For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Thirteen dead?  Was it a gun-free zone?

(I'm hearking back to my postulation about what a better world it would be if every person who wanted one could have at least a single-shot .22 rifle with ammo.  Every person.)

Well, I was just wondering if he used Ketchup, Ranch, Mayo, BBQ sauce, Fry sauce, or maybe something else in India besides Curry sauce. That might have been the reason he was shot dead.
