see it on Guy Fawkes day, you see it on the 4th of July and you see it at these weddings, the only difference is that you can get an assault rifle dirt cheap there so they use that.

Actually it's not just AKs either. The older form of the tradition uses shotguns so there's no real way of knowing how old it could be. I think AKs are just a substitute because they can fire more and more rapidly, and as you say are more available due to money or recent wars.

Also it's not just the arab culture, as I said it's in Serbia too, and weren't people in the wild west also frequently celebrating with gunplay? The tradition could be as old as 100 years if not more.

Hahahahahaha!

 

[SmartIdiot]

You got your source from the telegraph. Do some proper research next time.

 

[Xyliss]

Wow...That...That's a new level of stupid.

I think the wife may have...
/sunglasses
Dodged a bullet.

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

Dammit, ninja'd!

 

[dietpeachsnapple]

Before we chide the turks too hard, let us remember that plenty of Americans have killed themselves and others in the same fashion. Perhaps not a wedding, but the physics remain the same in both environments.

 

[ars731]

That must have been one awkward honeymoon.

 

[Carlston]

What they get for playing with guns.

In the future, respect a weapon of war. It's not a party favor.
