“But if you think the FBI is some beacon of virtue, consider Richard Jewel.”
For that matter, consider the late Bruce Ivins.
Jim Rome interviewed Evel and Evel was telling him about how his people were telling him to stop the Snake River Canyon stunt and that there was a good chance he could die.
When Rome asked him why he didn’t pull our or at least reschedule it Evel Said.
“Do you know who the hell I am? I’m Evel “Freaking” Kneivel”

How about Obama openly campaigning for his communist cousin Odinga who signed a pact with Muslims to enact Sharia Law if elected and started riots when he lost. Obama campaigned for an openly Anti-American candidate in a foreign country in 2006.

Wyo. Man Sentenced for Failed Pond Jump
Associated Press/ Feb 4
SHERIDAN, Wyo. - A man who drove an old car into a pond in a failed attempt to jump over it, has been sentenced to 270 days in jail.
Wayland Justin Williams, 24, of Sheridan, pleaded guilty Tuesday to property destruction, dispensing an offensive matter in a pond and abandoning a motor vehicle on state land.
Circuit Judge John Sampson fined him $690. For driving through a fence, Williams must also pay $200 to a rancher who holds a state permit to graze livestock on the land.
According to court documents, Williams polluted the bass pond with oil and gasoline when he drove the old Buick into it.
The incident and other damage to the 8,000-acre tract of state land prompted the state Board of Land Commissioners to close the area to motorized vehicles Jan. 1-July 1.
States the Sheridan County sheriff’s report: “Wayland claimed he had tried to jump the pond with the green Buick, and that he would have made it had he built a ramp.”
He certainly did things that made his moniker fitting, yet there was another side,
“I was really, really mad at Evel over the whole thing, but he apologized at least 10 times, and said it was out of his control and I believed him,” Gill said.
Gill, who was paralyzed after a failed stunt, said Knievel tried to help him set up a meeting with a doctor who Gill thought would help him walk again. He said Knievel also devised a plan to help pay for the expenses.
“Evel’s never done any wrong besides that one little incident,” Gill said. “And he’s made up for it 1,000 times.”
