    Come on, he shoots two of them and the other two turn and start running,
and he shoots them in the back.  How could he think they were going to slit
his throat when they were running away?  (Sure, we don't KNOW they were 
running away, but can you think of any other reason they would turn their
backs on an angry man using a gun?)  Even you John Wayne afficianados out
there should realize that shooting people in the back is something the Duke
wouldn't do.
    The attitude seems to be:  "Well, he just got so excited by shooting the
first two that he just felt like shooting the other too as well.  Wouldn't you
do that too?"  If any of you answered yes to that question, you too can join

Sorry I couldn't resist this one.  I guess there was a second incident
when some people were murdered!  Could hou2h!reed fill us poor uninformed
readre's in on this new murder.
