Death of Common Sense

The fate of Common Sense is in your hands…

Common Sense died as we entered the Naughties; six-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment
for kissing a classmate, teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch, teacher fired for
reprimanding an unruly student, schools required to get parental consent to administer aspirin to a
student, honor student expelled for having a table knife in her school lunch, a government plan to ban
inhalers from 14 million asthmatics due to a trace of a pollutant that may be harmful to the environment.
 
Common Sense gets resurrected here and now.

Father denies killing wife

They Say:
“A man who left his three-year-old daughter at Melbourne’s Southern Cross station says he is being framed for murdering his wife in New Zealand. Nai Yin Xue claims another man killed her and stuffed the body into the boot of his car.

Xue, 54, fled Auckland in September soon after his wife disappeared. He abandoned his daughter Qian Xun at Southern Cross before flying to the USA. The girl was dubbed Pumpkin after a logo on her clothes.

The body of Anan Liu, 27, was found in the boot of a car outside the couple’s house in Auckland.
A manhunt for Xue ended five months later near Atlanta, Georgia. He was flown to New Zealand to face a murder charge.

Xue’s lawyer, Chris Comeskey, said yesterday his client “would vigorously defend the murder charge on the grounds he was not Liu’s killer”. He said he planned to hire a private investigator to find the man Xue claims killed his wife.”

We Say:

Wake up and smell the lies people… This fucking oxygen thief is seriously kidding himself isn’t he…? Oh… no no let’s forget the fact that you DUMPED YOUR FUCKING DAUGHTER IN AUSTRALIA!

So fuck yea assface, we’ll believe that you dumped your daughter in Australia, then fled to the US as a typical holiday for you… Well fuck me I’d hate to see a longer term trip plan….

  1. Beat son to within an inch of his life - dump in Brazil
  2. Blindfold and torture Aunty - dump in Russia
  3. Hog tie brother in law - dump in Sri Lanka
  4. Perform stupid martial art - get filmed doing it
  5. Visit EuroDisney in Paris, France
  6. Go walkabout in Afghanistan

Just see that you go dancing with the Taliban while in Afghanistan, you fat fucker…

I pity the judge that handles this case, they’re going to need a portable sewing machine to stitch their sides up once they’ve heard his story…

Take it like a man you gutless pig… You killed her….

Boat driver in fatal crash revealed

Boat

This should never have happened

Boat driver in fatal crash revealed

They Say:
“Cocktail barman Percy Small has been named as the man at the wheel of the runabout when it crashed into a larger fishing boat, killing six people.Detectives investigating the crash will compare forensic evidence and witness statements after it was initially claimed Matthew Reynolds was at the helm.The two boats collided on Sydney Harbour a week ago about 2.40am (AEST) near Bradleys Head.

Of the 14 people on the overloaded, 23-foot runabout, six died and eight were injured, including Mr Reynolds who remains in hospital in a satisfactory condition.It is believed those on board have also claimed that a third person may have been at the wheel during some point in the journey, News Limited reports.

Witnesses have told police that after Mr Reynolds, a qualified skipper, negotiated the boat from Balmain Wharf he handed the controls over to Mr Small. Mr Small, who holds a boating licence and did not appear affected by alcohol, safely took the boat across the harbour to Watsons Bay. On their way back to Balmain, the boats collided, and it is believed both boats had their lights on at the time, News Limited reports.”

We Say:
I feel for the people that have died in this accident, but it should never had happened…

I don’t believe the weight of those that died on the planner and\or ’skipper’ of the boats’ soul will be enough, how could someone be so STUPID as to ‘borrow’ someones boat and go for a joyride in the middle of the night…
The boat was overloaded, everyone was affected by alcohol in some way or another and then to ‘borrow’ someones boat that you only knew distantly… What the fuck?

I think I might borrow the next flashy car I see in the street, if I have an accident my excuse for borrowing it will be: “Oh I know their third cousin through someone my uncle plays cricket with once a year” NOT GOING TO FUCKING HAPPEN!!!

Mind you, how fucking moronic to get on the boat in the first place, idiots… a tragedy nonetheless, but how easily avoided it could have been…

And to ANYONE who even TRIES to blame the fishing trawler, wake up and smell the alcohol, fool…

Padded lampposts for distracted texters

Padded lampposts for distracted texters

They Say:
“According to a recent report, human beings are becoming so incredibly stupid that they require cushioned lamppost bases so that when they run into them they don’t mess up their idiotic faces. Apparently, a study in the UK found that one in ten people actually managed to hurt themselves by walking into a post while peering down at their mobile phone screen. The mishaps — called “walking and texting” injuries — have spurred the charity Living Streets to launch the padded-post-pilot scheme in Brick Lane, London. It seems that if all goes well, there are plans to roll out the idiot-proof system in Birmingam, Manchester, and Stupidton.”

