More proof that my ex's current wife is an idiot.

There was a shooting in Copenhagen the other day - I heard just a snippet about it on the news, but hadn't thought much about it. Shootings are rare here, as there's a strict gun control policy here.

Today I get an email from Amy:

"I read today there was some shooting in Copenhagen Denmark in front of a cafe. Possibly gang related. Was that near you? Did you know any of the individuals involved in the shooting? Hopefully no one you knew were the ones shot. Have they caught the people that did the shooting. I read they four that were shot were rushed to the hospital. I guess one has already died due to this shooting....I hope the other three will be alright. Let me know!!!"


First:

I don't live IN Copenhagen. I live in the suburbs. It's 20 minutes away if I'm driving. It's like living in Boston or living in Quincy. It's a burb, it's not the city itself.

Amy knows I don't live IN Copenhagen.

Second:

There's almost 6 million people in Denmark, and 3.7 million in the greater Copenhagen area. I have no fucking idea who the people were that were shot, who their assailants were and who their doctors are or what hospitals they're in.

I'm not about to go to the hospital and ask how they're doing - she should be able to google the shooting and find out for herself.

I don't ask her about shootings in Wichita or Kansas City, why the hell is she asking me about a shooting here? I guarantee that there's more shootings there than there are here.
