ISAF Drops Candy To Afghan Children, Kills 51

This is utterly horrific. Why do bad things always happen to good people?

Mazar-i-Sharif, Afghanistan – In a tragic accident earlier today, aircraft belonging to the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) inadvertently killed 51 Afghans today near the city of Mazar-i-Sharif while attempting to drop candy to a group of children.

Upon impact, the force of the rapidly settling candies caused the sides to explode outward, causing what physics professor Dr. Rosella Schwartz described as, “essentially a 360 degree anti-personnel mine full of chocolate flechettes.”

chocolate flechettes...

“The worst were the peanut M&Ms. The soft chocolate acted as a sabot around the peanuts, so basically these things were candy-coated penetrator rounds.”

LMAO!

A clear case for M&M control laws. We must act before terrorists make use of this awesome new weapon against us. I also propose we immediately act to investigate a possible proliferation of Skittles and Reece's Pieces as weaponry. We must nip this in the bud!...

Following the press conference, Colonel Marshall tried to exit the podium, but tripped and crashed into a group of civilians, killing 9.

And on May 8, several packs of Starbursts inadvertently hit an orphanage and killed 8 children and an adorable kitten named Mittens.

No! not mittens! Have they no heart!?!

The only ones taking it seriously are the 66th Viet Cong Regiment.

ISAF spokesperson Colonel Mark Marshall, who spoke to reporters today at a press conference in Kabul, said the candy drop was only the latest phase of a new operation called “Reese’s for Peaces.” He added that while ISAF regrets the accidental loss of civilian life, it would not deter them working to relieve the suffering of the Afghan people.

I'm innocent I tell you!! You've got to believe me I had nothing to do with this!!
