People Still Killing Each Other Over PS3s
When the Playstation 3 was launched last November, one of the most shocking things about the launch was the amount of violence reported from multiple locations. A man was shot, campers were robbed, and there was even a report of a drive by BB gun shooting.
The latest report of violence over the Playstation 3 comes from San Francisco. It seems Hani Attia was killed on Monday for doing the right thing. Attia was a witness of a man trying to steal a PS3 from two women who were attempting to sell it to him. Attia confronted the man, got into an altercation and was stabbed. He was announced dead at Saint Francis Memorial Hospital.
This news story really speaks volumes about how people need to set their priorities straight in life. Did Attia really need to be killed over this? Over a video game console? The poor man was just doing the right thing and assisting two women who were being taken advantage of.
If anyone has any information on this murder, I encourage you to contact the San Francisco Police Department at (415) 553-0123 to bring the criminal to justice.

Over here, In Florida, there are a surplus of PS3’s that haven’t been sold. Probably due to high price and now there is no need for one since major Holidas are over.
