13-foot Burmese python seized from New York home, owner unprepared for how fast snake grew


Down here in South Florida we would call that a garden snake.

Who were the two children killed by python?
On August 5, 2013, an African rock python killed two boys in Campbellton, New Brunswick, Canada. The boys, brothers Noah and Connor Barthe, aged 4 and 6 respectively, were sleeping in an apartment above their friend's father's pet store.

a man drugged his wife into an unconscious state and then brought in more than 70 men to rape her over a 10 year time frame - see link

the various men were all aware that his wife was drugged and unconscious

from the article:

"According to Le Monde, investigators say the alleged victim was raped while unconscious at least 92 times by at least 72 people; they have identified and charged 51 of the suspects. The accused include truck drivers, a fireman and a journalist. They range in age from 26 to 74. Some are married with children. Some are accused of raping the victim once, while others of raping her up to six times."

really, really sick



and in other news a h.s. student was gunned down and killed by a classmate in Maryland while in school on Friday - it barely made the news because of the kid in Georgia who killed 4 in his school - killing just one barely moves the outrage needle - I think at least 3 need to be gunned down while in school for it to be featured in the national news

Officer put on leave in incident with Tyreek Hill, who says he's unsure why he was detained

Let's see the body cam. Why didn't the cop just write a ticket. Was he arrested for being black and driving an expensive car????????????
Release the body cam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I still don't why he didn't just get a tix
Seems the cops only interest is to escalate the situation. I think they enjoy the himulation of cuffing and making someone lay on the dirty ground. It's a total power trip.

Zerohedge. Bunch of nuts run that site
I didn't read
Got a source that's more level headed and that doesn't include the NY Post lol

Bottom line. The local economy needs these Haitians. There is a massive boom in manufacturing and warehouse jobs in the area. They are coming to Springfield TO WORK.
