Re: WTF in America
Mine was comparatively benign; some lady's luggage fell on her while she was dragging it out of the overhead compartment and she sued the airline. Slow day in Fla.

Did not really work for my day. Beyond the obvious, Florida man charged with sending letter bombs last year. 9/11.

Re: WTF in America
You don't need "florida man" to find craziness in Florida.
I Googled "Florida news" a few minutes ago, and the first Florida story on the first listed link, yielded the following:
"A 20-year-old convicted of raping his neighbor and then offering to do work around her house to make it up to her is being sent to prison for 50 years.
Jurors in West Palm Beach found Timothy Walding guilty of sexual battery, false imprisonment and armed burglary in October. On Monday a judge sentenced him to a mandatory minimum sentence of 50 years.Prosecutors say Walding broke into his 35-year-old neighbor's house in Oct. 2017, and sexually assaulted her for 90 minutes. She said she was tied up and threatened with a knife.
The SunSentinel reports he offered to do landscaping or fix something around the house, which she declined. Prosecutors say he asked her not to tell what happened and they shook hands. When he left she called 911.

Re: WTF in America
I don't know if I can continue reading this thread.
My already low opinion of humanity is approaching zero.
In saying that, did the pigeon survive?
