Kidnapped Louisiana girls wrestle car away from evil man

From NY Post

Two teen girls abducted at gunpoint in Louisiana were able to fight off their attacker by causing a car crash.

The unidentified girls, ages 14 and 15, were walking back from a Dollar General store in Springfield when a man in an SUV approached them Friday evening, news station WBRZ reported.

The man — whom cops later identified as 39-year-old Albert Lavigne — allegedly forced them at gunpoint into the vehicle, where a struggle ensued as he drove away, the outlet reported.

The teens kept grabbing the steering wheel, eventually causing the car to crash a few miles away in Tangipahoa, the outlet reported.

“We did fight for the wheel for a while and I finally won and jerked it,” the 14-year-old girl told the news station.

“We did hit two cars in the process and me and my friend walked out, running for help and these two guys tackled the kidnapper.”

Springfield is not far from Baton Rouge, so you know there are at least a few Cajuns in the area. Word to bad people: Don’t mess with Cajun girls.

Not even the government would torture us with that

Daylight Savings Time went into effect Sunday, giving American voters an extra hour to rest up before Election Day. It's the first time I can remember nobody looking forward to it. Turning back the clocks and getting an extra hour of 2020 is like getting a bonus track on a Yoko Ono album. – Argus Hamilton at Jewish World Review.

 

 

 

  

Roman coin auction hammers previous price record

Surprisingly absolutely no sentient being whatsoever, the previously unknown EID MAR aureus that went up for auction October 29th stabbed its pre-sale estimate of £500,000 ($644,150) to a bloody death, selling for £3.24 million ($4.2 million), including buyer’s premium. hammer price was £2.7 million ($3.5 million).

It has set a new world record as the most expensive ancient coin ever sold at auction. The previous record-holder was a Greek gold stater of Pantikapaion struck between 350 and 300 B.C. that sold in 2012 for $3.25 million. It is famous for the extremely portrait of a satyr on the obverse whose fine detail and expressiveness rank it as one of the greatest masterpieces of die engraving.

If you can’t be a running dog of capitalist imperialism …

 … you can at least be a racist.

 Labeling yourself with a Maoist Red China Communist term would not work, since most college students, and professors for that matter, have no idea what a running dog of capitalist imperialism is. So, some Northwestern University professors admitted to being racists.

Truth

 

There is an election tomorrow

 Vote, if you have not already done so. Then, pray President Trump and Vice President Pence are returned for another four years. An overwhelming win by Trump would be nice, but not absolutely necessary. Some web sites and blogs predict riots in the streets and the usual burning and destroying. Some predict even worse events. I do not think those will occur. Some disturbance, maybe, in cities where rioters can get away with ignoring laws on violence and personal property. Most of the web sites and blogs predicting riots and etc. in truth hope violence happens. I do not.