We Say:
Ho… Wha… Wh… *brain explodes*

Are we such fucking IDIOTIC lemmings that we seriously need to trial these things…? Surely not… I had held greater hopes for mankind, but my hopes have been dashed…

If you watch the movie attached to the above article, you will surely shake your head as hard as I did… Please tell me that this is some sort of joke?  The mind boggles, surely getting an injury in such a way would ward against you doing it again, right?  Well with padded fucking posts people will be bouncing off them left, right and centre… Hey let’s just not watch where we’re going at all, let’s just pad everything on the street… Coming to a dealership near you, the new Ford Foam… with padded panels for your safety… Give me a fucking break… If you’re going to text… STOP WALKING!

And to the Indian dude that reads his book while walking out of the train station in the mornings, if I have to slow down for you once more, I *WILL* mow you down… And I won’t come with fucking padding either… You’re on notice… 

Car Hits Md. Street-Race Crowd; 8 Killed

That’s right dude, your brother was an idiot….

Car Hits Md. Street-Race Crowd; 8 Killed

They Say:
“A car plowed into a group of street-racing fans obscured by a cloud of tire smoke on a highway Saturday, killing eight people and scattering bodies in the early morning darkness. At least five others were injured in the gruesome wreck along a flat, isolated stretch of highway about 20 miles south of Washington known for illegal races.

About 50 people were gathered before dawn along Route 210 as two cars spun their wheels, kicked up smoke and sped off, said Prince George’s County police Cpl. Clinton Copeland. Fans had spilled onto the smoky, dark road to watch the cars drive away when a white Ford Crown Victoria unexpectedly came up from behind and smashed into them. “There were just bodies everywhere; it was horrible,” said Crystal Gaines, 27, of Indian Head, whose father was killed. Police interviewed the Crown Victoria driver, but no charges were pending, Copeland said. Authorities were looking for the drivers of the two cars involved in the race.

The combination of the smoke and the dark morning likely meant the unsuspecting driver could not see the crowd, police said. A tractor-trailer that came by shortly afterward may also have struck someone on the roadside as it tried to avoid the crash scene, according to investigators. The Crown Victoria, which had a crumpled hood and a partially collapsed roof, ended up down an embankment with one of the victims lodged inside.”

We Say:
Anyone for irony here at all? Fans of illegal street racing, killed… *gasp* By a car while they were watching an illegal street race… This borders on funny to be honest… The families if these morons have no one to blame but the people themselves, they took the risk of being there… For fucks sake, it’s an illegal event… No crowd control… No security… No OH&S regulations… You fucking idiots…

I can’t get over this statement…”About 50 people were watching the race, Gaines said, and she saw the Crown Victoria approach without its lights on. She grabbed her daughter, pulling the girl to safety. But her father, William Gaines Sr., 61, had a broken leg, and was not able to get away in time.”
Let me get this straight… She grabbed her daughter, not her father… So there are three generations of the same family at an illegal street race… Hmmm, just a fucking pity they all weren’t hit, I’m just guessing here, as I don’t think this family is at the top of the food chain… Err… Trucks and keg parties anyone? Something’s gotta be wrong up top to have three generations of the same family at an event like this, anyone want petrol with their cereal this morning? You goddamn oxygen thieves…

I feel sorry for the driver of the ‘Ford Crown Victoria’, whatever the fuck that is(?), not quite sure how you can see what’s ahead of you when the road is shrouded in fucking tire smoke from the start of a street race… Although he did not have his lights on, it does not really matter, lights or no lights, visibility through tire smoke is fucking shocking… I think he should be given the keys to the city for his service to the community… Hey, he knocked out eight people that would be otherwise wasting their unemployment benefits or rotting in their jails… Seems like a fair situation, right?

Timor’s foreign troops blamed

Where the fuck were YOU, dickhead?

Timor’s foreign troops blamed

They Say:

The head of Australia’s forces in East Timor, Brigadier James Baker, says there was nothing his troops could have done to prevent Monday’s assassination attempts on the country’s top two leaders. East Timor’s army chief, Taur Matan Ruak, accused the international security forces in his country yesterday of failing to prevent the attacks, and called for an international investigation to determine the full facts.

Mr Gusmao’s Australian-born wife, Kirsty Sword Gusmao, told last night how their home was surrounded by armed men just minutes before her husband was attacked by armed rebels. She told ABC TV that during the time between when Dr Ramos Horta was shot and her husband’s convoy was ambushed, armed men surrounded their home.

As a state of emergency was declared in Dili, finger-pointing began, with East Timor’s Commander Ruak blaming international forces, which include the Australian-led International Stabilisation Force, for failing to prevent the assassination attempts.

