Pakistani lawmaker attacked; child among two killed in Karachi shooting


Pakistani police say two gunmen targeting an ethnic party lawmaker after Eid prayers instead gunned down two others, including a child, in the southern port city of Karachi.
Lawmaker Khawaja Izharul Hasan escaped uninjured in the attack Saturday but the child and a police officer were killed, police officer Pir Mohammad Shah said.
Shah said one of the attackers was also gunned down by police during a chase.
Hasan belongs to the Muttahida Qaumi Movement, which represents the Urdu-speaking population. He was meeting and greeting people after Eid prayers when gunmen struck in a north Karachi neighbourhood.
The party was divided after its self-exiled founder Altaf Hussain uttered anti-Pakistan remarks in London last year. He is wanted in many criminal cases back home.

Like many of King’s books (most notably Carrie) IT is a coming-of-age story which unnerves the viewer with its visceral horror. A bunch of young hugely talented unknown actors play seven misfits aka Losers who are haunted and hunted by hate-filled bullies and the titular antagonist (Bill Skarsgard). This entity represents the sum of all the youngsters (and our) fears. The opposite of love is Fear as Evil/IT well knows and exploits. Fear disrupts, destroys and sucks at the resolve in our souls.
