  • FTA:

    According to the FBI affidavit, the HSI agents walked up to the Jeep, displayed their badges, identified themselves as law enforcement officers and told Bamigboye that they wanted to talk about his immigration status.

    Bamigboye then allegedly jumped into the Jeep’s back seat and yelled at Frazier to drive away.

    One of the HSI agents got into the front seat of the Jeep in an effort to stop Frazier while Bamigboye tried to push him out and a second agent tried to pull Bamigboye out of the back seat.

    Frazier allegedly put the vehicle in gear and drove off. The HSI agent “was now being involuntarily carried in the Jeep as it drove,” according to the FBI.

    The HSI agent tried to put the Jeep in park, but Frazier continually pushed his hand away, allegedly threatened to crash the car and said that they were taking him to a police station.

    I’m pretty sure he was not detained. And, I’m pretty sure that just overstaying staying a visa is not actually a crime. I’m pretty sure that entering their car without a warrant for arrest like that is a crime, and gives a reasonable person fear of imminent bodily harm or death.

    There’s at least cause for a citizens arrest at that point, and while you’re not supposed to remove the person you’re citizens arresting from the area… driving off to a police station is perhaps the most logically “okay” exception to that.

    whatever comes out of this in the courts is going to be fucking metal, though.




  • Oh yeah. Food was not safe around him.

    In hindsight, that may have been why he liked me.

    He also figured out the trash bin locks. Mooky was a rapscallion, to be sure. Once, he ate a second wedding cake.

    Yes. You read that right. My mom had baked a wedding cake for a friend. He ate that. She baked a second. He ate that. Baked a third, and had it locked up at the friends place.


  • when I was a kid- pretty much a toddler- we had this dog named Mooky. Mooky was a beagle from the pound. (not a rescue, an actual pound.)

    Mooky was a total fucker. He’d escape and go running across the neighborhood and the not-as-yet-developed lots behind our house.

    Mooky also hated people. I was the only person that dog tolerated. (and I was like 4 or so… so, like yeah. I wasn’t gonna train him.)

    Other shenanigans were destroying 3 sets of curtains, escaping at night to go play with the coyotes (and by ‘play’, Mooky liked to pick fights with them.) Another time, mom had bought a pound of expensive, hand crafted, chocolate truffles. Ultra-dark. Yeah. Mooky didn’t die. that dog was indestructible. He did leave a giant diueretic shit behind the couch that was about the size and shape of one of a giant hersey’s kiss. (About as big around as a dinner plate.)

    How indestructable was that incredibly vexxing asshole, you ask? One day I was being babysat by a neighbor. I had gotten into the backyard and came across a rattler (southern CA. lots of undeveloped land.) That dog showed up got bit twice and still didn’t die. He died at a nice, cantankerous age of probably twelve to fifteen.

    Was Mooky a bad dog? just a misunderstood asshole. All I’m gonna say is you never saw him and BatDog in the same place.

    the hollow bronze things with the studs?

    probably not some for of die- divination or otherwise. They just wouldn’t roll well. There’s a few uses for those things that seem likely. Rangefinding (mount it on a staff and peep through the holes, , some sort of symbolic use, or simply just being some sort of decorative weirdness.

    (I mean, really. Think about all the jangly things people have on, like backpacks or purses or keychains. People have always been people.)
