WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

NAMIBIAN Police regional commander in the Ohangwena region, Commissioner Armas Shivute, has warned that his officers will arrest anybody who fires gunshots in the air in celebration or in mourning.
“We are going to arrest anybody who is found shooting with a firearm at a gathering of mourners, or a wedding party in our region,” Shivute said sternly in an interview with Nampa on Tuesday following a report that a 58-year-old man, Ambrosius Shikololo, was shot and injured in the lower back while mourning his uncle’s death by shots fired in the air at about 18h00 on Monday.
He added police have consistently urged members of the public to stop this practice without success.
It is alleged that Shikololo and relative Fabianus Teofelus, 48, started firing shots into the air to demonstrate their sorrow at hearing about the death of their uncle Jonas Haimbodi at Onghala village in the Ohangwena region.
“Both of them were using pistols to shoot in the air,” the police commissioner said, adding that Teofelus allegedly shot Shikololo by mistake.
The injured man is now admitted at the Oshakati Intermediate Hospital, and his condition was said to be critical on Tuesday.
Shivute said Onghala is one of the villages that are currently cut off from the service centres by the floods in the region.
As such, community members carried the seriously injured Shikololo on top of their heads through the oshanas (floodplains) full of water to the dry land at the neighbouring Ouhongo village, before he could be rushed to hospital.
The police commissioner said Teofelus was arrested on a charge of attempted murder, with case number CR 97/04/2011.
He already appeared in the Eenhana Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday, and his case was adjourned to 23 May to allow for further police investigations.
The suspect was released on bail of N$500. – Nampa
