Don't you people understand it was just a clever way of murdering his wife?

Has to be... Right?.. Anyone?

Quote from niall09 :

After several unsuccessful attempts, he got a .22-calibre handgun and blasted two holes in the wall.

I think you guys are missing the point. He wanted holes to route the wires, and he made holes to route the wires. Success.

It's not like he was trying to remove a wheel from his car with a shotgun. Jeez.

Would the hole made by a .22 be large enough for the cable to pass through ?

Sarcasm, or are you serious?!

Good thing he didn't need to install a toilet or something.

Ah, the Brainy Ricochet of 2007 - what a great classic.

He's being serious, of course. Americans don't understand sarcasm.

Ask any married man who's tried to do some form of handiwork with his wife present.

Quote from Hankstar :

This one speaks for itself. Short version: little girl gets sick, parents pray for a month instead of going to hospital, girl dies. Parents blame themselves - for not having enough faith.

Maybe they didn't have enough money for offering healthcare for their dying daughter

Quote from MattxMosh :

I blame modern science for keeping the idiots alive.

If it weren't for the internet, nobody but the locals would have heard of this, so nobody would know how truly stupid this man is.

Or smart.... I need to install a dish

It's just the ability of the internet to dissiminate information that makes people think more stupid things are happening than it used to happen. BTW this is not the only place stupid things with weapons has been done. I have a link at home to a video of 4 Iraqi's using AK's to dislodge a 150mm round from the ground, needless to say all 4 were vaporized instantly with a red tint of the sand 15 foot in all directions...

That guy is insane though

I don't know - I find the man a genius. Having her stand behind the wall was a smart move for two reasons: a. obvious: make it look like an accident and b. cunning: in case she survived he wouldn't have to put up with the bitching about the bloodstains on the carpet.

a related question:
what kind of flimsy houses do they build in america anyway that a .22 is able to penetrate an outer wall?

Haha. I cant see how a .22 can go through a wall and someones chest. Anyways, very stupid thing to do.

Wood and plasterboards I guess.

I've had occasions I wished some walls I had to drill through were like that.

Shotglass, didn't notice that post of yours.

For a .22 pellet , to travel through, plasterboard and wood, then enter someone, it would have to be about 800fps!!!

The assailant had vsync turned off.

Retarded thread title, but a more retarded incident of course.

Whatever, morons everywhere.

EXHIBIT A:

er...800fps is also a valid measurement of velocity...
as in: 800 FEET PER SECOND

(FPS is usually used in preference to MPH/KPH when stating muzzle velocity)

You have obviously never been to America... or at least you were drunk or something while you were here. Houses over here are built of the cheapest materials in the WORLD. You could put a fist through a wall if you wanted to. The house we live in has four fake pillars in front. But they aren't even like NICE fake. At the top the square part doesn't line up with the roof and at the bottom it's just a plastic/wood base that is obviously just resting on the concrete. It is so obviously STUPID it's unbelievable. Everything is total CRAP. The siding on the house can crack and warp easily, light fixtures on the outside rust, the wood trim on around the windows and roof was replaced last year with cheap aluminum paneling because the wood rotted away in 10 years (although that was partly because of the damned woodpeckers.) Even the deck is crap.

On the inside, the wndows have fake plastic panes that look ugly as hell. The cabinets are crap, as are most of the standard appliances that came with the house. All the wood trim looks like garbage. The doors don't close right in the summer months, and they aren't real doors, they're hollow fake crap doors that you can't even slam shut because it's like trying to slam a piece of paper. The pool isn't bad but the pumps and system are garbage, so we have at least a few problems every year... I could go on.

Oh yea, and if that wasn't enough. We discovered two years ago that the whole front wall of the house was bowing outward for some strange reason (leaving a half inch gap in the floor next to it.) So in the basement there are a bunch of rachet clamps with rope literally PULLING the wall back against the house.

The ONLY decent thing about the house is the driveway, which is really nice paving stones, and not black pavement. (Although it SUCKS for driving R/C cars or riding skateboards or scooters or rollerblading on...)

And no we don't live in a cheap house. It's somewhere between $750,000 and $1,000,000 (well, probably half that with the recent housing collapse.) That's just how stuff is over here. People don't care about quality as long as it looks better from afar than their neighbor's house. You need to get into the $4-5 million territory before materials and construction even begin to approach acceptable levels.

i know it was a setup for some stupid joke about paper mache but i figured it wasnt as funny as i initially though

Which also brings up the question why he wasn't able to drill through such a wall in the first place...

well, I once heard a NRA member utter the words "guns are not toys, but tools, and should be handled with that in mind", but I didn't think someone could take it that literally.

Quote from Bladerunner :

Indeed so as are m/sec but it was easier for me to make a computer-related pointless comment than a scientific one relating to velocity measurements.

lol exactly... this thread is just full of so much ignorance and stupidity, i don't even know where to start. not only from the topics discussed, but the people discussing them
