Picture a Norman Rockwell townscape with all the townsfolk gathered around for the annual lighting of the Christmas tree. It is a festive evening and several thousand of the residents are gathered round the tree holding hands singing and just so happy to be alive.
The mayor had just purchased a new colored lighting system for the 40 foot Spruce tree and representatives from the lightening company even came out to put up the lights for them. "Yeah" said one of the workmen "We've been putting lights up all over the country this year. Over seventy major cities in all." The workmen hurried out of town in their van once their work was finished. "Looks like our work is finished here mayor. All you've got to do is flip this switch and it will light up the tree. We tested everything and it works perfect. Merry Christmas mayor...see you next year." "Everybody gather round." said the mayor over the PA system. "Its time for the lighting of the tree. Come in close folks so others can squeeze in." The crowd was densely packed and all eyes were on the tree.
The mayor flipped the switch to the lights and no one could have been prepared for what happened next...
In unison, over two thousand 30.06 rifle bullets were fired in all directions massacring the entire crowd. It happened so fast no one even had time to think. Hundreds were slain in an instant by a diabolocal terrorist act.
It seems that inside each of the colored opaque bulbs was a modified rifle bullet. Each of the primers had been removed and the lightbulb filiment was inserted into the primer hole and set directly into the gunpowder. When the light switch was turned on the filiment glowed red hot and ignited the gunpowder which fired each bullet. The series circuit fired all the bullets at once. Diabolically ingenious!!!
Over and over the same thing happened as each tree was lit up that night. Thousands were murdered as the terrorists made their way out of the country on a private jet.
