CRIME

Friday, October 5th, 2007

“Last night, October 5th, after what was thought to be a secret meeting for new members of the front at Chief Ike’s, Inquisitor K (forgot to ask if I can just put his real name now) was arrested by US Marshalls. He says they were watching the meeting the entire time and when leaving they rushed him but he got away and was chased into Rock Creek where he was tackled, cuffed and nearly drowned. We went down to court this morning where he was arraigned on many charges including advocating terrorism (or something like that), providing material support to a terrorist organization, aggravated assault (for a botched ball-napping in July where a kickball player who gave chase was supposedly knocked out with brass knuckles), resisting arrest, 3 counts of theft, another assault charge, and he apparently faces extradition to Maryland and New Jersey for warrants related to narcotics trafficking.” [DieYuppieKickball.com]


RUDY GIULIANI

NYT on Rudy: 9/11 9/11 9/11

Friday, September 21st, 2007

The New York Times would like to remind everyone that Rudy Giuliani was there, on 9/11, when 9/11 happened. So they are running a story that contains precisely no (0) new information about Rudy or 9/11 or anything, really, and it’s half “what a hero” and half “what a dick” because it’s the New York Times and that’s their steez. Still, we love reading anything and everything about Rudy Giuliani and 9/11 so we read almost every word of this particular piece, and we have summarized it for you after the jump. MORE »

PATRIOTISM

How Are You Helping to Find Osama bin Laden?

Tuesday, September 11th, 2007

sharp dressed patriot - WonketteAll across America, regular citizens are pitching in to help their country capture the man who attacked it six short years ago on September “9/11″ Eleventh. They’re a crafty bunch, these citizen warriors, and their resolve is strong. Take, for example, 46-year-old Gary Weddle. Weddle has patriotically vowed not to shave until Osama is captured. Unfortunately all the stories we can find on his quest are a year old, so we’re not sure if he’s still rocking the Sunni Madhab look. Or he might be more like Lufkin, Texas city attorney Bob Flournoy… MORE »

TSA

Wednesday, August 15th, 2007

“Specially trained security personnel” at the airport will now be studying your “body language and facial cues… for signs of bad intentions.” They’re called “Behavior Detection Officers,” and their 16 hours of training will lead to a glorious new era of total security. Because one place where nervous, angry, hateful, or frustrated people will definitely stand out from the crowd is the airport. [McClatchy]

TSA Detains Man for Anti-American T-Shirt

Thursday, August 9th, 2007

It says Did you know that wearing a t-shirt with arabic writing to an airport is the equivalent of a “”person wearing a t-shirt at a bank stating, ‘I am a robber’”? No? Then you clearly don’t work with the TSA, who barred Reed Jarrar over there from boarding his flight at JFK because his shirt had terrifying non-Roman characters on it. MORE »
