ZAMBOANGA, Philippines (Reuters) - Four people were killed and five wounded in the southern Philippines when a hand grenade they were playing with during a drinking session exploded, police said on Tuesday.

The accident happened as the victims were passing around the grenade, pulling out and putting back its pin, while they were drinking in a house in Zamboanga city late on Monday, police said.

"They were playing with it like a toy. It was a deadly game," an occupant of the house told the police.

The gene pool just got a little cleaner.

Send a BIG box of grenades to Ted Kennedy. And a bottle of Mexican rot gut whiskey. Make that two bottles.

I don't see how they can be called "victims", a victim is an innocent bystander. These guys were more like "inevitable consequences".
