Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Story would've been a lot better if it was an armed coup attempt.

Y'know, they could invite him and his top guys to the final competition or something, and then when it comes time for the bikini contest they could all come out with AKs.

Could the Nicaraguan forces raise arms to stop them? I wonder... anyone who gets themselves into that mess kinda deserves it, it's almost too amusing to stop.

I assume they would be fighting against Gaddafi's Amazonian Guard?

Are they still alive?

Better than using a movie to lure in the bad guys. Hear me, Inglorious Basterds?
