Go fly a kite...

11 people dead from flying kites...... and getting shot...

Edit: After reading the article, that is pathetic. I feel bad for the two children whose throats were slashed by razor wire on kites, and the stray bullet victims.

Wow.

Islam is behind it in some way or another.

 

[So]

...what kind of ******* burlap sack wearing Pakistani rednecks were at this festival?!?!

Shooting each other? Razor wire strings...wtf...

Edit: to be clear, I'm not lumping all pakistanis in with this group...just saying this is a a bunch of fvcking low class idiots...

Don't you mean God (As in THE god, christan god of course)

No I meant Islam, death and mayhem follows it everywhere.

Maybe someday, when science has advanced far enough, someone will come up with a way for the gun to make a loud noise without it actually shooting a bullet. One can dream, one can dream...

they died cause those idiots used metal string and shot bullets. it has nothing to do with flying kites.

...

strings of death....

Police arrested more than 700 people for using sharpened kite strings or firing guns, and seized nearly 300 illegal weapons during this year?s festival, said Aftab Cheema, a senior Lahore police officer.

kite fighting...i've first heard of it when I read "Kite Runner."

unfortunate that this had to happen. seems pretty prominant in afhganistan and surrounding areas.

I think I would pay for admission to that. Stinks about the kids though.

Someone already invented blanks. Where's the fun making noise without the knowledge that your noise stick can kill someone else?

Sad, they take something calm and peaceful like kite flying, and make it mildly violent and competitive. Next up, yoga classes with swords, and quiet meditation while sitting atop a vibration-sensing bomb.
