Hostage released, suspect still holed up in mail truck

Posted on 01/31/2003 9:11:33 AM PST by PhiKapMom

Fox and MSNBC reporting there is postal truck being driven by a woman postal employee that has been hijacked. People are actually approaching the truck as it slows down and one guy just threw his hands in the air as the postal truck drove off!

Carol City!

Course Bush and Blair have to pretend they have actually been talking about Iraq all day, instead of starin' at the mail truck along with the rest of us.

Your explanation makes sense, actually.

I know several Miami-Dade cops who have specialized training in terrorism, chemical and biological weapons.

It might have been a training exercise for the rookies, in case we have a terrorist attack in South Florida.

Since I consider the Miami-Dade cops to be some of the best in the world, your explanation, if correct, will satisfy my original concerns.

Maybe he was looking for rebate checks to support his methamphetamine habit. That's what they caught a local postal supervisor doing with the US Mail (his wife turned him in).

Maybe they've been having showers to appear fresh and clean for the cameras. :)

Moron surrenders at 4:09 PM

Februaruy 2003 - Moron pleads insanity...plea bargin enables perp to get off with a charge that renders him 2-3 years in prison

December 25, 2003 - Moron enjoys Christmas, being thankful that he's in an institution with cable TV and nice health club. June 2004 - Moron gets his G.E.D.

March 2005 - Moron gets off on parole because of good behavior

December 2005 - Moron applies for and recieves welfare from the state of Florida, does not work, and has not been rehabilitated...he continues to be a leech on society.

This presentation has been funded by the taxpayers of the United States of America.

You're absolutely right, especially here in Florida.

Most of our violent criminals are recidivists; until recently we had a generous early release program that allowed thousands of violent felons to be released automatically after serving 2/3 of their sentences.

Then you add up the fact that most judges give out the lightest sentences possible, you will be surprised at seeing the same face mugging you every other year.

We ask our LEOs to risk their lives to apprehend these pervs, and then the system fails, allowing the pervs out in a few months.

No one has asked the all important question...

How is the left going to pin this situation on Jeb???

But anyway, it now appears a spike strip was used and blew out tires right before the postal truck came to a stop. I knew I was not seeing things. It happened so quick and the media never reran that portion of the tape. : )

It was practice for when we bomb saddam. We havent had any practice in a while : )

Its going to be so hard to get anything done once the war starts. I hope we can share our housecleaning techniques again.

Dog, again, just throw a little bleach in the toilet and house smells like you cleaned and also cleans the toilet : )

Dusting has become much easier thanks to the SWIFFER. You can even buy the swiffer mitt now : )

The swiffer mitt! Dusting that wont interfere when the bombs start falling.


Use the Swiffer Mitt anywhere you normally dust, as well as on these items:
