A grenade has exploded at an engagement party in Burundi, killing 16 people, including the couple to be married.

Killed 16, injured 10 others. How does that work? Was it a group hug around the bomb?

A brother of the bride had the grenade on him. One report says he detonated it when he was not allowed to address the family at the celebrations.

Let that be a lesson to everyone, the next time someone wants to give a toast, let him give a bloody toast!

Reminds me of that building collapse in Israel that killed like 100 people, including the couple.

Wow... someone was having a bad day... :eek:

probably tossed it into the air where it exploded, there the shrapnel would more likely hit more people in the head than if it exploded on the ground.

and all because one person wasn't allowed to speak...

Bite me.

Bite me.

You wish, but I wouldn't want to contract analphabetism.

Why ever not? You appear to be quite anal about everything else.

And you seem quite preoccupied with my anus. I don't blame you, it's a tilt-a-whirl of fun. Too bad for you it's connected to a body with a brain.

You're not my type. I prefer those a bit less bitchy.
