Sazer Larsen and Jamie Frosh were rivals in high school. Sazer was athletic and Jamie was a computer geek. It got to the point where Sazer would threaten to kill Jamie on a regular basis. After high school Sazer joined the military. While in the military, he was deployed to Iraq. While in Iraq, there was an IED(implanted explosive device) planted in the tuck he was riding in, and it exploded. Then all these iraqi insurgents came charging at him. He was shot and a bunch of his friends were killed. He was deployed.
After coming home, he had a hard time adjusting to civillian life. On the fourth of July he went to Schneider's restaurant for dinner and met with a high school friend, Alex Cofman, who owned the restaurant. She persuaded him to go to the fireworks that night. While eating, Jamie Frosh and his buddy Gill Graham came over and started taunting him. Sazer pretended to shoot Jamie and told him to back off. Cofman said the same.
When the fireworks started, Sazer jumped out of his seat, turned around, yelled, "They're coming to get us!" and shot Jamie twice in the head, twice in the chest. Cofman had to tackle him before he stopped. Sazer is being tried on the murder of Jamie, and the defense is claiming PTSD and that at the time of the shooting the fireworks triggered a response from his disease in the form of a hallucination. The commonwealth is claiming first degree murder. In the first case, out defense team competed. We got a penalty for having one extra lawyer. Lost by 12 points. I was Cofman, gave my affadavit and all that. We proved he had PTSD but still lost. Then the prosecution team went at the second trial. We proved he did not have PTSD, but lost by five points. Lastly the prosecution went for the third trial. The stupid judge didn't give a verdict, and we lost by one point. It was completely unfair of him not to give a verdict, and he was in intense favor of the other team. The person playing Cofman for their team forgot his affadavit on the stand and he still got a high score. Wtf, mock trial, wtf. And this is long, sorry. P:

Why do you call them hamburgers when they're made of beef?

Either that or it's Hamburg, New York. There's so many claimers of the ground beef patty. There's even a thing about Ghengis Khan giving the idea to the Russians. And a consession stand stadium guy who smooshed a meatball. So hm. And plus, there are burgers made of Ham. So there. Maybe the first hamburger really was ham. Silly Englishers changing the name to make it more specific.
