Here’s something you don’t see every day: A man clinging to the hood of a semi truck, bashing the windshield with his fists and head as it drives 9 miles along the Florida Turnpike, captured in a viral video from a passing motorist.

I guess he got fed up with traffic and decided to do something about it.   :chuckle: (:)

James H. Cole Funeral Home in Detroit confirmed it picked up the body hours later. But at the funeral home, employees saw her chest was rising and falling and the woman was still breathing. They called EMS, and the woman was taken to the hospital for treatment.

We actually have a company in the USA whose business it is to feed Rioters. Gee you would not want these guys to get hungry. They might go home and stop looting after a few hours.

Jennifer Scheurle, who serves on the board of directors for Riot Kitchen, based in Seattle, said Kenosha police were mistaken when they arrested the volunteers Wednesday for investigation of disorderly conduct.

3) There has been no "threat" to invade Ukraine. The US invented that and fed it to a complicit media.

Man arrested for selling ........... Corona Virus!

The man said : Its for those whom do not want a vaccination, but still want the 9-month valid QR-code to visit things in Europe.

He said it came with a warning that sickness and in extreme cases even death could occur.

Husband Busted For Choking Wife Over Chicken

Argument over leftovers ended with felony counts

SEPTEMBER 15--Meet Desmond Leon Brownlee.

The Floridian, 45, was arrested early this morning for allegedly choking his wife during a dispute over fried chicken, police report.

Brownlee began arguing with his wife “over not having enough fried chicken leftovers,” according to a police report. Shay Alamo, Brownlee’s wife of four years, told investigators that the 3 AM dispute escalated into a physical confrontation.

Alamo, 40, said that Brownlee pushed her into their bedroom, where he then shoved her onto the bed. Brownlee, Alamo said, struck her multiple times in the face and strangled her to the point of “not being able to breathe.”

Alamo, who broke free and dialed 911, told a sheriff’s deputy who responded to the couple’s Deltona home that she did not want to press charges against Brownlee, a stay-at-home parent to the duo’s young daughter (who was sleeping while her parents quarreled).

A deputy reported noticing red marks on Alamo’s neck and a laceration on her lower lip.

When questioned, Brownlee said that the couple was “arguing over the leftover food” when Alamo “went wild and just started to slap at him.” He claimed to have just “raised his hands above his head and let her slap him.”

Since Brownlee was judged to be the “primary aggressor” during the confrontation, he was arrested for domestic battery by strangulation, a felony.  He was also charged with witness tampering.
He was charged with "witness tampering"? What the hell is that? Was he letting her know that he was sorry and that he loved her?  :scared0005:

I couldn't see a crime - unless a real chook was involved.

Chook is slang for a woman in Chinese if I am not mistaken.

Some present might not comprehend this.

14 year old boy shoots a would be robber of a Pizza Parlor in the face after the robber choked his Mother. Whoops!  :laugh:
Gotta love stories like this.

(Bonus: Watch a Marine Veteran fu^% up a would be robber on the video)

Quote

"According to police, three men entered the pizzeria and demanded money from the restaurant's cash register. During the robbery, one man allegedly choked a female employee who said she could not open the register without a code.

The female employee's teenage son was at the pizzeria during the robbery and quickly jumped into action. Police said when the suspect began choking his mother, the teen grabbed a handgun hidden beneath the counter.

The teen then shot the suspect in the face, police said. The three men then fled the scene leaving a trail of blood behind them."
