The author travelling round America doing research for his new book 'The kindness of America' has been shot and killed

I read that his injuries were 'non life threatening'?

"irony at its finest! god love his friends and family x"

sadly it is all too ironic a title, reminds me of the old latin american tune with the line `Guns and coca cola come from america,guns and coca cola, working for the yankee dollar' quite a few levels of irony there.Sad for all who knew him tho

hmmm ! i have heard of the andrews sisters song 'rum and coca cola' (those 40's weekends have a lot to answer for), but not guns and coca cola.

so which song is the adaptation of the original ?

am intrigued now - i can feel some googling coming on !

Ironic to say the least but it shows how unpleasant the States can be at times.
