I'm not a country music fan, but I think Keith's album title is funny. OMG -- looking at that 10 Years Ago list: 14) Eazy-E, It s On (Dr. Dre 187um) Killa (EP) 20) Das EFX, Straight Up Sewaside (debut) 22) MC Ren, Shock Of The Hour (debut) 45) Shaquille O Neal, Shaq Diesel (was on charts for 30 weeks at that point)...

But yet you couldn't resist...

At least there's no Britney Spears or Limp Bizkit...

So last night I was channel-surfing when I came across the aborted CBS mini-series. It had just ended when I found out it was on -- did anyone happen to watch it?...

Madden '04. Other than that, I have no idea what Santa is putting under my tree this year because I really don't want anything -- I'm such a pain to shop for...

OK -- I have to ask the obvious questions: Will he say "Have a nice day" in every episode? Will Mr. Socko be his wise-cracking sidekick? Will Mick do his own stunts? And how long with this series last if it survives the Pilot episode?...

So there I was in my living room minding my own business with everyone's favorite cable news channel on in the background when suddenly I hear about this 400-lb black guy dying after a brawl with several Cincinnati po-pos. Now besides the obvious question, which is why couldn't the Cincinnati police simply shoot this 400-lb man in the foot with a stun gun (or elephant tranquilizer), I'm curious to know if the Rev. Lynch-pin has already gathered up his Lynch-mob in "protest" to this action -- can anyone from the area (Swift Terror, Side FX, Choken) give a bit more detail regarding this story? Are we looking at Tim Thomas the Sequel?... Story A 41-year-old man died after a violent struggle Sunday morning with Cincinnati police officers outside a North Avondale fast-food restaurant. The fight, which included the nearly 400-pound man hitting officers and police repeatedly striking him with nightsticks, was caught on tape from a camera in an officer's patrol car. Within minutes of the struggle ending, Nathaniel Jones was dead. The six officers involved were placed on administrative leave while several agencies, including police homicide and internal affairs units, the Citizen Complaint Authority and the Hamilton County Coroner's Office investigate. Assistant Police Chief Richard Janke said the police video shows that the officers followed their training and were justified in using force to subdue Jones. But Roger Webster, Fraternal Order of Police president, said that after the incident the officers were treated like suspects. He said they were questioned for hours, read their legal rights and only allowed one phone call. "My question to the police administration is, what criminal act are you investigating? You are accusing these cops of being criminals," Webster said angrily outside police headquarters. "That is why they don't want to work, because they are treated worse than the criminals they arrest." In June, the Citizen Complaint Authority cleared a police officer of any wrongdoing in the Feb. 9 shooting death of a burglary suspect in Northside. Of the officers involved Sunday, authorities identified the two who responded first: Baron Osterman, who has one year on the force, and James Pike, a seven-year veteran. Police officials, radio transmissions and the video give a picture of how the circumstances unfolded at the White Castle at 64 W. Mitchell Ave., just west of Vine Street. About 5:50 a.m. a White Castle employee called 911 to report that a man had passed out in the grass outside the restaurant. "He's breathing, but he keeps hollering 19," she told the call taker. When emergency medical personnel arrived, Jones was awake and "becoming a nuisance" at the restaurant, according to a tape of radio transmissions in which firefighters ask police to respond. In the video, Jones walks toward an officer, who yells, "Stay back." Jones then lunged, swinging at the officer's head before he stumbled into the officer, taking him down. The two officers, Osterman and Pike, jabbed Jones in the torso with nightsticks as they repeatedly yelled, "Put your hands behind your back." But Jones continued to fight, flailing his arms and grabbing one of the police batons. The officers called for backup, asking especially for someone with a stun gun. Eventually, six officers responded, many of them also using their batons to strike Jones. After a struggle with all six, they got Jones on his stomach and his arms behind his back. The officers turned Jones over after he was handcuffed over and realized he needed medical help, Janke said. "He looked to be in enough distress that the officers immediately called for a fire company," Janke said. Jones had a pulse when EMS arrived, but he died within minutes of arriving at University Hospital, Janke said. Why Jones behaved as he did is not yet known, Janke said. During the struggle, officers tried to call for an officer trained to deal with people with mental health problems, but the officer was on another call. Police did not use a stun gun, but did use chemical spray in addition to the batons. Janke did not know how many of the officers hit Jones. Police estimate that Jones, who was 5 foot 6 inches tall, weighed 400 pounds. They did not release a current address for Jones. According to court records, Jones pleaded guilty in 1998 to possessing cocaine and was given three years probation, which included inpatient treatment at Talbert House. A month after his sentencing, Jones violated his probation and was sentenced to a year in jail, records show.

