    Some young men "stole" two sea lion pups out here. One was recovered, and his face, stance, just break my heart. He looks at the camera with a "the hell?" face. Poor little sweetie, must be so scared, wanting to be in his natural environment.

    Search is on for the second one missing.

    These assholes harrassed these little creatures, tossed one in the trunk of their car.

    What could possibly possess someone to do this? Would love to administer several swift kicks to the asses of the assholes who did this.

    Maybe this should be the idiot / asshole thread.

    The two can sometimes be synonymous.

    These young men fall under both categories.

    Oh fuck me...they bludgeoned the pups' mother with a cinderblock. The little one they showed (safe) put up a fight and got away; his brother/sister is missing and likely not to survive if these pieces of shit hold onto him.

    Stories like this just hit me in the gut and heart.

    You know what kills me? I don't know if they were teens or adults - yet apparently old enough to drive - but there were two females and two males. Not one of them tried to stop the others, said "screw this, I'm outta here" or had second thoughts afterward?

    No conscience on their part, not the least bit of empathy from me.

    maybe one or more of them did. but the bystander effect is real, and very difficult to overcome.

    Woman Texted "Driving drunk woo" Minutes Before Fatal DUI Crash

    Just three minutes before allegedly causing an accident that killed her passenger, a 22-year-old old Florida woman reportedly texted her boyfriend, “Driving drunk woo …” and “Ill be dead thanks to you ….” The woman, Mila Dago, had a blood alcohol level of .178 two hours after the crash, according to police.

    Dago was, according to prosecutors, in the middle of a break-up on Aug. 14, 2013 and had been texting her boyfriend throughout the night. The last text was sent just before Dago and her friend, 22-year old Irina Reinoso, got behind the wheel of a rented Smart Car.

    At about 4:45 am, Dago allegedly barreled through a red light and t-boned a truck driven by Benjamin Byrum, who escaped with only minor injuries.

    “The Smart Car is what saved me,” Byrum told the Miami Herald. “If it had been anything bigger, I would have been in trouble.”

    Dago also survived, but Reinoso “showed no signs of life,” according to court transcripts obtained by the Herald, and was pronounced dead at the scene.

    A responding officer said Dago smelled of alcohol; blood tests later showed her blood alcohol level to be .178, more than twice the limit in Florida.

    Dago has pleaded not guilty to DUI manslaughter, and two counts of DUI with damage to a person, and vehicular homicide.

    How the hell do you plead not guilty to that?!

    And she was driving a Smart Car - the irony.

    I almost started a thread for this, then decided it belonged in the idiot thread.
    Idiot rednecks throw an anti-Muslim party to provoke violence, shell out 10,000$ for armed guards, and then idiot Muslims (assumption at this point) are dumb enough to be goaded into the violence and lose their lives for it.
    Idiots all around.

    Wow.

    Extremists on both sides of the equation.

    This does belong in the idiot thread. Mass idiocy is nothing to sneer at. The art show seems criminal in nature, but the response is outrageous.

    which makes me wonder.....is there some kind of law against goading people into this? I mean, if it can be proven (eye/earwitness testimony) that people were planning on some muslims to show up and waste them, could that be considered premeditated murder?

    Perfect placement for this. I thought about starting a thread too before deciding, "Nah." Didn't remember this thread. Perfect for these idiots on both sides.

    How does the art show itself seem criminal in nature? I know it was organized by a hate group, but the theme of the art show itself doesn't sound criminal to me at all. I guess there is a question of intent here, but still, legally and artistically speaking, I see no problem. I mean, if it had been organized by a group for freedom of speech or the press, it would probably be viewed as socially progressive.

    It was staged with the intent of provocation alone. It wasn't about art, or the principle of free speech, it was about deliberately offending and provoking a group of people using art and free speech as an excuse and justification. The organizers spent $10,000 dollars on a private security force because they were intentionally prodding a beehive.

    Not criminal in my mind, just extremely idiotic and low. Pathetic really.
    You know from our past convos that I am no fan of religion, and have no qualms about heavily criticizing religion and it's adherents, but I am not going out of my way to provoke and offend.
