Wasn't he dead yesterday?

I realise it's not always easy to know if someone is dead or alive, especially if they're running around killing people, and they're Muslim too.

But it's a bit odd to be getting news reports of fatal shootage yesterday, and then being told the shooter is alive and well today - especially when the perp was 'shot multiple times' in an army camp, surrounded by professionals with weapons.

No weapons. Only the MPs carry weapons except on active service, as I understand it.

As for inaccurate reported, well, that's a real shock, isn't it?

Call me naive - no, really - but I'd have expected army medics to have a better grip on whether people who are oozing blood from multiple gunshot wounds are alive or dead.

It was, by all accounts, the army reporting that was incorrect.

More fun than astro-bingo, more pertinent than VR-clip since, after all, 2008 marks the nadir of the IP intelligence. Choose one board to play.
