Lethal graduation


Israeli Shot by Palestinian:
High School Graduation Blamed

-Roni Singer Heruti

A man was shot and wounded in central Israel while traveling on Route 6, which at some points runs adjacent to the separation fence with the West Bank. Police said the shots came from the West Bank and struck the driver in the chest.

[I]t appears the man was hit by a stray bullet fired in the air during celebrations at a high school graduation in a nearby Palestinian village.

I hate to think what they do if someone gets a graduate degree!

Indeed...grenade fire for a Bachelor Degree; rocket fire for a Masters Degree; G*d knows what for a PhD.

I was struck [pun intended] by the lawlessness that appears common. How sad, how sad.
