Actually, they don't have a Los Angeles County in England.   Come to think of it they don't have a Los Angeles County in Pennsylvania either.   Nope, the Channel Five Los Angeles TV station tells us it is not Lancaster, UK.

Don’t think many young whites in USA named “Maurice” recently. In the UK, perhaps. Awful crime. Crazy & evil people in all races though.

Similar to reporting a broken water pipe to shut down ballot counting.

Why did the story report him as a black?

As he was loaded into the squad car, he stated, “There can be only one.”

Mistakes were made.

Yep, and the biggest of them is the abandonment of capital punishment for capital crimes.

Snip from anoter article

Deputies found the children’s bodies in separate bedrooms in the
home, Lt. Brandon Dean said. The two children were identified by
sheriff’s officials as a 12-year-old boy and a 13-year-old girl. It’s
unclear how long they had been dead, Dean said.

Both parents were in the home when deputies responded Friday morning;
they were detained without a struggle and brought in for questioning.
The children’s mother was questioned but has not been arrested,
Dean said.

Well! If that’s all true perhaps he shouldn’t have even been arrested!

“There can be only one.”

If that a reference to the film The Exorcist?

Because in my post that you replied to I mentioned the possibility of an exorcism of some sort as a potential motive for the bizarre killings.


FATHER KARRAS: I think it would be helpful if I gave you some background on the different personalities Regan has manifested. So far, there seems to be three. She’s convinced...

FATHER MERRIN [abruptly interrupting]: There’s only one.

Sorry, not familiar with that movie.

Found this on it, though...

“There can be only one” is the belief and motto among the immortals in the original Highlander film, its sequels and spin-offs.

It implies that all immortals must fight and kill one another until only one remains standing; this “one” shall receive The Prize.

—Highlander (1986 film)

There’s another story about a personal trainer in Lancaster,PA involved in scandal, but this incident in California is bizarre.

Wasn't humorous to me since I never saw that dopey-looking movie.

Was it as stupid as it seems to be?

Scott Adams of Dilbert fame says that one third of humans don't have a sense of humor.

He says that they sort of fake it to blend in.

“No, it’s a cardigan, but thanks for noticing!”

LOL!!! Wasn’t that a funny line??

No? What’s wrong with you, don’t you have a sense of humor?

BTW- I’ve never actually seen the movie Dumb & Dumber and was not at all familiar with the quote “No, it’s a cardigan, but thanks for noticing!”.
It was just something I found on a random search for movie quotes. Not having ever seen the film I have no clue why it’s considered a funny line.

“It was embarrassing — you could hear her yelling at him,” Kern said. “He’d be very apologetic and she’d be yelling at him.”

Sounds so much like eunuch obama getting berated by his wife big Mike.
