The girls living there managed to flee. Cops were called and when they arrived at the scene, the guy was on the stairs threatening them. Pepper spray didn't work on him, but they managed to subdue him anyway. Some got hurt, but the guy is safely stored in a mental hospital - as it should be.

Question: How would that same incident have turned out in the USA?

The guy would have been shot before the apartment door hit the floor.
(For those of you with no sense of humor, google the meaning of "hyperbole")
The truth is absolute. Life forms are specks of specks (...) of specks of dust in the universe.
Why settle for normal, when you can be so much more? Why settle for something, when you can have everything?
