A Three for One Arrest
« on: November 04, 2013, 03:04:39 PM »
This should be featured on some reality show somewhere.

Moron shoots friend because he thought he was Bigfoot while both were hunting Bigfoot. Moron's Father-in-Law tosses the rifle that was used in pond, but is still arrested for being a felon in possession of a weapon. Moron's wife is arrested for stating that unknown assailants shot at husband and friend. And it all happened in Oklahoma, widely known for its Bigfoot sightings.

Happily, that's not anybody that I know.  Sadly, I had to mash the link to make sure.

My county, on the far end from me. Sadly, I know several of the people named in the story. The surprising thing for me is that the people involved have managed to live this long.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

"To our knowledge, no Bigfoot sightings in Rogers County," Walton said. "I think our focus is career criminals and thugs, and we're going to stay focused on that and let somebody else go after Bigfoot."

I can sorta see how someone could mistake an Okie for Bigfoot  =D
Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

That area of the county (and it's inhabitants) is kind of odd even by our standards.

Personally, I do not understand how a bunch of people demanding a bigger govt can call themselves anarchist.
I meet lots of folks like this, claim to be anarchist but really they're just liberals with pierced genitals. - gunsmith

I'm a Texican but my mom and dad are both Okies.

But I have a pretty good sense of humor about such things.
