#1 Shades of Seven Samurai!

Call me old-fashioned, but dead commies still make me happier than dead anything else. I know, I'm a sentimental fool....

Wonder if Bollywood will pick this story line up? Where is Sam Peckinpahmunjab when you need him?

#2 Ah. The tried and true "that's all I can stands, I can't stands no more" attitude thing. Popeye would be proud. Guns don't kill people, accurate intelligence does. Reminds me of the James-Younger Gang's little foray into Minnesota. Ouch!

Mark IV - Sam Peckinpahmunjab - priceless!

#3 First thing that popped into my mind, too: The Great Northfield, ~~Minnesota~~ Jharkhand raid...

#4 Shades of Seven Samurai!

Great Mark IV, now I have that Marlboro Man theme song going through my head. :D

#5 Big mistake to kill those guys. Now you've pissed the Maoist off.

#6 Some random thoughts, Lucky:

What part of "tried to storm" and "impending attack" makes you think that the Maoists were praticing peaceful agrarian berry-gathering when assailed by these villagers?

What part of "hold sway in 14 of the mineral-rich stateâs 18 districts" makes you think that peaceful nonviolent resistance is a more successful tactic?

Is the name, "People's War Group" any indication that they might already be somewhat vexed?

A Maoist who is NOT pissed off, is some kind of revisionist, and will be killed by all the real Maoists at the first inkling of contentedness.

Here is some background on Happy Maoists not bothering anyone

#7 Easy there, Mark IV. Lucky is just the site's practitioner of absurdist humor.

#8 This is why we don't have all these 'freedom' groups in America roaming around and terrorizing people. Because we would just take out our semi-auto's and shoot them full of lead.

God bless the NRA.

#9 Mark IV, the clue was in Lucky's use of "Maoist" in the singular.

#10 Well, that's what I get for posting after mowing the lawn.

Though it was a troll, and I was actually admiring my uncharacteristic restraint.

The sun... everywhere, beating down... driving me mad... must... find... gin and tonic....

#11 Mark IV - LOL... I bet you mowed the shit outta that lawn, too! Passion is GOOD, man! I liked your Maoist link, too. Just shows to go ya that anger management is a growth industry (snicker)... Now given your source for the link, should we be worried about your sanity? This is like Fred spending all that time reading the PakiTimes - scary - and I'm sure it's just not good for you guys to be browsing such shit too much! Go read some LGF, FrontPage, and NRO - for balance! Grins, bro.

#12 "Maoists" is a dead giveaway - not even Mao knew what it meant on two consecutives days. The creme de la creme of stupid commie dinosaurs - or just bandits, there's not much difference (if any).

#13 I LIKE that phrase: "God bless the NRA." If we didn't have the NRA, then we'd be disarmed completely, and probably have "liberators" like those maoist fools tring the same thing here.