But it's so much fun -- especially when you're on the right side. And can we PLEASE stop posting in here? I mean, come on you guys. Yeah, make sure Old Yeller doesn't click on this thread anymore -- he'll have nothing to yelp about then... EDIT: Laughs out loud with only one month to go in the year 2003 because he spotted, with his kkk-vision, a certain poster reading this thread that earlier whined about how this thread should stop because it was a waste of time...

Can't stand family. But I love turkey so it's all good. Plus I loved watching the Lions/Packers game this year...

Fuck you bitch. Don't make me shoot you in the foot with a Kalashnikov. And I'm not pissed off because some soldier didn't kill a Seven-year-old Iraqi. I got pissed because pinheads like you seem to think that real-life warfare is like what you play in a RPG video game or first-person shooter. "Ooooh Jimmy, if we shoot this gun-toting enemy in the leg we'll get 50 POINTS and a WARP GATE TO LEVEL 9! So what if we get blasted in the process? We have two more lives and a cheat code for unlimited ammo!" And I support John Kerry, so I myself know a thing or two about warfare, especially Vietnam. I agree with this -- you said PLENTY of other things that showed us how big of a dumb ass you are. Once again, I, and I know a good many of the other know-it-all jackasses on this message board didn't second-guess the soldier to no end for not wiping the brat out. What I'm ultimately glad about is that little brat didn't take out any of our troops. Hint, gal: Then why are you still posting in this thread? Isn't Desert Warfare Volume III on sale at your nearby Electronics Boutique or something?...

So you were the other person to buy 5150? I hate Christmas, so my two favorite songs are Cartman's "O' Holy Night" and "Here Comes Fatty Claus," which is sung by this redneck band...

I wouldn't mind meeting Britney after she consumed a few dozen Red Bull drinks...

But is the recoil factor on those RPGs the same as on a Kalashnikov?...

Mike SC, how can you do your point-by-point debating at this place? I nearly went crazy dealing with this dipshit. Oh, and Duo shooting a kid in the foot IS good marksmanship -- Jesus, the one time I was making a serious point and he misinterprets it. Damn, it's threads like this that make me second-guess my normally pro-life poistion and wonder if some folks are better off as an aborted lump of tissue. And I'm pretty sure THOSE beings don't have the ability to fire off a gun at soldiers...

Wow, an employer said one thing during the interview and acted differently once you got hired. I'm shocked. *dust, if you're only getting 10 hours per week why don't you find another retail job?...

Fuck you Jobber (my sucicide bomber comment was in jest). And if you tried to smack me I'd simply shoot you in the foot with my Kalashnikov. And this is supposed to be a bad thing?...

