This is sick, my sister lives there!

It's a very frightening experience to have someone take control of the wheelchair and not be able to do anything about it, especially so late. I hope the man will be able to get over this fright and shock, and that the perpetrator is caught.

This made me smile.

And it made me think for a moment.

I wonder if there is a punishment that would act as a perfect deterrent. Prison doesn't deter criminals... is gelding the secret?

I'm not making a joke. I'm quite serious.

An old friend of my had a good money making idea.
"Take all the murders and rapists and whatever and put em in one of those big planes that the ass end opens up and fly them over the middle of the ocean and open up the plane and have a big hydraulic plunger push em out. If the sharks don't get em and they manage to swim to some island they can live there, otherwise, f*@k em!"

Goddam Ratman I like the sound of it. When are you running for president of the world coz I'll vote for ya.

[Ratticis]

Hmm, maybe it is time for me to reign supreme . . .
Free booze for everyone! And no more of this "parents with children parking" shit! That's really redundant anyway. Plus everyone gets one free kill. Then there'll be less assholes cus they won't know if you had a turn yet. And for hod sakes give your kids a swat on the ass when they need it. I'm not saying beat the shit out of them, but when a kids acting like a spoiled little asshole in a grocery store, swat em on the ass like our parents did. This 'don't hit your kids ever' 'every child is special' 'everybodys a winner' mentality hasn't existed very long, but it's creating a generation of greedy whiney little assholes!

Vote for Ratticis for extreme leader of the universe!

You got my vote Ratty.

I know a double leg amputee, a really nice and gentle guy, who was attacked on the seafront promenade of our town (Port Talbot, UK). The attackers were a male and female in their twenties. The girl hit him over the head and pushed him out of his chair. After robbing him they just left him stranded on the floor where he stayed until a passer by helped. The girl was later charged with attacking and robbing an eighty year old woman.

Sounds like a classy broad
