.22 bullet found in Fossgate, York (real headline, NOT The Onion)
The York Press ^ | 8:57am Friday 21st January 2011

Posted on 03/02/2011 7:26:08 AM PST by FreedomPoster

A STARTLED man has told how he found a bullet lying in a York city-centre street.

Tim Stark said he was unloading items into the MOR Music store where he works in Fossgate yesterday morning when he spotted what he believed to be a live .22 bullet gleaming in a puddle.

He said he immediately called police, who came and took it away.

“I have no idea what it was doing there,” he said.

A North Yorkshire Police spokesman said the bullet had been put into safe storage, and CID had confirmed it was not thought to be connected with any incident currently under investigation.

He asked anyone with any information about the bullet and how it came to be in Fossgate to phone the force on 0845 60 60 47.

“He said he immediately called police, who came and took it away.”

Did they send the EOD squad?

I am unbelievably stuned. This POS wimp would go into seizures if I showed him what’s in my car. He would drop stone dead if he saw inside my house.

I hope someone slapped silly everyone involved in that series of decisions.

That’s really sad.

A classic!

Thank you for that!

Having just watched that video, and, considering I am a Tea Party supporter, I am now a completely trained and lethal domestic terrorist!

Will there be a follow-up training video on how to infiltrate behind enemy lines?

...er...never mind. I'm already there...

Several years ago I flew to Australia wearing a jacket that had a .22 live round in one of the pockets. When I got to my hosts house I discovered it. I pulled it out and placed it on their kitchen counter and said “Lookie here what I found in my pocket” - they stared at it in unbelief, like it was something that came from outer space. Funny.

I have a hard time reconciling this story with the fact that Britain was fire-bombed by the Germans during World War II.

Can people actually run that far, that fast, in the opposite direction?

Apparently so...

This is what happens upon the homo and metrosexualization of a society.
