Shooting Rampage in Hanoi

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/06/18/AR2008061800285.html

Was trying to get clarity on the current financial situation in Vietnam and accidentally ran across this article. Thoughts?

Only made the news because this kind of thing happens so rarely.

Are you worried about being shot in Hanoi? Because you're more likely to contract the bubonic plague or cholera. Or have your currency suddenly become worthless overnight.

Guns = not a problem.

Oh please. I am from the U.S. where this kinda thing has gotten way too common. Not scared at all about violence of any nature in Hanoi, or Vietnam, for that matter.

Was just surprised to see this news. Thats all.

It's a sad state of affairs when the death of five people from gunfire gets nothing more that a *shrug*. I'm from Australia where this sort of thing rarely happens, so yeah, it is a big deal.

Travelgoddess - thanks for posting the article - I too was surprised by the news.
