Italian man enraged over laundromat fumes kills 3

ROME (AP) — An elderly man has shot and killed three members of a family who owned a laundromat in southern Italy, apparently incensed by a years-long battle over the smoke and fumes emitted by the washing machines.
The ANSA news agency reports that the suspect used an automatic weapon to shoot and kill the mother in front of the laundromat and two adult children as they tried to flee. He also seriously wounded the father, who was at home, in a Christmas Eve massacre Saturday in the tiny town of Genzano Di Lucania, near Potenza and southeast of Naples, ANSA says.
The suspect, Ettore Bruscella, 77, was immediately taken into custody.
ANSA reports that Bruscella and the Menchise family had a long-running legal feud over the laundromat's chimney.

What kind of washing machines have smoke or fumes?

I assume it meant that smell coming from laundromats and dry cleaners.

Perhaps the pollution controls were broken and the owners weren't fixing them.

This is Italian culture. Italians are a murderous group.

That's why my family did not want to move to Middle Village or Glendale. Italians always have a feud. In this case it was a laundromat chimney. In Middle Village it could be parking space, overgrown roses, or whatever. That's how Italians are.

As for "what kind of fumes", there probably were fumes coming from the dryers.

I think he's trying to find some excuse to go all anti-perchloroethylene . . . after all, California banned the stuff for dry cleaning back in 2007. (California likes banning stuff. Unless it's immoral or suchlike.)

It could be vapors from a dryer, but that's not harmful. Or perhaps perc like Olog says, but the story doesn't quite say that.

They've had a fascist government since 2008, and an appointed government since a month ago. Think that might influence their behavior a bit?

Yes, a culture so murderous that Rome, a city of over three million people, just recorded a new yearly record for homicides with a grand total of..............................20.

You want the elected fascist-majority government to give the appointed PM and appointed cabinet of technocrats a "vote of confidence" . . . that's even more hilarious.

He's appointed. By a power from outside the country. The elected fascists won't have any power if they don't back him up.

I must have missed the part of the Italian Constitution where PMs are ever elected.

Your ignorance of parliamentary systems of government is appalling.

Do Italians still live in Rome? I thought it was all African immigrants by now.

I stand by my statement about Italians being a murderous ethnic group. Italians brought organized crime and mass murder to America. Italians were the ones who started trafficking enormous amounts of drugs into this country. In Italian communities, the Italian mobster/murderer/traffickers are not the bad guys. That's Italian culture.

Southern Italians. Not northern Italians, they gave us the Renaissance! :D In fact, you should check out this map that I pointed SMAZ to:

From https://hbdchick.wordpress.com/2011/11/16/all-i-want-for-christmas/

Inbreeding in Italy (percent cousin marriages, 1930-1964):



Italy PISA scores:



Map of IQ in Europe:



Hajnal line:



(West of line, people got married late, and spouses were close in age, there was little inbreeding, and many, as much 10% never married. East of line, people married early and there was a great disparity in age between husband and wife).

Notice anything interesting?

Interestingly enough, that map confirms what I've always known.

That Puglia is the "other South".

The North Carolina of Italy.

OTOH, I doubt that NC would have popularly elected an openly gay governor....twice.
