He deserves the death penalty if he can get any meal he wants and he picks KFC.

I, of course, would want a burrito supreme from Taco Bell, before I confess to anything serious.

I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often. Saves everyone involved time, money and emotional stress.

You want to sing like a canary for a 8 piece of Popeye's and some cajun mashed potatoes? Done and done, my friend.

FTFA: Tremayne Durham was dreaming of buckets of fried chicken.

This could be epic...

 
Scruffinator 2008-07-27 01:06:45 AM  
FTA: "There's a significant possibility he'd not be convicted of what he did, which was aggravated murder," said Frink, noting Durham might have been convicted of a lesser charge or even acquitted.

Excuse me, I must go weep for humanity now.

Do they still fry with trans-fat? It could be a death sentence in itself.

The article says the guy wanted an ice cream truck, bu then changed his mind. Then he killed people because he couldn't get a refund.

And they want to possibly let this guy out in 30 years?!

When I was tossed in jail for a night (drunk tank), I was served lunch. Lunch that day was Philly cheesesteak, with peppers, onions, and the proper cheez-wiz style cheese. Came with a side of veggies. And let me tell you, that cheesesteak was absofrigginlutely delicious. Guards actually gave me a second serving, that was just as delicious as the first.

To date, that cheesesteak goes down as one of the finest I've eaten.

From some 80's detective show. Stunt artist was buried alive in coffin. Doctor Guy opens coffin later and ,,Surprise. The guy inside is dead. Now how did that happen? Gun in doctor bag and pillow too. Guy in coffin had one feather on him and gun powder. Amateur sleuths say "How did he die????"

KFC and Popeye's.

Not a bad combo--KFC Original Recipe and Popeye's mashed and gravy.

Too bad all cases couldn't be resolved with fried chicken.

Silencers? In your pillows?

It's more likely than you think.

Keep that in mind next time you think about offing the wife without her nagging you to death first.

Hey, the guy got KFC AND Popeye's.

*turn on offense mechanisms*
Hopefully they got him Popeye's chicken from the franchise in Aurora... not from one on MLK Blvd.

White rednecks can't cook chicken as well as urban African Americans. This guy's name is Tremayne... he probably can spot these things.

Silencers don't actually make gunshots silent; they muffle the sound so that it's less loud and less recognizable as a gunshot. So yes, a pillow would work if you sort of "wrap" the pillow around the gun barrel, and then shoot through it.

Next time you go0 shooting try placing various houshold items around the muzzle of your gun and see what works. A pillow, an empty 2 litre coke bottle, a bottle of isopropyl alcohol...try everything.

Shennanigans!!! My Grandma (typical white person) could scald a yardbird that would put the colonel to shame. I used to think there was no finer chicken in the world until 1979. My new girlfriend ('nuther typical white person) invited me to her home for dinner. It was even better than Grandma's. Of course I lied to Grandma and told her that hers was still the best.

None of those would work at all as a suppressor. A suppressor works by containing gasses escaping from the barrel. A pillow would not contain anything, a bottle would make it even louder due to the reverberation and the entire bottom of the bottle getting blown out when the bullet hits it.

It must be cool to think you know something cannot work even though you've never tried it.

"Durham might have been convicted of a lesser charge or even acquitted."

With statements like this, and the fact that 25% of the inmates on who have been acquitted due to re-examination of dna evidence had originally plead guilty, tends to make me a little legally jaded nowadays.

The old "beyond a shadow of a doubt" clause was not put in to keep guilty people out of jail, it was put in to keep incompetent officers from pinning things on to the first person they could find that they could make charges stick to.

I certainly hope you haven't tried it, since manufacturing a suppressor without a manufacturing license is illegal, but if you think I'm wrong, feel free to explain the physics that would make an empty coke bottle function as a suppressor.

redbaron303, that picture makes me think of the opening credits of "A Hard Days Night", where the Beatles are getting chased by an excited mob. Only instead of the Beatles, it's a white dude with a bucket of chicken.
