The man had intended to go out and feed the squirrels. But he forgot about the shotgun. Bob Brawdy Tri-City Herald file

A man who set up booby traps around his North Carolina home had to be taken to the hospital when he triggered one of them Monday, according to the sheriff’s office.

The 68-year-old man was seriously injured after he was shot by the booby trap around 11:30 a.m., the Cleveland County Sheriff’s Office said in a WCNC report.

The man, who has not been identified, set up a shotgun at his back door, per goupstate.com.

According to the sheriff’s office, the man “opened his back door to feed the squirrels outside, and that’s when the booby trap went off,” WBTV reported. The shotgun blast hit the man in the arm, which was saved by a deputy who applied a tourniquet to stop the bleeding.

After being taken to an area hospital in Shelby, deputies said, it was likely the 68-year-old would “be flown (to) Charlotte,” for treatment, WCNC reported.

According to sheriff’s deputies, the shotgun at the back door was one of many “booby traps the man had set up around his home,” according to WBTV.

Three naked teenage women led Florida police on a wild car chase that ended with them tased and in cuffs after they allegedly tried to attack the officers with their vehicle and a metal bat, according to report.

The revealing incident occurred after Florida Highway Patrol troopers received a call about three women in the buff at a rest stop on northbound Interstate 75 around 11:15 a.m. Wednesday, CBS affiliate WTSP reported.

“There’s three women standing in the nude putting on suntan lotion,” a trooper can be heard radioing to a dispatcher, according to the news outlet.

When the trooper confronted the women — identified as Oasis Mcleod, 18, Jeniyah Mcleod, 19, and Cecilia Young, 19 — they said they were simply “air drying” after showering before they hopped back into their white 2009 Nissan Sentra and drove off.

The trooper initially pursued the vehicle on the highway, but backed off because the chase did not fit Florida Highway Patrol protocol, the news site reported.

Shortly after, police went after the Nissan when another motorist called cops to report a “reckless vehicle” on the road.

Authorities then tracked down the Sentra, which they found parked and empty at a convenience store parking lot at State Road 52 and Curley Road in Pasco County.

  ConcernedCitizen is drafting the official changes, but for now to limit reports I would like to outline a slight rule change:

/n/ is no longer limited to national/international news.

Anything traditionally newsworthy that impacts or potentially impacts people on the international, national, or regional level or is exceptional on the local level can have its own thread.

For local stories with no real impact - we will be crafting a Flawda thread to contain them.

Here is some food for thought:

http://www.mediacollege.com/journalism/news/newsworthy.html

All other rules remain in effect until further notice.

Bump to be on top of the Flawda thread.

Threads that dissolve into accusations of schilling and tripfighting will be locked. Don't do it in the flawda thread either or you'll be banned.

Oh let's hear another story before getting back into the subject.

Well back in Iran-Iraq war or 8 year war or holy defense as they called it here, at some point Iraq got sanctioned so they relagged their tankers under kuwait and started selling oil under the table. One day Iraq is making X mil barrels of oil and Kuwait is selling Y mil, next day Iraq is selling no oil and Kuwait is selling X+Y mil... fucking magic. Now for that and for others Kuwait aids to Iraq, IR tried to... send Kuwaitis a message.

The message was, shelling Iraq using North Korean 170mm Koksan artillery... well they did the shelling over Kuwait. So I dunno how many times in history an artillery shell spent considerable part of it's path over a a third country, before going from the country of origin to the country target.

Now if only a time traveler from early nineties could go back to 80s kuwait and tell them about the future they might've reconsidered helping Saddam and saved everyone the trouble. Oh and before anybody decides to steal my ideas, I'm copyrighting this shit. This is NOT gonna be like Avatar all over again, fucking Cameron.

What does it all have to do with Saudi ships getting bombed in a port in UAE anyway? well...

IR motives.

Well let's imagine US doesn't want tension but war, so they'll need allies, normally neighboring countries don't want to get into this kind of shit because well, US comes and goes or comes and doesn't go but they're stuck next to each other for the forseeable future as long as tectonic plates don't separate us which for middle east wouldn't be a bad idea but anyway, they don't want to get into this shit for economical, political and other reasons.

If UAE was to outright lend hand to US, for example providing service to US warships DURING a conflict, they'd become a legitimate target and unlike ships, you can't drag whole countries away. So a country like UAE which counts on oil and commerce with international community and counts on a lot of outside money pouring in wouldn't want to get involved.

Now the idea of IR blowing ships in there to make a point to UAE that helping them realize they wouldn't want to help US/Saudis seems counter productive, at the very least it carries the risk of a 180 and in fact push UAE into the arms of US... or pushing the 'arms' of the US right into UAE... hehe... get it? because arms mean... thank you thank you, don't forget to tip your waiters, I'll be here all week, FPoP's stand up show is here to stay, I'm punning for the permanent position ya'll.

So where was I oh yeah, totally coutner productive right? well to a rational mind definitely, at the very least it carries that risk... but unfortunately there are people on top level here that don't seem very rational. To them, the idea of beating a kid or threatening a kid so that they wouldn't take side with a bigger guy seems totally logical.

