Two killed in toy store
shooting
Incident may have involved two rival
groups

Created On: Friday, 28 Nov 2008, 2:29 PM MST

PALM DESERT, Calif. (AP) - Two people were shot to death in a crowded toy store on Black Friday in a confrontation apparently involving rival groups, city officials said.

Palm Desert Councilman Jim Ferguson said police told him two men with handguns shot and killed each other. Ferguson said he asked police whether the incident was a dispute over a toy or whether it was gang-related. He said police told him they were not going to release further details until the victims' relatives were notified.

"I think the obvious question everyone has is who takes loaded weapons into a Toys "R" Us?" he said. "I doubt it was the casual holiday shopper."
More Christmas cheer. (http://www.krqe.com/dpp/news/us/nat_ap_palmsprings_toy_store_shooting_200811281629)

IT appears that two young ladies began to heatedly discuss something. Then, their gentlemen interceeded in the discussion, and found fault with one another's choice of words. So they did the only honorable thing. They shot each other dead.

It may be that, in this case, Darwin may have been defeated, these 4 gentle people , in a toy store, may have procreated before being involved in this specific communication.

You can just shave off the serial number on a gun with some tools. Seung-Hui Cho did that.

You have to shave pretty deep to beat acid raising tecniques.