“Given the high number of international forces present in East Timor, in particular within the capital, how is it possible that vehicles transporting armed people have entered the city and executed an approach to the residences of the President … and the Prime Minster without having been detected?” he said.

“There has been a lack of capacity shown by the international forces, who have primary responsibility for the security within East Timor to foresee, react and prevent these events.”

We Say:

Just say the word fuck features and we’ll withdraw every single troop and staff member helping your pathetic little country out… Just slip back into unrest already will you!

How fucking DARE you point the finger at international troops, where the FUCK where YOUR goddamn troops… We’ve got a right mind to give you the finger and tell you to stick your issues where they can fit… Are they seriously fucking kidding us?

It’s not like fucking Iraq where Australia can get its hands on something in East Timor, it’s a fucking hole, we’re there to help them get back onto their feet, not fucking shove our beliefs and our ‘way of life’ down their throats…

We’ve lost troops in this ‘peace keeping’ mission, so get fucked East Timor… I see now that the Aussie troops are in charge of hunting down the people involved in the raids and assassination attempts… Hey you’ll let us organise that, but bag the living crap out of us for it happening… Look in your own fucking backyard before criticising others dickhead… I swear to god, one more word out of this little pin dick and Australia will wipe East Timor off the fucking map… The fucking cheek of this little turd…

Oh… Hang on… Where was the President Ramos Horta flown to for medical treatment, oh that’s right AUSTRALIA! Need I fucking say more… Oh look, we’re sending 150 more troops over to join the 900 already there, fuck we must be doing such a bad job… Hmm… 900 already there, I demand to know why those 900 were keeping the peace in other parts of East Timor and not protecting the President!!! It’s not like East Timor has its own army…? Oh… Hang on… Taur Matan Ruak, East Timor Army Chief… Nuff said, yea?

Taur Matan Ruak, you fail….

Suspected Church Arsonist Brags On GameFaqs Forums

fail!

Nice equivalent I think… Dickhead…

They Say:

“A teenage boy has been arrested on suspected arson charges for burning down a Palmyra, MO church. What makes this game related you may ask? It seems that GameFaqs forum poster “Jediknight12345″ (original, eh?) made a post in the “Current Events” page asking readers if he should burn down a school and a church. The post was quickly removed by forum administrators and then a few days later another post showed up from the same person.

This time, Jediknight12345 bragged that he had in fact burned a church/school down, described how he did it and even went so far as to post pictures of the event for posterity. Fellow forum posters immediately alerted local news station WGEM and authorities leading to the teenager’s arrest. According to recent reports, the arrested suspect was a member of the church and its attached school.”

We Say:

Only in fucking America I swear… This kid must be pretty fucked up… Awww… Should I burn down this school and church?? Sure fuck features go right ahead… This kid must be a psychologists wet dream… I can imagine them falling over themselves to have a crack at this kid… What a fucktard, good job there parents… *Thumbs up*

And to discuss it on a gaming forum, STOP GIVING GAMERS A BAD NAME YOU LITTLE TWERP! *shakes head* Confessing and gloating on a gaming forum to arson is the equivalent to the following….

  • Handing in a ransom note, in person…
  • Extorting…. Your next door neighbor…
  • Launching a cyber attack… From within the FBI… On a dial-up modem…
  • Starting a pirate radio station… Under the transmitter for a major radio station…
  • Planning and executing a hold-up… On a police station….
  • Leeroy Jenkins…

I think this site sums up my feelings towards this kid… Dude, you fucking FAIL!

Two men killed in stolen car

They Say:
“Two men from Brisbane’s southside have been killed in a stolen car which collided with a truck on the Pacific Motorway.
Police said the 18-year-old man from Daisy Hill and the 20-year-old man from Loganholme died after the car they were in hit a truck on the Pacific Motorway at 7.10pm (AEST) yesterday.

The car had earlier been stolen from a shopping centre at West Burleigh on the Gold Coast. Two men, one armed with a knife, had threatened the owner before stealing personal property and car keys from the man. Less than ten minutes later, the driver of the vehicle apparently lost control and collided with the truck on the motorway south of Nerang.

The passenger was killed at the scene and the driver died in an ambulance on the way to hospital. The truck driver was treated by ambulance paramedics for shock.”

