Police in North Carolina found a real gun disguised as a Nerf toy while conducting a drug raid in Catawba County, north of Charlotte, this week. The Glock 19 pistol, along with a 50-round drum magazine, had been painted blue and orange and labeled with the Nerf logo to look like a toy, the Catawba County Sheriff's Office said in a news release on Facebook. The firearm was among 20 guns -- pistols, rifles and shotguns -- that investigators found during the home search Wednesday, along with cocaine, psilocybin mushrooms and marijuana. Police also seized about $2,300 in cash. "Firearms of this type, while not illegal to possess, are concerning to law enforcement," the release said. "Firearms, in general, are commonly seized in conjunction with searches where felony amounts of narcotics are present." Damien Alonzo Burch, 35, of Catawba was arrested and charged with felonious possession of cocaine, felonious possession of mushrooms and misdemeanor possession of marijuana, the release...

On the Nav bar we updated links to our social media accounts. The guys who run the reddit kicked AEdiot off the Sub, and invited me to mod. I added @GloriousReader as mod. I updated the cosmetic layout of the reddit and added links. Which is pretty much the only thing I aim to do. Although it says there are five other mods on the reddit, those are mostly dead accounts. If any current mod/admin/crat wants perms on the reddit, PM me your username.

In July 2020, a mother of a Victory Vipers cheerleader in Bucks County, PA approached police with a disturbing report: Someone was harassing her teenage daughter and sending doctored images of the underage girl to make it appear as if she was naked, vaping, and drinking. Shortly after, two more families came forward with similar stories: Their daughters, all members of the same cheerleading squad, were being targeted by an unknown person with doctored photos and videos. But it was the eventual suspect that caused concern and confusion among the three girls' families. On March 4, authorities arrested who they believe to be the person behind the coordinated harassment campaign. Raffaela Spone, 50, allegedly harassed members of her own daughter's cheerleading squad for months. Spone, who now faces three misdemeanor counts of cyber harassment of a child, among other related offenses, allegedly began targeting the girls after they had a reported "falling out" with her daughter. In...

It probably sounds very brutal. But some must be sacrificed in the war against the corona. That's the way it is in all wars. This time it may well be me. In Norway, one health worker died of a cerebral haemorrhage and three health workers were admitted with a blood clot after receiving the vaccine. We and several European countries have now taken a break from vaccination with AstraZeneca on the basis of similar cases. Let me say the obvious first. It is terribly sad that health workers have become seriously ill. Even though we have stopped clapping for them on our balconies, I think we all have deep respect for this group of people, who are some of the front fighters in the war against the corona. That is precisely why they received the vaccine so early. And of course we will do everything we can to find out if there is a connection between the cases and the vaccine. Because we actually do not know yet. Perhaps these are "unfortunate individuals" , which Steinar Madsen in the...

In this thread make suggestions for changes to the site (forum and wiki) that we can implement.

An escaped prisoner in Birmingham, England has been recaptured after he came out of hiding to buy Call of Duty. The West Midlands Police uploaded bodycam footage of the Jan. 13 arrest on YouTube on March 4, where it has since been viewed over 97,000 times. Officers at the Birmingham city center claimed they became suspicious of two men who immediately started walking in the opposite direction after spotting the police. An officer then stopped the pair and asked for their identification, before being kicked by one of the men. The attacker, Clint Butler, was eventually apprehended with the help of nearby security guards. Butler was serving a 17-year sentence for multiple crimes including robbery and firearms-related charges, as reported by Sky News. He broke out of HM Prison Spring Hill in Edgcott, England, in Nov. 2020 and has been wanted ever since. And what was compelling enough for Butler to risk venturing out into public? Video games, of course. “I’ve come to get the new...
