Dubba G — Tue, 19 Feb 2013 18:40:43 +0000

So, there was this big prostitution bust yesterday in El Paso…….

An online “escort service” got caught and a handful of people went to jail. All the effort [...]

Dubba G — Wed, 23 Jan 2013 20:09:31 +0000

Has anyone currently in Washington ever even read the WTF-ing constitution? ‘Cuz they sure don’t seem to “get it”… A bill is making its way through the system now that will allocate government funds for motorcycle checkpoints. Motorcycles ONLY. They’re calling them safety inspections but that’s BS. (If it were truly about safety, sobriety or [...]

Newest advancements in drug smuggling from Mexico show smugglers are using cannons to launch drugs from Mexico to the US where they are picked up by drug runners. The US is having a hard time combatting this new development, so plans to strike a deal with the cartels are now in place.

How Would Legalizing Marijuana Affect Mexico?

Dubba G — Fri, 09 Nov 2012 19:54:34 +0000

I hadn’t really thought about it myself. A couple of states legalized marijuana in the recent election and, for many, it was a great day. I think it’s time we looked at its benefits. Those that claim there are no benefits, I would think, must at least acknowledge that it’s negative effect on people is nothing compared to [...]

WTF Wednesday: Even Pitbull Lookalike Breeds Are Evil? [VIDEO]

Dubba G — Wed, 11 Jul 2012 21:21:58 +0000

Really? You can’t even resemble Pitbulls now without being declared “Canine enemy #1″? Apparently not in Ireland. A family pet was actually recently put to death for looking like a Pit. That’s it. Furthermore, the family was not allowed to say goodbye and only a portion of the dogs ashes were given to them following the [...]

The Whole World is Going Down the Toilet – Politicians are Trying to Prevent Peeing While Standing

Johnnie Walker — Thu, 14 Jun 2012 05:24:41 +0000

You'd think with everything going on in the world, that politicians would be focused on things that really matter. Depressed economies, world hunger, terrorism...something, right? But get this - they're only working on the dumbest crap you can imagine. A great example: It seems the biggest problem in Sweden right now is those evil urinators in bathrooms!

Seriously.

Buzz Adams — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 21:28:23 +0000

You may have seen by now the dramatic video of the woman giving birth to her baby in the car as her husband drives her to the hospital. This took place in Waxahachie, Texas and mother and daughter are both doing fine. Now, I don’t know what all the laws and ordinances in Waxahachie are, but I do know that if this had happened in El Paso, there would be a number of laws being scoffed at.

Shauna Wright — Tue, 08 Nov 2011 17:28:43 +0000

In a 29-page decision on Monday, US District Judge Richard J. Leon blocked the implementation of a law on graphic cigarette photos. It would’ve required tobacco companies to include explicit photos detailing the dangers of smoking on cigarette packages.

The 36 images proposed by the Food and Drug Administration include a picture of diseased lungs next to healthy lungs, a man exhaling smoke through a hole in his throat, and a male cadaver with chest staples down his torso.
