first of all, I think this is a awful event. Even though most of the police force in Egypt is corrupted, I still think its sad that these people were killed. I was also shocked by the lack of detail given in this report. In america if a event like this happened we would have much more information about it, it seems like Egyptian news is down playing some tragic events because they have become more common.
I disagree - usually when I look at articles about tragic and violent events like these in the States, they are also very brief. Maybe there isn't a lot of information because there are a lot of events like these all over the world (including many in the States), and since CNN is American, they don't have time to research this very heavily.
ReplyDeleteI too believe that is awful. These kind of people should be locked up.
ReplyDeleteThis is pretty messed up, but I think at a point crime like this isn't preventable.
ReplyDeleteI wonder why this person felt the need to kill 5 police officers and some other innocent people. Some people are just messed up.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Paige. Some people really need to get their choices/actions together.
