Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Dog Mauls Family After They Try to Dress It in a Christmas Sweater
By Char Adams•@CiCiAdams_

A pit bull mix named Scarface attacked its owner on Friday after she tried to put a Christmas sweater on it, police confirm to PEOPLE.

Police said the dog attacked 52-year-old Brenda Guerrero, biting her arm, in the back yard of her Tampa, Florida, home when she tried to put a Christmas sweater on it, WABC reports.

Guerrero’s husband, Ismael, and their 22-year-old son tried to help the woman but were both attacked by the dog.

“Officers responding said the dog was pretty aggressive,” Eddy Durkin with the Tampa Police Department told WABC. “When they tazed the dog, the dog was still pulling away and was able to release the prongs from the tazer.

He does like it when it comes off. And gets the rubdown.

He's got belly fungus which makes him itch which means he licks at it and never lets it dry out. I'm using a boric acid solution to kill the fungus. The vet said to give it about 10 days and its been 4 with considerable improvement.

I've been letting him sleep without the cone at night as long as he's not scratching or licking. I let him out to run around for a bit in the morning before I put the cone on him.

The way I see it, I'm not even sure if this guy suffers a serious injury but the video does show it was a serious situation. I don't think the crocodile tears his arm off, surprisingly once you see the video. Maybe they take the dangerous teeth out of the creature.

That there just slayed me, Wingding.  :bigsilly:  I can always count on you for a good laugh!

True story:

A few years ago, someone was trying to "organize" my neighborhood with a website designed to get us talking.  There was this little posting forum set up, and somebody decided it would be a good idea to have a protest of an animal testing laboratory a company wanted to build in the city to create jobs.  They were posting times and locations to assemble.  I piped up!  I said, "Hey, this sounds like a great family event!  Let's meet up before we assemble.  I know a great BBQ rib joint and we can make a party out of it!"

For the life of me I don't know why the whole forum just died. :shrug:

Naked woman steals police truck


NBC News
January 07, 2017 02:17 PM

(KPNX)  A naked woman was taken into custody by Arizona police Thursday after stealing a Maricopa County Sheriff Deputy's truck and leading officers on a high-speed chase.

It began when the deputy responded to a call of a naked woman at a Shell gas station in Gila Bend.

Once the deputy arrived at the scene, he approached the woman, who told him she was sexually assaulted.

As the deputy attempted to find something for the woman to wear, she jumped in the deputy's truck and started to drive off, according to investigators.

"The next thing I know, I hear the sheriff's truck -- he had a pickup truck -- squeal out of here," said a witness at the gas station.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

No, they wouldn't.   My Mom died before Bill Clinton, and I remember being glad she wasn't here to see the degradation in the White House.

She would be absolutely horrified with what's going on now.

My father was a classic old-style working class Democrat voter.  He supported Dems all of his life---that is, until Clinton came along.  My dad said he was as crooked as a fish hook, and thus became a Republican.
