The sense of reality gets lost - feels like some people think they're living a movie.

Christ I am surprised they show him getting shot.


I think for some people that is the case, like a game on a computer.

I suspect the Russians will find and get even with this guy, and his family. That's how the mob works.

Concur.

Whereas if it were an Ambassador from one of the 'western' countries; All we would see would be handwringing, lots of words condemning the act and that would be about it!

And some would sympathise with the perpetrator, saying that the west has brought such actions upon itself because the perp came from some oppressed minority/whatever.

That gunman was almost ready to open fire on others afterwards, looking at where he shifted his trigger finger to.

He had it outside the trigger guard, then went into a double handed grip with finger inside.

Lucky.
