[size=20]10 Weirdest Stories Involving A Turkey [/size]

1. Cop opens fire on turkey that peed on his car

Detective Andy Jackson of the Maury County Sheriff’s Office in Tennessee must have been having a bad day when a turkey decided to take a leak on his squad car. He opened fire with a service pistol to scare the bird off. However an anonymous tip to the sheriff’s department earned him an investigation and a reprimand.

2. People fight each other with turkeys in supermarket fight

Shopping for the holidays may be hell but at least it prepares you for the inevitable fight when your entire family decides to stand together in the same room. The people inside a Madison, Wisconsin supermarket must have barbarians for relatives because two groups of women got into a massive food fight over money that started when one sprayed the other with pepper spray and ended with them trying to assault each other with frozen turkeys.

3. Inmate caught eating a state fair turkey leg on his Facebook page

A Mississippi jail got in hot water after an inmate at the Hinds County jail posted a picture of him enjoying a delicious turkey leg, despite the fact that he was still in jail. The case is still under investigation but it appears that an employee of the jail provided the inmate with the turkey leg. The inmate should consider himself lucky considering how most contraband is smuggled into prisons these days.

4. Guy tried to heat his home with a turkey fryer

The holidays aren’t as happy for some homes, especially those that can’t afford to keep the heat on during the coldest time of the year. A man in Lebanon, Pennsylvania, however, got the bright idea to heat his home using a turkey fryer. Police originally went to the man’s home after someone called to complain that he smashed up their car with a pipe and found a bunch of stolen propane tanks in his backyard. That’s when they discovered the turkey fryer running at full blast next to a stockpile of combustible materials. He’s lucky the turkey wasn’t the only thing fried that year.

5. Aggressive turkey holds family hostage for an hour

Turkeys might seem like docile creatures but they can become quite ornery sometimes. You would be too if you realized you were about to become a main course. A family in Corinne, Utah had been dealing with a rather angry turkey for several weeks before it finally snapped. A neighbor’s pet turkey started attacking their dog causing lacerations on its face. Eventually it went after the rest of the family, trapping them in their home. They called the police who shot the turkey when it tried to attack one of the responding officers. That’s one badass turkey.

6. Turkey Stalks Detroit Woman

Turkeys can also be downright bastards sometimes. Take the case of a Michigan woman who had to take a different route during her daily commute because she was repeatedly stalked by a wild turkey that believes its protecting territory on her property. The turkey became so irate and even violent that she had to change her commute. The turkey eventually figured out her new route and continued to stalk and chase her.

7. Guy Gets Stabbed Over Leftover Turkey

The best part of Thanksgiving is all those delicious leftovers. So it’s understandable how a fight could start if someone ate all the leftover turkey. What’s not understandable is why a guy in Indiana would stab his mom’s boyfriend for eating his Thanksgiving leftovers unless the thought was that he could cut him open so he could get his leftovers back.

8. PETA tried to erect a turkey memorial in Utah

We’re all for erecting a statue of a turkey if it’s to celebrate the world’s most delicious bird. Considering the fact that PETA tried to erect it, we’re pretty sure that’s not the case. Back in May, the animal rights group wanted to erect a memorial at the site of a truck accident in Salt Lake City where 100s of turkeys in the truck died as a result of the crash. The proposed memorial completely ignored the fact that a person actually died in the same accident.

9. Woman assaulted with turkey neck

Turkeys are amazing. Not only do they make a delicious meal that can last for days but parts of them also make for handy weapons. A man in Florida (where else?) earned himself battery charges for using a turkey neck in a fight with his wife over their joint checkbook. He struck her in the neck (the woman’s neck, not the turkey’s) with it and then threw it at her when she tried to fight back.

10. Carjacker hit with frozen turkey

Thanksgiving isn’t just a day for self-reflection. It should also be a time of giving and celebrating humanity. Some people in North Carolina found the ultimate way to pay tribute to their fellow man by using a frozen turkey to stop a robber and a carjacker. A man stole money from the register of a convenience store and tried to take a woman’s car while she was loading groceries in her car. Some people walking out of the grocery store saw the man beating the woman and trying to take her keys so they walked up and started beating him with a frozen turkey. Police eventually found him with a “serious head wound.”

 
This was a cool find. Apparently Thanksgiving goes beyond just eating and complaining. :smile: Which story got your attention the most?

[size=20]Potato Lady Has Potato Growing inside Her [/size]

9 times out of 10, you don’t want something growing inside you. Really, babies are probably the only thing you want and that only affects half the population. So when a woman in Colombia went to the hospital with abdominal pain and a nurse discovered roots growing out of her. Out of where? Oh, you know where.

