That looks like an interesting book. Looks like a companion volume to this one, a personal story about the Hutu's genocide of the Tutsis:-

They made a decent film of it too.

I read that one, too.

Yeah? Perhaps we share a liking for these real-life horror stories... living in relatively safe countries, it's difficult to imagine what life is like if suddenly your neighbours are coming at you with a machete.

^ HaHa! But I think Trollheart's Dublin trumps Florida tbh. In Dublin even the mice form into gangs and are out to get you. As for me, I'm pretty lucky; I just have to dodge shoot-outs between rival drug cartels on my way to work - and some mornings there are no corpses at all !

****ing amazing! Are you people all just damn crazy over there?

Black School child almost shot dead for asking the way to school

Yeah it's true. One thing you do NOT want to be in a mice gang is a rat.

Quote:

Brennan Walker missed his bus and didn’t have his cell phone when he decided to knock on the door of a family home to ask directions to the school, according to the local Fox affiliate.

“Then she started yelling at me and she was like ‘why are you trying to break into my house,'”
Didn't happen.
