Mark: The topic - a Japanese exchange student, looking for a Halloween party with a friend, is shot to death by a Lousisiana homeowner. Japan is stunned, and struggles to understand a country where such things are possible. Our lines are open and our first call is from Baton Rouge. Go ahead, caller.
