Today's Metro has an article about the IRA disarmament. Accompanying photo is captioned "A FATHER AND SON pass the Irish News newspaper offices in Belfast, Northern Ireland yesterday. It was announced that the IRA had decommissioned all their weapons." The headline in the window of the newspaper office reads "IRA WEAPONS GONE". The father and son in the photo are walking away from the camera, but the son (maybe 7-8 years old) is looking back over his shoulder with a worried expression. Here's the kicker: the son is brandishing a highly realistic toy rifle.
I am now convinced that someone in Metro editorial with responsibility for photos has a very wry sense of humor indeed.
