6 people including an 8-month pregnant woman we're having a barbecue in their backyard yesterday at about 10 p.m. as we have been having very very on seasonably warm weather here in the eastern part of the USA. The temperature actually yesterday was 22 degrees Centigrade which is an incredibly incredibly warm temperature for this time of year here. In the middle of the barbecue meal two gunmen appeared out of nowhere from either side of the house in the backyard 1 with a 40 caliber pistol and another with a kind of AK-47 automatic rifle. They proceeded to machine gun and shoot 14 people at The Barbeque killing six of them. I am not sure if they are counting the eight-month-old unborn child as an additional murder victim or not but in my opinion that should be 7 people killed. In the violence in the United States is mounting and is apparently past the point of no return. Having been abroad for the past 8 years and now being back here for the past 8 months there is a real palpable sense of danger a kind of menacing feeling everywhere you walk. I constantly look behind me and don't stand near the edges of Subway platforms as several people this year alone in Brooklyn and the Bronx have been pushed in front of oncoming trains.
