This seems tragic and completely unnecessary. Ian Terry was a police officer, and he was shot to death. Was it while he was on duty? Nope. He was shot by a colleague during a training exercise. Yup. He was pretending to run from a fake crime scene, and they had to stop him. Well, they …

The War On Laughter?
Since when has it become unacceptable to laugh? First we have Chris Cocker, who laughed so hard at a television comedy that he fell off his sofa and disturbed neighbours who called police. Then, because for some reason the police officer wouldn’t leave, Cocker got charged with resisting arrest, got sprayed, and got halled into …
This Vacation Is Gonna Be A Blast!
Who comes up with this shit? A new policy from the much loved and well respected US Transportation Security Administration states that people who refuse to present ID will no longer be allowed to board airplanes. However, if you say that you’d love to present it but you just can’t find it right now,that’s just …
Officer, You’re Killing My Buzz
If you’re looking to not get yourself busted on a DUI, might I humbly suggest that you refrain fromtooling around the streets of New York in a motorized beer cooler,especially one that has a top speed of 13 MPH? Leslie J. “Bomber” Marr, 57, was charged with driving while intoxicated and aggravated unlicensed operation of …
Smile! You’re On Airport Camera
Yikes! Next time you fly, you’ll be given a choice. Either get the pat-down, or get scanned by a machine. You’d think the scan would be less invasive. Think again. Apparently the officer can see details such as colostomy bags, implants, the size of your breasts or genetals, and all manner of other things. But …
Brakes Not Included
This story of a very stripped down car leaves me with so many questions. Why, oh why would you buy a car with a cinder block as a driver’s seat and nothing else inside? How do you not notice that it has no brakes, or brake pedal for that matter? Hell, how do you drive …
More UK bullshit
Here we go again. First it’s a human rights violation in Britain to post a fugitive’s photo. Now, they can’t even walk a guy across the street in handcuffs from one court to another because that would be assuming he was guilty and it would violate his human rights. So, since the prisoner van had …
Yes, Things Can Get Worse
Apparently France has gotten in on the child porn filtering act as well, but taken it a few frightening steps further by also announcing that they will filter out websites dealing in terrorism and racial hatred. That’s more than a little subjective, methinks.
Please, Stop Thinking Of The Children
ISPs agree to block access to child porn sites, newsgroups Internet service providers Verizon Communications, Sprint Nextel, and Time Warner Cable have agreed to block Internet newsgroups and Web sites nationwide that disseminate child pornography, The New York Times reported Monday. The move–part of an agreement with New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo expected to …
Those Evil Airlines Are Discriminating Against The Computer Illiterate
I’m no fan of the airline industry, but if the point of this tale of woe is that I’m supposed to feel sorry for this woman, well, all I can say is epic fale. That’s what happens when you don’t check your work before you hit the button. It’s not the company’s fault that you …
