Why do they even want Transnistria?

 

[Lord Brutus]

Because they can?

Edit: Oh wait.  Apparently the majority of the population of Transnistria are Russian citizens.

I'm sure the troops there are thrilled with the president's announcement - no doubt increasing the morale of the enemy, as they just 'sit tight'.

Four officials at the State and Defense Departments and the CIA said on Friday they were surprised
by Trump’s Syria remarks, which one senior intelligence official said “appeared to be completely off the cuff.”

Exactly. The only reason I can find for Transnistria being part of Moldavia in the first place is that Romania occupied it in 1941.
Them holding on to it just invites border conflict with Russia.

The April fools' news pranks are getting a bit too silly.

After Couch was filmed drinking alcohol at a party in 2015 - a violation of the terms of his probation - he and his mother fled to Mexico.
They were found in the resort town of Puerto Vallarta, and flown back to the US where the teenager was ordered to jail for 720 days.

His mother, Tonya Couch, was charged with hindering apprehension of a known felon and money laundering, but was released after posting bond.
Last week the 50-year-old failed a court-ordered drug test and was arrested.

She was booked into the same jail as her son, only days before he was released.

They should make a Hollywood comedy out of this.

Ugh. "Too rich to know better" must be one of the worst defense cases ever made, and apparently it worked. **** this guy.

Shooting at Youtube HQ, 3 people wounded, shooter died of self inflicted wound. The shooter was female, so that's mildly interesting.

[AreJohn]

Spicy.

 

[Age of Empires ¶ Densetsu]

A woman?

 

[Cpt. Nemo]

I think that's what they're called, yes.

 

[Dystopian]

No way!

 

[Temuzu]

Ah yes, Nasim "Hit me with the ban, you'll get the thunder from Tehran" Aghdam, also known as Nasim "Don't Give" Aghdam. This is shaping up to be an interesting one indeed, apparently Nasim was a woman [male], which would be the first time I've heard of a trans mass shooter. That's just a rumor for the time being though, and all of her online presence is getting scrubbed at the moment.

 

[Captured Joe]

Can you really call her a mass shooter if she only managed to wound four people though?

 

[Anarion]

Can you really call her a mass shooter if she only managed to wound four people though?

Hang on.

*looks at picture, looks at colour chart*

Yes.

 

[K-64]

I mean, considering the FBI's definition of a mass shooting is 4 or more people killed or injured, not including the shooter...

 

[Beny]

So is it an attempted mass shooting? Or good old fashioned multiple attempted murder?

 

[Age of Empires ¶ Densetsu]

She was just vlogging and the gun "went off".

 

[Bluehawk]

She's definitely going to get demonetized.
