The Surma are still raiders, they use the guns as the spears many years ago.
They live near the border of Sudan so people without any qualms sell them the Kalashnikov and is really easy for them to find this kind of people. The guns replaced the spears in the tribal fights also. During these kind of "event" they shot a lot near your head, to let you know how strong they are and that they are not afraid from anyone and more people they killed more they are considered in the tribe. For the western people is not so dangerous to be there, still they are not drunk..... but many Ethiopians are killed each year for this reason.