We Say:

Thank you natural selection for taking out the trash…

I feel for the truck driver here, he was just driving his truck, doing his JOB, and he is involved in a fatal accident, I’m thankful that he is only being treated for shock…

And as for those other two fuckwits, good riddance, there is no excuses for stealing someone elses property, let alone their goddamn car, you low bastards… You got what you deserved…. Saves Australia tax-payers the cost of throwing them in jail… Enjoy hell Fuckwads…

I challenge anyone to question this… They got what they deserved, what if they had of hit a family van full of kids… huh? I fucking though so…

Church members to picket Heath Ledger’s funeral

Church members to picket Heath Ledger’s funeral

WBC-Tools

This is how it should be… You fuckers….
Source: a picture worth a thousand words

They Say:
“A US church says actor Heath Ledger is in hell because he played a gay cowboy in one of his films, and has vowed to picket his funeral. The Westboro Baptist Church (WBC), a Kansas-based congregation known for its demonstrations outside funerals for US soldiers killed in Iraq, said the Perth-born Australian actor who died yesterday was “now in hell”. “WBC will picket this pervert’s funeral in religious protest,” the group said in a statement on its website. “God hates the sordid, tacky bucket of slime seasoned with vomit known as Brokeback Mountain – and He hates all persons having anything to whatsoever to do with it.

“Heath Ledger is now in hell, and has begun serving his eternal sentence there.” Ledger, 28, was found dead in his Manhattan apartment yesterday. A post-mortem examination has been inconclusive and toxicology tests are being performed to determine what, if any, drugs were in his system when he died. Ledger was nominated for an Oscar for his portrayal of gay cowboy Ennis Del Mar in Brokeback Mountain, a role for which he was widely admired.”

We Say:

Of all the lowest cunt acts I have seen in recent times and there have been so so many, care of America, and once again the lucky country throws up another one… How fucking DARE these arseholes even contemplate doing such a thing on such a sad sad occasion, I’m all for voicing your opinion and standing up for what you think is right, but this is just the lowest of low… Do these people have no sympathy towards the family of Heath Ledger at all? Their young son\brother\nephew\uncle has just died, let them fucking grieve!!!

Put your bullshit good for nothing placards away, no one gives a fuck about your cause… If I had the time and\or money I would make it over to WA go picket the picketers… I think such placards as the following would to down well…

WBC1 WBC3

WBC2 WBC4

We’ve all seen the attacks against Scientology, as discussed by Andrew Sayer aka @andrewsayer in his blog so when it is WBC’s fucking turn, something really needs to be done… Make it happen people…

Woman killed as train crushes car

Woman killed as train crushes car

StupidBeetle

Red means go… Huh?

They Say:

“A Young preschool teacher who was about to be married died when her small car was crushed after being hit by a V/Line train. Kay Stanley stood no chance when she drove her Volkswagen Beetle across railway tracks as the train approached Tyabb station yesterday morning. Despite efforts by the train’s driver to slow down, the train slammed into the VW’s driver’s door, dragging it more than 200m along the track. Wedged under the front of the train, the little car then slammed into the station platform, where it was completely crushed between concrete and train.

Shocked Tyabb residents, angry the crossing does not have boom gates, stared in disbelief and distress as what was left of the car was eventually towed away. Tyabb shift supervisor Earle Sellers, 57, said he believed the crossing was an accident waiting to happen. “Motorists travelling east along Mornington-Tyabb Rd usually have the sun in their eyes in the morning and are most likely to be concentrating on the more noticeable traffic lights just ahead of the crossing,” Mr Sellers said.”

We Say:
I had to bring this to peoples attention… Since fucking when do flashing red lights and bells mean “Hey! Go right ahead, cross the track!” people who bitch and moan about having boom gates and that boom gates would have saved this womans life, give me a fucking break…

How many people have seen people drive AROUND boom gates in the city, people they are impatient arseholes….! Then they get hit by a train…. “The boom gates failed!!!” No sir, you’re fucking brain failed… Again…

I feel for the family and this womans fiance, but fuck me… To cross a rail crossing while the lights and bells are sounding… wake the fuck up… Unfortunately her family and future husband are going to pay for her own stupidity… There are worse ways to go, but ignoring a working rail crossing is pretty fucking moronic…

And to think that she was a pre-school teacher… I hope she did not lead by example, otherwise the folks of Tyabb WILL need boom gates… Don’t give me that look… That had to be said…

Accused teen looters flown out of Emerald

Youth of Today… Meet part of Chuck

They Say:
“Two teenagers accused of looting flooded homes in central Queensland have been flown out of town for their own safety. The boys, aged 14 and 16, have been charged with multiple property offences in Emerald this week. It is alleged they broke into units on Riverview Street, stealing and vandalising property.

They appeared at a specially convened court hearing last night and were remanded in custody. Police Inspector Lyle Mitchell says the community is angry and the teenagers have been taken out of town as a precaution. “One of my concerns at the moment is making sure that they are safe,” he said.

“The community is angry. There has been some expressions of revenge and actions against them and certain members of the community are after blood, so we will be looking after ensuring their safety.”
We Say:

*Wipes tears of joy*

Thank fuck for that…. Now let’s just hope they’re paraded as the low scum sucking cunts they really are…
