*FACEPALM* Idiots!

U.S. forces shoot just-freed Italian hostage, kill guard

Who the fuck is running that show over there, the Three Stooges?

If you'd ever been driving in Italy, you'd know this style of driving is status quo!

If I'd have just been freed, I'd have been driving like my ass was on fire too!

Then again, maybe the captors mangled the brakes & Guiseppe couldn't slow down?
Ciao!

I'd say it qualifies them for an honorable mention for a Darwin Award, in that case.

While I absolutely agree with your take on italian driving, not to mention your thoughts on having just been released...

If you've ever been part of the military, particularly overseas and during war time, you'd know that a vehicle traveling at breakneck speed toward an armed checkpoint and ignoring warning signals, is likely to be shot.

Did y'all miss the part where I said

"Then again, maybe the captors mangled the brakes & Guiseppe couldn't slow down?"

My Father in law is a Vietnam Vet and I would never second guess military personels decisions in a war zone. I was just sayin' is all.

Nobody can take a freakin joke anymore, eh?

Yes, I did. Sorry that I forgot to add the smiley face.

I wasn't taking it personally. I wasn't replying in anger. I was just sayin'...

It's cool.
We're cool!
;)
That's what I hate 'bout the internet.
Lots of misunderstandings! :/

Awesome. :-)

You're right, it's so hard to read expression or intention through words alone!
