                 KATMANDU, Nepal –– Nepal's crown prince [b]opened fire in the royal
                 palace Friday, killing the king, queen, a prince, and five others before
                 shooting himself, a senior military official said.[/b]

                 The official said Crown Prince Dipendra, 30, killed all the members of the
                 royal family. The dead included his parents, King Birendra and Queen
                 Aiswarya, and his younger brother, Prince Nirajan.

                 According to the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, the
                 shooting was caused by a dispute over the marriage of the prince because
                 his mother, the queen, reportedly objected to his choice of bride. No
                 other details were immediately available.

                 The crown prince, educated at Britain's Eton College, was heir to the
                 throne.

                 King Birendra, the constitutional monarch, was stripped of power in 1990
                 and a parliamentary government was established.

                 Hundreds of people lined the streets of Katmandu last Dec. 29 to greet
                 King Birendra on his 55th birthday. Schools and government offices were
                 closed as well.

                 The Himalayan kingdom of Nepal is located in South Asia, to the north of
                 India.

D'you think he would have passed a background check?

Does any one in Nepal owns any firearms other than the army, police, and the royals?

darn females.

look what they do to men?;)

I would think the would-be bride is grateful that she didn't marry this obviously unbalanced young man.

So, there's job openings there?

Weird story.

All over a woman.  It figures.

Yup, Nice to be Prince. YOu do your own background check, be your own dist. and FFL, and lastly, sign your own from4's

I say, that's going to put a damper on the annual ball, what.  

Its good to be the King;*),...I mean prince.

Now why doesn't the U.S. "royal" family off it self too? I am sure teddy would like to go on a drunken killing spree someday.

It was staged by the ATF with help from the FBI.  The guy is innocent really.  It was a plot to cover up the moon landing hoax.

He already went on a drunken killing spree,
just don't carpool with him [:D]

I wonder if there are any "Chemtrails" to be found over there..
