In my 10 years living in Manchester, I have to honestly say that it's the road rage capital of New England. This incident frankly doesn't surprise me, although it represents a new step up. Really -- I've yet to see anything to match that area. I never thought I'd live to utter these words, but moving to central Mass. was a breath of fresh air as far as driving stress goes. Of course, working in Greenville, I still get to see rampant ass-holish-ness every day, like on Rt. 31, and especially if I have to drive into Milford......

I never owned one while living there, but to tell you the truth, I'd not even consider a visit to Southern NH these days without a CCW and a can of MACE on me. I know the region and its good and bad points well. VERY well. Sad but true.

Helen Barndollar, manager of Meet Me at Eliza’s, 950 Elm St., said she heard a single gunshot and immediately went to the front of the store and looked out.

Helen just aint all that bright is she?

No she isn't.

So what are the odds that the handgun used was ilegally owned and carried.

 

[Weerd Beard]

No she isn't.

I'll even sweeten that deal! Illigally owned, carried, purchassed...and Tom Reilly will blame Conn's "Lax Gun Laws" for it. Cause of course that would have stopped this foolishness.

That was my first thought as well. I'd say it's probably about 98% chance it was illegal.

You know what? If we just put a really big billboard up near Fenway Park I bet this sort of thing wouldn't happen anymore

Dude I drove into Logan on 90 last night to pick up the wife...saw that friggin billboard...Didn't get a chance to read it (Somebody was trying to kill me with a bus) but none-the-less I flung some choice words, and one tried-and-true hand gesture at it!

Arrrr
