Friggin Morrocans - Italy is overrun with these jerks. They're like our Mexicans, but generally more violent and not as productive. Anyway, I'm sure he'll have a good time in Prison after killing 8 locals.:santa_ok: http://www.foxnews.com/world/2010/12/05/car-plows-group-cyclists-italy-dead/ Car plows into group of cyclists in Italy, 8 dead ROME – A speeding car plowed head-on into a group of cyclists in southern Italy on Sunday morning, killing eight of them, officials said. The driver had been smoking marijuana, police said. Bent, mangled bikes were strewn about the scene, and the sheet-draped corpses dotted the two-lane road near Lamezia Terme, in the Calabrian "toe" of boot-shaped Italy where the accident occurred. In addition to the eight cyclists killed, four people were injured: two cyclists and the driver and a young boy in the car with him, said Maria Dolores Rucci, commander of the road police in nearby Catanzaro. The ANSA news agency said the driver, who was only slightly injured, was placed under arrest on charges of multiple homicide. A police spokesman who declined to give his name said the man, a Moroccan national, had tested positive for marijuana.
I hear this bicycle shit about share the road all the time. There is plenty of room for a car and a bicycle side by side in the same lane. Had them bikes been single file and at the edge of the road allowing room for a car, there would have been room for the oncoming car to pass and get back over with no accident. I wonder how many people right now would test positive for marijuana use? Its stays in your body about 6 weeks so he might not have even smoked any dope right before driving. I think bikes should have the same rights as cars on the road when they start paying for and displaying a state license plate, paying for mandatory insurance, and wearing a DOT approved helmet, and paying road tax(included in the fuel price in USA) just like other 2 wheeled vehicles on the road.
I don't know but their food is fucking nasty as hell. I paid big money for a meal at a restaurant that had gotten rave reviews, the Marrakesh. It was the worst food I have ever tasted. I had a group with me and I was so relieved when one lady spoke and said "this stuff is so gross" and everyone agreed. It literally tasted like you had thrown up in your mouth. Some had chicken, some lamb, and some goat and it all tasted like that. We were masochistic enough to pass some around. Fucking dog shit.
I've always loved Moroccan food. Their use of spices just appeals to my palat. Its the people I have a problem with. But that's because they're Moslem.
I tried a Turkish restaurant a couple of weeks ago. It was pretty good - I had lamb shikebob + rice (soft puffy rice too). I hope the place doesn't go under like that Indian restaurant down the road. Augusta has enough chain restaurants + Chinese buffets.
Lets see... 13,846 drunk driving related fatalities in the US in 2008. All the proof I needed that Americans are scum.
The article says he tested positive, not that he was under the influence. And even if he was stoned, it doesn't really endorse or condemn prohibition. You don't blame alcohol when a drunk driver kills someone. This is no different. It's irresponsible people that are the problem.
Speaking of African food, my friends and I went to an Ethiopian restaurant a couple of years ago, just to try it out. We went in, ordered, and waited for our food to arrive. And waited. And waited. And waited some more. By this time, we were starving, and I made a comment on this is what it must be like in Ethiopia, where there is no food. Another friend said maybe not eating IS the Ethiopian food, and we should just get the bill.
Reply to Scorponocks story: the twelve year old waiters were busy cleaning their AK-47 for the next coup in their country - they are reservists. Also, they were teaching their sons how to clean weapons, so this added to the task.
