Now, I would have expected that from a U.S.er, 'cause I was sarcasticking us, but I'm glad you saw through my bullshit to the joke underneath.

...And you're too right, Elf.

Send Rosie O over there and they'll run like roaches in a light.

Ok, now this is why I want to run away and hide in the mountains.
This tragedy happened about 2 miles south of where I live.
The perp actually had an AK-47 automatic rifle.
There seems to be an outbreak of evil here.
Two officers have died because of crazy a**holes with guns and another is left struggling for survival with a bullet in his head.
Then there are the other 3 wounded today.
It's insanity!

Gunman Kills Fla. Cop After Traffic Stop

September 13, 2007 2 hours ago

CUTLER BAY, Fla. - A gunman opened fire on four Miami-Dade County police officers during a traffic stop Thursday, killing one and injuring the other three before fleeing and triggering a manhunt across South Florida.

The officers were conducting burglary surveillance when they stopped the man because he was driving a car erratically, police spokeswoman Linda O'Brien said. The man opened fire with a high-powered weapon without warning and fled. It was not immediately clear whether the officers returned fire.

TV footage showed several officers briefly surrounding a house, guns drawn, before moving on. Others swept through a grassy area on foot and picked through a garbage truck.
Several schools were locked down during the search in Cutler Bay, in suburban Miami.Authorities were looking for
Shawn Sherwin Labeet, 25, who may have been wearing a bulletproof vest. Labeet's girlfriend had earlier given officers the name of another man, Alvarez said. Investigators wasted several hours looking for him before he came forward hundreds of miles away in Jacksonville, hearing that he was wanted. He was not involved in the shooting.

"I'm sure she'll be facing some charges," Alvarez said of Labeet's girlfriend.

Alvarez identified the dead officer as Jose Somohano, 37, a married father of two. Another officer, Jody Wright, 31, underwent several hours of surgery to repair a severely injured leg. The other two officers were treated and released.

Two other officers were shot separately last month in neighboring Broward County. One was killed, the other badly injured.http://www.comcast.net/news/index.jsp?c ... midadecops

Gordon Bennett, Wendy! Be careful, girl.
I wonder why folks want to kill each other in such beautiful surroundings. It must seem a bit sureal.

Here's the end of the story, at least they got him.
I think the heat affects brains and they boil crazy.

Suspect in Fla. Police Shooting Killed
By DAVID FISCHER, Associated Press Writer
6 hours ago

CUTLER BAY, Fla. - A gunman opened fire on four Miami-Dade County police officers during a traffic stop Thursday, killing one and injuring the other three. Police killed the suspect hours later, authorities said.

Dozens of officers from police departments across South Florida had been searching for 12 hours for the suspect, who investigators identified as Shawn Sherwin Labeet, 25. Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Alvarez said Labeet was found shortly before midnight Thursday in a Pembroke Pines apartment complex about 30 miles north of the initial shooting scene.

"There was an exchange of gunfire and the subject was shot and killed," Alvarez said.

He said the family of the dead officer was informed of Labeet's death.

"They asked us for one thing," Alvarez said. "They asked us to catch the subject. Well, I'm happy to report that shortly before midnight, we found the subject."

Alvarez identified the dead officer as Jose Somohano, 37, a married father of two. Another officer, Jody Wright, 31, underwent several hours of surgery to repair her severely injured leg. The other two officers were treated and released.

The officers were conducting burglary surveillance in the Cutler Bay area of southern Miami-Dade County when they stopped the man because he was driving a car erratically, police spokeswoman Linda O'Brien said. The man opened fire with a high-powered weapon without warning and fled. It was not immediately clear whether the officers returned fire.

Labeet, who may have been wearing a bulletproof vest, fled in his car, which was found abandoned 5 miles away, officials said. An AK-47 assault rifle was found inside, Alvarez said. It wasn't immediately known if it was the weapon used in the shooting.

Labeet's girlfriend had earlier given officers the name of another man, Alvarez said. Investigators wasted several hours looking for him before he came forward hundreds of miles away in Jacksonville, hearing that he was wanted. He was not involved in the shooting.

"I'm sure she'll be facing some charges," Alvarez said of Labeet's girlfriend.

The government of Communist China, which claims control of Tibet despite the region's vigorous culture of independence, announced in August that it would henceforth require Tibet's "Living Buddhas" (special clergy believed to be continually reincarnated) to get permission from Communist china's religious affairs officials before submitting their souls to be embodied in the future.The government acted, it said, because the reincarnation process needed to be managed better.

Well don'tcha know now the government ALWAYS handles things better!

Now what will happen if they don't get permission before submitting their souls. Arrest the souls and throw them in a Chinese Prison?

Hmmmm....I wonder what kind of container the buddha will use. Maybe something like a bowl?

A soup pot perhaps?

An example of what happens when church and state mingle.
Too many cooks confusing the soup making process.
