#4 The modern version of waving sticks and shouting. I wonder how many bullets it took to actually hit twelve people, only three of whom were targets. Heaven help them if they ever get their hands on machine guns -- they might wipe themselves out an entire village per quarrel, but the land would be unusable due to lead concentrations forever.

#6 TW I am sure they were using AK-47s and those are able to do full auto. I am sure they expended a case of bullets each too. Pray and spray style.

#7 Ah. That would explain the demonstrably low intelligence of their actions. Its already too late.

#8 Look on the bright side guys (3) less loonies to wield ak-47's. PS do they these weapons out at a coming of age party? Everytime I see images of this area of the planet these people all seem to have ak's or RPG's. Nice place eh!

#9 PS do they [get] these weapons out at a coming of age party?

According to a former co-worker from the border area of Pakistan/Afghanistan, yes, they do.
