A Bunch Of Protestors Beating Cops With Pipes


The police didn’t stand a chance. I’m surprised no guns were involved. Maybe guns are just more of a western thing.


Eur-coli Outbreak

E. coli outbreak leaves 16 dead in Germany

Mad people are getting sick all over Europe from an E. coli outbreak. The most fatal cases have been reported in Germany. Germany’s blaming Spain and their cucumber harvest for their germs, pun intended.

I remember when I was younger and Jack in The Box got blamed for a huge E. coli outbreak here in America. That was about the beginning of the end for Jack in The Box in the mid nineties. Jack in The Box has since bounced back and is killing people the normal way again.

This will be a huge loss for Spain’s agriculture profits this year, and who knows how long this outbreak will last. I hope they figure out exactly where the origins of the particularly deadly strain is coming from, because we don’t want that shit over here!


Greece Needs Elbow Grease

Greece is broke. They got a €327B debt! That’s around $520 billion dollars, and it ain’t looking like they’ll pay that off no time soon. Instead of just tapping out and filing bankruptcy, they askin’ to borrow more cash, €65B on top of the €110B they just got! Get a job Greece!

Greece went wrong when they decided to participate in this capitalistic game, and then forgot to privatize their damn infrastructure. Now it’s looking like a steep uphill battle to switch the game plan, and the European nations with the most paper are ready to be stingy. Sucks doesn’t it?

How does this affect us though? Well, if the Euro Zone shells out the paper, chances are they’ll keep having to, sending the euro into a downward spiral. That means the dollar will be winning again, but the catch is, we ain’t really got no money fool!

Greece should just call it quits, privatize their energy, financial, and construction sectors, and let their citizens own a piece of the pie. All these bailouts and loans floating around the world’s financial markets recently are all grounds for more trouble.

And while we’re shitting on Greece’s €327B shenanigans, let’s not forget we’re boasting a $14.3 trillion dollar debt in our bank statement. What is we gon’ do!?
