If you want to assess the effectiveness of the FBI in police work I suggest
you look into their accountability in the ongoing plague of bankrobbery, and
top, it off with a look at the scandals in their forensic labs, perhaps
followed by a swig of their joke of a fingerprint system.


Yes. Phillip Jenkins, who's maybe the leading authority on serial
killers in the US, pointed out that no serial killer has ever been
caught by the FBI. Given the myth of Hannibal Lecter, etc., this is
slightly startling.

According to Jenkins, the typical way a serial killer is caught is that
he's stopped for doing something crazy, like driving at 80 mph in a 30
mph area, and the cop finds a body in the back seat.

Note to self: cut bodies into little ittsy-bittsy pieces and place in
steamer trunk, and then place steamer trunk in vehicle's trunk. Mind speed
limits!

Another indication that Egypt is not the only country on de Nile.

More examples ? In the "Future...) thread we saw an Ok/Texan seriously
contend for the
superiority of private land stewardship. You should understand that one of
the largest scale environmental degradation's, resulting in a mass
outmigration occurred in this region. We called it the "Dust Bowl." Another
example, the loss of most of the top soil and complete impoverishment and
degradation of the population of the Texas Hill country occurred in the same
region.

In my own state, irresponsible logging and massive fires on Robber Baron
lands in the Olympic Mountains resulted in the State and Federal government
creating state and national forests in the lands it rescued from private
pillage. The deforestation of Michigan by the Robber Barons resulted in a
measured climate change in the lower Mississippi region. Much of the state
and national forest along the Appalachian mountains was mismanaged private
holdings, raped by the Robber Barons, sharecropped out till it was barren
then brought back with tax payer dollars to restore. I can understand that
you, as a non American might not be familiar with our history, but you need
to know that substantial portions of the public lands in the US were
literally rescued AFTER the "private sector" had devastated them.

Anyone who would write "Who are" as Who'er is not an American by their
actions.

While it may be accceptable English in the UK, I sure ain't never seen it
written that way over here in the States.
