So WERE they being fed to the animals there? Was the psychic right?

It's always true on T.V.

Move to Belize they said. Great for retirement they said. The only English language Central American country they said.

What are the odds that the psychic is the one responsible for the missing kids?

Gotta love superstition.


It's ok if god told you to do it though.

Bit by bit, their hope turned into reality. They built a two-story octagonal house that rested on stilts and reached 30 feet into the air. They constructed two smaller cottages to house researchers and students. They dug out two acres of canals for the crocodiles. They acquired two boats.

And by 'boats' they mean 'children to feed the crocodiles'...

Two missing kids in the farking jungle? You've got to be kidding me.

1. No mention of whether or not the psychic has been or will be arrested for this? That's a pretty clear incitement to violence.

2. This couple is perhaps foolishly stubborn about staying and continuing their work despite direct knowledge that the mob intended to murder them. I'm predicting a followup article about a couple of dead American conservationists in Belize.

There is so much 3rd world backwoods pretend police FAIL in that story it is mind boggling.

Well they already went to the trouble of kidnapping locals to feed to the crocodiles, you think they're quitting after that?

The Roses got more calls from friends Saturday, again telling them that villagers with shotguns and machetes were on their way to the sanctuary. The caretaker was afraid to go there, Cherie Rose said, so they called police that night. The police said they couldn't go on the property because the Roses' two mixed-breed dogs were barking and would not allow them to enter, Cherie Rose recounted.


"Yeah, uh, we'd love to save your livelihood from beind destroyed, but these two dogs are, like, REALLY freaking Lou out. So uh."

I would happily feed the psychic and the mob to the animals now.

Anyone who pretends they have knowledge or authority from supernatural sources, psychic, pastor or pope, should be made a pariah.
 
2010-09-08 05:05:53 PM
My suggestion; tie up the psychic and punch him/her in the taint rhythmically to the tune of "Roll Out the Barrel".

I'm going with close relative.

That made me laugh so hard I almost ruined my keyboard! Also, and is it wrong that I now want to find a bum and/or hobo who would be willing to oblidge me on that for some spare change?

Oh no, those poor rich white Americans. The mean savages burned down the giant personal amusement park they built in the jungle. However will they go on?

/The psychic was probably right, they sound like assholes

Fubegra: And yet, credulous people here think the world is going to end in 2012 because the Mayans said so.

The mayans didn't even say so, their calendar just happened to end there. Do people really believe that if the earth weren't going to end in 2012 that the Mayans would have made their calender an additional 5 billion years longer to account for the death of the Sun?

/Maybe it's just a farking rock, and making a calendar out of rock is hard, so you want to quit after a while

Are you saying there is something wrong with being inside another American? That is pretty close minded of you.
 
2010-09-08 05:13:18 PM
And here they've been telling us that only Americans have stupid, backwards, and often superstitious ideas. Man, what will CNN do now? This obviously shows someone OTHER than Americans as morons. Oh that's it... they'll spend the next 3 weeks mentioning the indigenous people's rich cultural heritage and how Americans shouldn't have been there in the first place...

Yeah, those assholes. Going around saving endangered species. I hate those people. How dare they have the means and drive to do something they're passionate about!

I'm not questioning if they can build a crocodile mosque in the sacred jungles of Belize, but should they? American Crocodile COnservationsists, please refudiate.
