I think if I were Mrs. Cooke, I'd be out there shredding the flowers as fast as they were put down.
I read the news today oh boy! Page 540

Should that be a watertight alibi? What if we're talking about a woman who was raped? Should the police hold the caller's integrity equal to the alleged criminal's in every case? Think about it.
>_<
That doesn't even make sense.
I don't think US police come to a report of a fatal shooting/stabbing, hear the guy say 'he broke in so I had to kill him', say 'fair enough mate', high five him and then wander back to the station, like you seem to be suggesting. I'm sure they do SOME looking into things.
And if they don't, they're insane.

Of course they investigate, but when the shooter is a 70-year-old woman with no criminal record and the corpse is a 22-year-old gang member with a lengthy criminal history and neck tattoos, it doesn't take Sherlock Holmes to figure out what happened.
Most importantly, the shooter is the victim of the crime and will be treated with courtesy and compassion. She wouldn't be handcuffed, taken to the station for interrogation and charged with murder. It doesn't matter if the charges are dropped at a later time; it is a traumatic and serious thing to do to someone who was only protecting herself and just wouldn't be allowed to happen here.

That's all right then! I was starting to wonder.
Italian elderly couple want to get their adult son who refuses to move out evicted.
He does sound like a pillock.

So lads, if you want to know if a girl is going to put out, count the toes.
Everything you know is WRONG: Offical.
Hang on a mo they're firing particles faster than the speed of light vaguely in the direction of Italy.
They could have your eye out!
WTF is wrong with some people?

I'm surprised that baseball bats and milk bottles are readily available in your country.
Not baseball gloves, not baseball balls, not those funny looking baseball pants.
But bats lots of baseball bats.
I wonder why that is?

I'll bet you can find lots of caps, too. Especially ones from the Yankees and Dodgers, as they are favored by gang members. In black, of course.
Milk bottles?
