So the other one that pulled got too over the top, I guess. I thought some of the comments were hilarious. Tasteless, disgusting, insensitive, but absolutely hilarious...

This reminds me of a peace protest in San Francisco late last year. Some peaceniks rented a double decker bus with a sun roof to go into the city as a group. A man and a woman on the top decker took the opportunity to stand with their heads out the top of the bus as it passed through a tunnel under one of the hills in San Francisco. What these two forget to think about was that the tunnel had a steep decline in height at the opposite end. People on the bus said they heard two loud "thumps" as the bus exited the tunnel. They both died a few days later due to a "sever headache."

It does make you wonder if peaceniks are naturally stupid and if they take lessons to get that dumb.

Does this guy get semi-credit as a human shield? His family will now sue the Bush administration for "causing" his death.

I think this thread earns the all-time award for most comments removed by Admin Moderator in such a short span...

Now, as for what I'd like to say about this idiot, I can only say this...

What do you mean? What happens to the body when it hits water from that height? does it splatter like hitting concrete? or does it stay intact?

I knew a guy that fell from an aircraft carrier, and he broke his legs and arm in the fall into the water, but a carrier is not as high off the water. I heard of another guy that fell off a carrier, and he didnt break anything.

If THIS is what the liberals mean by "late term abortion" or "Post Birth Abortion"......I've decided I'm all for it..

This raises natural selection to a higher level...

Liberals ofter run their mouth without benefit of thinking ...but they had better learn quickly that putting their bodies in dangerous places before THINKING --- can cause grave damage....

I have no compassion for fools that destroy themselves..
I'll reserve my compassion for innocents destroyed by lunatics that these a$$holes support..

Semper Fi
