Oh, that is one of those Russian plastic mines the sowed across mountain passes in Afghanistan back in the 1980s!

Yes, I used to read SOLDIER OF FORTUNE magazine in my younger day.

To lose a foot is a tragedy. To lose both a foot and a lower left leg is sheer carelessness.

... and we never heard an explanation of how terrorist exposives ended up in the largest park in our largest city.

Dropped by a pokemon, most likely.

Hopefully he'll pay more attention in the future about where he leaves things. Losing keys or a phone is one thing but body parts... Just careless.

Wasn't bad enough that you made fun of a conservative female radio personality who got shot in the head several years ago, now you're making fun of a kid that got most of a leg blown off.

You're one sick POS.

Yup, nothing says funny like a kid maimed for life, a--hole.

I carry my "safe place" with me.

Not meant to harm anyone. It was hidden under a rock, and when someone stepped on the rock, it blew his leg off. Sorry. That was a terrorist, I don’t care who it was.

"Totally a spontaneous center fuel-tank explosion."

Yep! Maybe the kid's cellphone short-circuited...

The kid’s parents need to get him out of Bellevue. That place is notorious and if he stays there he’s gonna die.
