#3 Stale data. HeyJackass says 16 killed / 77 wounded, for a fairly typical ratio of ~ 0.21

I'm starting to wonder if this is just bad shooting (certainly some of it) or whether it is a sign of a 'criminal' justice system. In normal places, if you have a beef with someone, you can take it to court. But if Deshawn burned you on that last eighth, you can't call the cops so you shoot him in the butt and bump up the score on the Shot-in-the-Ass-O-Meter. (currently 81 ytd)
