Blind justice is

Post by Stuart Mackey »

It Takes a Thief...or justice is blind
A thief died trying to flee an art museum in Bonn, Germany. Peter Grüber panicked after being surprised by a security guard at the Klausmann Museum of Art and when he raced around a corner, impaled himself upon a 4ft-long sword held by a statue of a blindfolded soldier. The exhibit is called "The Weapon of Justice". (Guardian, 29 June 2000).

I have always felt that information should be witty and to the point.
The person in question obviously was not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Talk about "Cutting to the chase"
Or better yet "Cutting out the Middleman"
This rates about an 7.4 on the Bean Scale of Irony

Heh, that is so ironic...
"Bud light?… I thought you said sword fight?"
St. Petersburg, FL. Feb. 2002. A 46-year-old man was stabbed in the stomach with a swordfish bill as he was striking another patron repeatedly in the head with a beer bottle during a bar fight. (source: St. Pete Times).

Here's a good tip
Rib Mountain, WI. Aug. 2000. A 21-year old man wearing a hood and brandishing a stainless steel samurai sword burst into the small town Aldi grocery store, knocking over a rack of cookies, scattering them, and then ordering the cashier to hand over her money. He banged his sword on the counter causing the tip to bend. A shopper picked up a can of fruit cocktail and threw it at the robber but missed him. The sword bandit fled with his bent tipped weapon and next forced the keys from a motorist leaving a car. Police quickly apprehended the man who admitted he had acquired his robbery techniques from watching movies. (source: Daily Athenaeum interactive).

Do you think the charges will stick?

He won't have the heart to do that again.

Perhaps he was going to share a cut.

LOL. Think of it as evolution in action.
It's not my place in life to make people happy. Don't talk to me unless you're prepared to watch me slaughter cows you hold sacred. Don't talk to me unless you're prepared to have your basic assumptions challenged. If you want bunnies in light, talk to someone else.
