Some "hero". A career criminal by 16 when he was charged, at one time, with 28 felonies! And anybody thinks this airplane stealing burglar is any kind of person worth adulation?

Scares me to think that a couple of backwoods Bahamian cops were able to do what the entire law enforcement community of the U.S. couldn't. They had everyone short of the CIA trying to catch this guy. Gotta be some real encouragement to any terrorist, outsmarted by a 19 year old punk. I hope they find those who helped him and charge them with aiding and abetting all these felonies too. Well, at least we'll be able to move on with the news now. Maybe the lame stream media can start noticing some of the important things going on, like the criminal activities of Obama and his administration.

His days were numbered. He is an arrogant 19 year old teenager, and now, he's at that adult age, he will be seeing the inside of a prison. Its sad that he chose to continue his crime spree. He could have gone far if not for this.

Just think what he could have done on the right side of the law. What a waste, but he chose his path and now will pay for his deeds.

We will see. His mother has hired some entertainment attorney and did so before the guy was caught. Surely some movie company will buy the rights and then he will have cash which equals lawyers which equals we will see.

Apparently nobody was ever hurt by this guy. His having a gun goes against everything that even some FBI people said he would not do.

Well, perhaps the Bahamian police haven't been nutered and handcuffed so they don't have to deal with "profiling" issues and "protecting" the criminals "rights" at all costs like here in the U.S..

In regards to the "lame stream media", they will never notice/bring up Obama's f-uck ups and his incompetency.

Of the majority of those polled,(current) well over 50% now, feel Obama is incompetent to be President. However, the liberal media will try to cover his a/s/s so as not to embarress themselves for being the Obama boot licker fools they are. It's simply hilarius, they "have" to stand by him, and support the moron they put in office who is dividing and destroying this country more each day.

Daily Horoscope for February 13

Sagittarius

It's time to muster all your resources and energies and push through to the next level. The harmony between Mars and Saturn will support your efforts. If you need to dig deeper into shared resources or your credit facilities, now's the time to do so. With careful planning and perhaps family support, you can consolidate and somehow find greater security. This is a calculation not a risk though.