No, but I am gleeful when we kill any Iraqi who points a Kalashnikov at our troops -- regardless of age. Again. Who cares if it's a LITTLE KID? Just out of curiousity -- at what age does someone, who is pointing a gun at a soldier, have to be before it is OK for the soldier to shoot back with the intent to kill? Well, at least you're being honest and admitting that you're a blithering idiot. (I would use stronger words, but I'm not getting a mod warning over this.) *sigh* Nah, I think I got your point the first time I read it. *scratches nuts* We agree on this one -- it's a shame you're the one that brought up the stupid "what-if." And what if the soldier, or someone in the squad, had been shot. Would you be praising this soldier for not killing the "helpless" seven-year old? If you were in this soldier's situation you probably would have crapped your pants at having to make such a split-second, life-or-death decision that could affect the rest of your life. I know I would have. Not surprised it went beyond you. 1) Myself, and I'm sure others on this board, are saying that our troops shouldn't be focusing on trying to shoot the arms/legs/feet of people pointing guns at them. 2) Never said, "The soldier was WRONG to shoot the kid in a non-lethal body part." 3) The whole "conversation" bit was sarcasm. Jesus Christ. Now remember troops, when you go out there putting your lives, and the lives of others, on the line, don't shoot until you see the whites of the enemy's high-tops. Oh, and so that last line doesn't go "beyond you," (it probably wouldn't have far to go to achieve that) I was being facetious...

Who cares? If a kid is pointing a gun at me, and if I'm packing heat, little Bobby/Jenny is going down and going down fast. If a soldier or officer does that and the tyke lives, then I'll get all warm and fuzzy inside, like I am now. Awwwwww. How sweet they didn't kill the kid -- now he can grow up to become a suicide bomber. But a child's trigger finger does. Yay. I'm praising the soldier for not getting himself/herself killed. Shoot someone in the foot, even "helpless" seven-year old kids, and there's still a chance of them firing off a shot or two. And this scenario occurs if you're lucky enough not to miss the target entirely. Can you prove that he didn't know how to use the rifle? I'm thinking he probably wasn't going to "turn in" the rifle to the troops either. It's a shame you don't like soldiers because I'd LOVE to see you handle this situation. "Hey there kid -- you with the Kalashnikov, I know that someone your age can't shoot a weapon like that accurately due to the recoil factor, so can I ask why you have a firearm like that in your possession? I wouldn't want to shoot you in the foot -- that is, of course, after I let off several warning shots and go tell your mother that you are playing with such violent toys. Why you might shoot your eye out!" I'm no gun expert by any means, so I did a quick Google image search with "Kalashnikov" and came up with this. Yeah, I'm going to ask questions first to somebody holding THIS. Unless of course they looked something like the person below, then I might ask for a phone number or something...

I've seen your picture -- wouldn't want to run into you in a dark alley, let alone a Wal-Mart electronics aisle. (Note that I’m commenting on your size, not looks…)

A buddy of mine that just got a job at Best Buy said he wasn't allowed to tell anyone how much business that store does. He told me that he could get canned for doing so. Hope one of your bosses isn't reading this *dust...

I'm 6'+ so I don't have any "stupid customer tried to take something away from me" stories. I want it to happen so bad, though...

If a Seven-year-old came at a police officer with a gun I would hope the cop would make sure the little bastard never has the opportunity to pull a trigger of any sort ever again...

Years ago when I went to Toronto for a week, there was this tax that I got the money back for when I returned back to the States -- is that the Goods & Services Tax?...

AHHHH! Another thing that pisses me off. When I worked for National Amusement (Think Showcase Cinemas) we had to ask people if they wanted to donate money (buy a hippie golden heart pin) to some goofy charity. Funny thing is we were REQUIRED to sell out of all our pins that we had to pimp on customers that just bought a movie ticket and was about to mortgage their house for a tub of popcorn. To make matters worse, before every movie they played a PSA with Mel Gibson pimping the patron to put out even more money, and ushers had to walk with a money bucket to try and squeeze every last dime out of these poor people. Of course, NOWHERE during this fleecing did National Amusements even mention how much money THEY were donating. Oh, did I hate those times. (Although whenever I was an usher I taped over the bucket and wrote "Super Savers Usher Tip Jar" or something equally dumb when I had to play collection plate waiter. Might as well make the best of a bad situation I say -- my one manager thought it was funny as hell. The other one didn't think so.) And the other week some 90-year old hag cashier at Wal-Mart asked my better half and I if we wanted to donate $1 to some goofy fund. I then replied. “No. Would Wal-Mart like to donate $5 to the Frank Winters pay-the-rent fund?” Cashier said no – heartless b*tch...
