"Salvadorean citizen Ernesto Gamboa, who worked for 13 years in the Seattle area as a snitch for federal drug agents and contributed to at least 92 convictions for drug- and weapons-smuggling, was "fired" by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in May after asking the agency for regular employment. Gamboa originally entered the U.S. as a visitor but overstayed and now aspires merely to an "S visa" granted aliens who assist law enforcement. Not only did ICE deny that request but, according to a November Seattle Times report, the agency informed Gamboa that he should prepare to be deported. [Seattle Times, 11-15-09]"

"Sean McDowell, 24, was arrested in Ashland, Ore., after attempting to steal a 4-foot-tall stuffed giraffe from the front of a children's store. A police officer had witnessed an inebriated McDowell grab the giraffe and make simulated sexual movements, then walk away, and then return 90 minutes later to snatch the animal for good. [Ashland Daily Tidings, 11-14-09]"

TAMPA, Fla. – A Tampa man faces charges after a deputy spotted him walking in a clown mask. According to jail records, the man was arrested Tuesday and charged with wearing a mask or hood on a public road over the age of 16 and resisting arrest without violence. The man, who turned 19 on Wednesday, has been released from Hillsborough County Jail on $750 bond.
The St. Petersburg Times reported that a deputy saw the man wearing a clown mask and bright wig as he walked down a street with two other people. The group fled when deputies tried to question them, but were later located.

I'll sell you mine.  It's barely used and only has a few stains.

Arizona Town Bans Home Bible Study

  I don't care who your group is; be it Bible study, a Tupperware party, AVON, "watchin' the race", a LAN party, or a damn orgy  -  if it's in the house (windows covered if necessary) and no one is complaining, then W7F??

Arrest Made in N.J. Walmart 'All Black People' Case

  Hmm. Arrested for words and point of view. In America.

  A 16-year-old boy who police said made an announcement at Walmart ordering all black people in a southern New Jersey store to leave was charged with harassment and bias intimidation, authorities said Saturday.

  Harassment and bias intimidation?? They were intimidated by a 16 year old's voice on an intercom?  :slap

  The "legal" action in this one bothers me much more than the racial aspect. We're being arrested for hurting someone's feelings with [not even obscene] simple words.

Just -

         "Holy Shit."   :-o

he may not have deserved to get arrested, but he certainly deserved to get fired. and have his parents notified.

still, it didn't seem particularly malicious, more of a joke. if it were malicious he probably would have actually used a slur. he didn't even call them "blacks" just "black people" which is a step below "African-American" in terms of politeness

  I don't think he was an employee. It was just some stupid 16 year old kid. Probably not even racist; just knows that would put everyone in a tizzy.


  Anyway; so we arrest kids for words, deport our own citizens' spouses if the citizen happens to die, but we have to let people like this go free.

   This had GOT to be THE DUMBEST country on the face of the Earth.      U.tter  S.tupidity
