Can you tell the difference between these two items and what they are used for?
That's right, one is a chainsaw and one is an axe, specifically a chopping axe. Do you know how they are different? Of course you do! One is for sawing (with the chain), hence the term "chainsaw" and the other is for (drum roll) chopping. Apparently, these two very different activities are lost to Marcus Garner of the AJC who wrote the following:
A man who chopped his friend to pieces with a chain saw was found guilty of the crime Wednesday by a Fulton County jury.
...
The defendant kidnapped Robbins, tortured him and hacked him into 10 pieces with a chain saw, Edwards said.
Either this was the most bizarre murder in Georgia history or Garner is an idiot.