So IF IR did it, did they do it as a message to UAE? Don't help US or else these ships look very precious and fragile and would be a shame if soemthing to happen to them? Did they do it as a message to Saudis? Basically telling them to stop feeding the fire or the gulf will plunge into another tanker war and it wouldn't be good for anybody? Or a message to the international community? "See? we CAN turns this entire gulf into shit show."

Oh since we're in middle east, throw in the oligatory Mossad false flag theory as well. We can't have a theory without them. It'd be wrong.

comedy researchers at the university of chicago recently published peer reviewed numerical data and analysis proving that "european military" is the funniest 8 syllable phrase in the english language

In case they try to pretend they never reported it later.

>Taliban
>Shooting Down a B52

Yeah, ok. B52s are not flying out of A'stan, therefore there's no reason to be flying low enough to get hit by Taliban ground fire. No manpad in the world capable of hitting a high altitude B52.

This is hokem. If there is any shred of truth to this it's probably an Antinov transport or something. That however is a BIG IF.

>>118939
This goes for any big bird the US would be using in theater other than C130 platforms.

B1's fly out of a British colony in the Indian Ocean, B52s I believe are still flying from the UK and last I heard Awacs were flying from Germany.

So yeah horse droppings, dear boy.

Weld is a wishy-washy anti-gun moron. Accepting him to run as the VP on the Libertarian ballot was equally stupid.

Future generations will ask why Americans didn't resist when the US became a police state.

because a obese man spraypainted orange shouted at them that MS13 was going to steal the tools out of their garage.

Caesar was very popular when he crossed the Rubicon too, the people demanded it. Might have been the people Caesar planted in the crowd that started it all, but eventually everyone was demanding it.

If Obamacare has not been repealed, the trade deficit is rising, the debt is increasing, the US is still at war, the Bill of Rights has not been restored, there is no wall, and Assange is in jail, but Clinton isn't, is Trump any different from Obama?

WTF?

3D chess, right?

Checkmate

When Americans get sent to the concentration camps, will the Gestapo listen to their consciences or to the captains who sign their paychecks?

Not only is the US a police state, Americans say that they live in a free country, beg for their chains by asking for more laws, and censor anyone who defends freedom.

Warning ungrateful Americans about the dangers of tyranny today is like yelling to your roommates that the apartment is on fire and being told to shut up while they pour gas on the furniture.

Enslaved Americans worship their beloved government so much now that they look like the Russians who cried when Stalin died.

Americans insist that tyranny won't get worse when history has shown that it certainly will. All the lines have been crossed.

Every minute the tyranny, war, and debt continues will result in a bloodier revolution when the US Ponzi economy implodes.

One hopes that patriots are taking down the names of the elites and politicians to be used when the US house of a cards crumbles.

The USA is so far gone now that freedom loving patriots don't know if they should do more to save the country or cheer the collapse.

When our overlords start WWIII with China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran, patriots will wonder which side they should take.

One of the reasons the US is collapsing now is that the meaning of words have been changed.

Free speech is said to be not free speech.

Religious freedom is said to be not religious freedom.

Gun rights are said to be not gun rights.

Warrantless searches are said to be not warrantless searches.

Forfeiture is said to be not forfeiture.

The right to silence is called not the right to silence.

Torture is called not torture.

Americans are so enslaved now that if wearing a baseball hat was punishable with a sentence of 1 year in jail, Americans would scream that the punishment should be longer.

WAKE UP SHEEPLE!!!1

No one hates freedom more than Americans do.

If Americans don't defend free speech, religious freedom, gun rights, freedom from unconstitutional searches and seizures, the right to silence, and the freedom from torture and extrajudicial assassination, what part of the Bill of Rights do they support?

What country is this?

One wonders if Snowden regrets throwing away his life to warn ungrateful Americans about unconstitutional NSA wire-tapping.

>>118864
The 4th amendment protects against UNREASONABLE searches and seizures.
Which means reasonable searches and seizures are allowed without a warrant.
The courts have established several common reasonable searches. One example is search incident to arrest. When you get arrested, you are searched prior to incarceration in jail.
Most people don’t understand the law, and often, when I see YouTube videos with people complaining about an unlawful search, they are mistaken.
When a cop does make a bad search, the defense attorneys, and the judge will toss the evidence. That is the way it is supposed to work.

Does anyone get the feeling that anyone supporting the police state now is a paid NSA shill?

I wonder where they got the idea?

Americans used to think hippies were lazy fruits for dropping out during the Vietnam War, but maybe the hippies had the right idea after all.

If you can't change a corrupt system, why be a part of it?

The US is a bankrupt warmongering police state, but nothing will change because Americans think everything is just fine.

Most people support the police state until they become a victim of it.

>>118857
Lmao, what's psychotic about revenge? The guy did what muslims have been doing from the inception of their religion which advocates for it as well.

>>118858
If you support group punishment you are a barbaric piece of shit. Pretty simple.

>>118859
No point in setting rules for yourself if the opponent doesn't play by them as well. You should deal the same punishment back, preferably even more vicious and cruel.

Fuckin' shackledraggers.

Leave it to australians to enact gun bans and censorship everywhere.