Turns out this lady was a fan of folk wisdom and/or lazy contraceptives. Why use condoms or the pill when potatoes literally grow right out of the ground and are potatoes? The woman readily admitted to having inserted the potato into her secret garden in an effort to prevent pregnancy, either as a result of a potato’s awesome ability to smack down sperm, or because it was just a big potato blocking a somewhat smaller hole. She did this without anticipating a potato’s ability to grow roots in any dark, humid environment, however. You know how when you leave a potato in the cupboard too long, it starts looking like its growing tentacles? Yeah, you imagine that in this scenario.

The woman’s mother gave her the helpful potato advice, proving that some kids in the world will still believe any stupid thing so long as their mom says it. Sadly mom never gave her a time frame so two weeks later the woman couldn’t endure the discomfort any longer and wound up in the ER with half the makings for hash in her drawers.

Lucky for the woman, surgery was needed and probably just some tongs and a whisk were all that was required to alleviate the issue. Even better, the potato caused no permanent damage, because imagine having to go through life with a permanently wounded or scarred crotch as a result of a misplaced potato.

If this sounds insane to you, please remember that once upon a time (the 1920’s), it was recommended, here in America, that women could clean themselves out with Lysol if they wanted to prevent pregnancy. Lysol. Lysol was not a different product back in the day, either. There’s no evidence any woman ever tried this more than once, but it was still a thing the company itself tried to make people do via advertisements in magazines.

Even in America today, education about pregnancy prevention is pretty sketchy. According to one study, 18% of men think sex standing up can prevent pregnancy and 24% of Americans think using two condoms will make it more effective than using one. Neither one of those things are true, by the way.

On the upside, even potatoes have come a long way from ancient pregnancy prevention techniques. Back in the day in Egypt a nice paste of crocodile poop was a thing people would use as a contraceptive, possibly due to the fact no one would have sex with anyone whose genitals were smeared with crocodile poop.

[size=20]Star Of “Power Rangers Samurai” Charged With Killing Roommate With A Sword [/size]

Ricardo Medina Jr. is an actor best known for portraying the Red Ranger starting in 2002 on the children’s show Power Rangers Wild Force and later as the sword wielding Dekker on Power Rangers Samurai.

Apparently the regular old Power Rangers weren’t cutting it anymore and needed to be upgraded to samurais, because why not, the kids already have ADD from watching these shows.

The samurai program ended in 2012, but it seems Red Ranger Ricardo liked to take his props home with him.

Sadly, this time Ricardo Medina Jr. didn’t use his swords to fight for what’s right, but to murder his roommate.

He was fighting for truth, justice… and the desire to see those god damn dishes piled up in the sink washed by the end of the week!

Actually authorities aren’t sure yet what prompted the argument between Medina and his roommate, Joshua Sutter.

The Los Angeles County Sherriff’s office says that on Saturday the Ex-Power Ranger retreated to his own bedroom with his girlfriend.

That’s when the victim, Sutter forced his way into the room, prompting Medina to grab his sword he kept by the door, and stab Sutter through the stomach.

Medina called 911 himself and waited for the police to arrive who arrested him for murder after Sutter was pronounced dead at the hospital. His bail is set for one million dollars.

Wow, mighty morphin’ going on there… What a shame.

 

UPDATE:
[size=20]LA County Holds Off on Charging Power Rangers’ Medina in Fatal Stabbing[/size]

Los Angeles County district attorney spokesperson Ricardo Santiago said that prosecutors asked the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department for “further investigation” before they decide whether to charge Medina for the incident.

Five days, did they wind up charging him?

There doesn’t appear to be any further updates yet.

[size=20]Ex-Power Rangers Star Cleared In Fatal Stabbing[/size]
Prosecutors on Tuesday declined to file charges against the 36-year-old actor, who fatally stabbed his friend with a sword during an argument at their Southern California home.

Joshua Sutter, 36, was pronounced dead at hospital on Saturday.

Police said Mr. Sutter was stabbed in the abdomen after forcing his way into Medina’s bedroom, where the actor had gone with his girlfriend.

Medina called 911 and remained at the scene until first responders arrived. Deputies then took the actor into custody.

The Los Angeles County district attorney’s office said on Tuesday that prosecutors asked for further investigation regarding Mr. Sutter’s death.

On Monday, Medina’s agent, Gar Lester, called Medina a “sweet soul” who must have been acting in self-defense.

Medina portrayed the Red Ranger on Power Rangers Wild Force in 2002 and later played Deker on Power Rangers Samurai.

Thanks for posting this Slow.

Wow Medina got lucky. :open_mouth: A life was taken and yet…self-defense.
