Police officer kills five in gun attack at Tunisia synagogueAt least five people were killed when a Tunisian police officer went on a shooting spree at Africa’s oldest synagogue during an annual Jewish pilgrimage.

Two visitors including a French citizen, and two police officers, died during the rampage on the island of Djerba on Tuesday, while a third officer died of his injuries on Wednesday.

The gunman was a National Guard member who killed a colleague at a naval installation before opening fire at the El Ghriba synagogue, wounding 10 people and causing panic among the hundreds of visitors to the site.

Sometimes I think the world would be a better place without religion and without guns.

I thought the forum consensus was that only Police should have guns...so confusing...

The most important aspect of this is that this is another attack on Jewish people for simply being Jewish, not that a gun was involved or that it was a police officer.
