I'm almost at a loss for words.

 

This is what happens when you try to introduce a little culture and a little diplomacy to the mongrels.

The Chinese justice system will kick in now. The guy will get the death penalty. Not because he killed someone, but because he embarassed the Chinese government.

 

 

He already jumped to his death after the attack..

Do you remember some years ago when China was menacing Taiwan ? The US navy was prowling between China and the island if Taiwan. It was getting quite heated for a while.

 

The Chinese authorities began poloarising public opinion. Soon the spat went from being one of opposing governments, and became one of opposing peoples.

 

Chinese hackers were trying to harm US companies and vica versa. It spilled over into forums and elsewhere.

 

Its just amazing what governments and propaganda can do, and what people can end up doing with the right prompting

Now he's sport for the crows.

 

I say we go ahead and hack his body into little bits, bread the little pieces, deep fry them, pour some sesame sauce (or whatever the fukk that sh!t is called), serve over a fluffy bed of white rice, pour gasoline over the plate, and finally set it ablaze.

Oh yeah.. come to find out the man killed was Todd Bachman, CEO of Bachman's Garden center here in MN..

 

I've been doing odds and ends for a landscape supply company this summer and do some private label stuff for Bachman's.. Small, sick world.

Unfortunately, every society has it's sicko's. Wasn't it during the 1996 Olympic Summer Games in Atlanta games where a bomb went off in the Olympic village?

 

 

Don't have to be a "mongrel" to be a douchebag.

I'm trusted by more women.

Eric Rudolf. There was a huge manhunt for him. He was hiding in the woods and people were helping him out. The other guy that the FBI ruined his life was a security guard named Richard Jewell.

 

I was at a class one time with a guy that was on the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and was actually the first person to interview Jewell, he said that he tried to tell the FBI that Jewell wasn't the guy, but they dismissed his opinion as if it wasn't relevant because they are the FBI and they know everything. He was just a state investigator.

My second ex-wife was from Georgia, IWS. You're absolutely right.:D

 

My first ex-wife was from Minneapolis area (Osseo to be exact). Still... to this day... one of the few women alive who could funnel a beer and never remove the Marlboro from her mouth.
