    I'm more curious how so many on this site making these horrrrrrrrrrible journalist salaries seem to know all the great restaurants and vacation spots and --- as you pointed out ---- always seem to have an extra thousand or two to blow on Disney every year.

    These bumblers hid in plain sight in front of thousands of law enforcement officers, and National Guard troops. One bumbler hid for most of a day blocks from the largest lockdown of a US city since 9-11.

    These guys weren't on our governments radar anymore than they were on Al Queda's radar.

    Can you imagine the Senate hearing going on in the Pakistani caves?

    The Senator from Bumfuqistan is recognized.
    I rise today to ask which fucking Mullah knew about these 2 wannabe terrorists? Was this shit cleared through the central committee? Do any of you fuckers know about the chain-of-command? This shit was not authorized and tomorrow I have to move my wives and goats before a Allah-damned drone fires missiles into my fucking cave. I'm going to c_punt some Allah-damned Sheik who knew about these fucking amateurs and didn't fucking tell us. And Chechnya? We don't give a fuck about Chechnya, Chechens are the shvatzas of Islam. They're animals anyway, so let them lose their souls. Salaam Alchiem

    I read an article about this a few months ago, and it's supposedly not as foolproof as we think. Most angles kill you, but some inflict manageable damage, and some fuck you up permanently without killing you. Imagine being miserable enough you want to die, then your life gets worse.

    At least a little reminiscent of the last scene of Fight Club, no? Jack shoots himself in the mouth to rid himself of Tyler Durden and remains alive. Most of Palahniuk's crazy fiction is grounded in some fact.

    Can anyone explain the "public safety exception" to the Miranda warning in layman's terms? Why wouldn't the cops/FBI want to read a suspect his rights anyway?

    To keep a lawyer from coming in and telling the suspect to shut up.
