Like an episode of Jackass gone horribly right.

I especially like the Beavis and Butthead reference.

After watching his interview I can't help but think what an idiot that man is...

Very interesting, and funny, story.

I note that no gun was used by the liquor store manager. He only used a a club. Luckily, that's all that was needed in this case. Pulling out a gun for this goofball wouldn't have helped matters any, I don't think.

And that is even better exemplified by the store employee, Craig Miller, a good ole boy, who just went out and tackled the duct tape guy and held him for the police. It must have been obvious that the goofball was not armed--so it was pretty safe to just go hands on. I mean, you could get scraped up or tear your pants leg or something like that. But there wasn't any real danger from the robber. No need for a gun on this one. Kudos to those guys for not using one, if they had one. I gotta suspect the manager had to have one handy...

What a loser that duct tape guy is. But his rap had a kind of a...rhythm to it. Kind of a song beginning. Maybe something like...the Duct Tape Bandit song...



Do I look like a duct tape bandit?

Baby, no I ain't

Baby, do the homework

Baby, do the math

I ain't no duct tape bandit

Baby, you can count on dat

:p

I think Zappa already covered freak bandits with "The Illinois Enema Bandit," a true story, I'm afraid.

This is why we should sterilize some people. People like that shouldn't be allowed to breed. They shouldn't get free health care. A million years ago the weak died off, only the strong survived. But now we protect out village idiots. Hopefully the dinosaurs will come back and take all these morons out.

It'll be microbes, not lizards, that wipe us out.
