^ that is awesome!

i once witnessed instant justice of the sort. i was driving back from the grand canyon to my hotel in flagstaff, this car jumps onto the road from some driveway, cutting off the car 3-4 cars in front of me - nearly causing a 5+ car accident. a couple cars had to pull onto the shoulder to avoid hitting another, anyways, within 5 seconds, a cop appeared from thin air and lit the asshole up. i put my arm up out the window in triumph

boy, reading the title, I was expecting some sort of near heroic video of a car swerving to stop from hitting a school bus full of kids. Clearly I read the title wrong.

What a moronic driver, that would be one ticket I would hope would be in the hundreds of dollars and fees. Heck I hope the driver appeals and the judge tacks on another hundred.

Some people simply should never be allowed to have children. As much as I think people like this deserve a life sentence, I find it disturbing that people who actually murder or kill others get less time than this.

That's how I took it too. Feel sorry for the kid, but I bet he never does that again. As for the kid that picked it up and ran, Good job on his part.

pffft. You're cutting the kid too much slack. At 8, I invented nuclear fusion, solved the Middle East problem, and discovered the Higgs-Bosun particle.

Unfortunately, I put all my research on an 8-track tape and now it is lost to mankind.

Not sure if this is the best or the worst of our future, but Peter Moore (aka the guy who was held hostage for 2 1/2 years in Iraq and managed to get out) did an [URL="http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/125ukc/i_am_peter_moore_the_longest_held_hostage_in_iraq/"]AMA on Reddit[/URL] that I found really interesting.

[URL="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2224725/Our-babys-devil-say-Colombian-parents-child-walk-weeks-breathes-fire.html"]Problem child[/URL]? No, not compared to this little treasure:

[I]Black magic and evil spirits have captured the soul of a new-born baby in Colombia who can apparently already walk by himself and produce fire, his own mother has claimed.

Ana Feria Santos gave birth to her son last month but says her joy quickly turned to fear when she noticed that he had 'several abnormalities' - leading to fears in her community that he is the 'devil in disguise'.

She says the boy can already stand up and walk - quite a feat for a child of just four weeks.

Much like the 1976 horror film The Omen, the mother-of-five says he frequently hides around the house, cackles in an 'adult' way for hours on end and has an 'intimidating' pair of eyes.

[I]Hundreds of military, law enforcement and medical personnel will observe the Hollywood-style production of a zombie attack as part of their emergency response training.

In the scenario, a VIP and his personal detail are trapped in a village, surrounded by zombies when a bomb explodes. The VIP is wounded and his team must move through the town while dodging bullets and shooting back at the invading zombies. At one point, some members of the team are bit by zombies and must be taken to a field medical facility for decontamination and treatment.

"No one knows what the zombies will do in our scenario, but quite frankly no one knows what a terrorist will do," Barker said. "If a law enforcement officer sees a zombie and says, `Freeze, get your hands in the air!' What's the zombie going to do? He's going to moan at you. If someone on PCP or some other psychotic drug is told that, the truth is he's not going to react to you."

[/I]Zombies? Can't call them 'Red Team' anymore?
