Re: La Salle Explorers
I don't know, he may have an idea. You could make a whole theme park. Just down from the Shoot JFK area, you could have a little college campus, give out a couple of pistols and see how many student robots you can take out. Call it the VT Challenge. Across from the Virginia Tech event area you could have the Columbine Challenge. Great thing about the VT and Columbine area is it could double for the Kent State Massacre and University of Texas Tower Shootings.
I think I may want to lay some capital in this project. It's got legs!

Re: La Salle Explorers
actually Rock Star video games (Grand Theft Auto) made a video game where you could recreate the Kennedy assassination
There was so much outrage they never released it.

Re: La Salle Explorers
An assassination theme park is a great idea, but just like everything else, you have to make it palatable enough to the non-core audience for it to fly. JFK, Lincoln, etc., causes too much "outrage" to the surrounding populace, even though you know there are lots of folks who would love to take a turn. But make it bin Laden or some other bad guy (hell, you could probably throw Garfield and McKinley in there) and nobody will complain much...

Re: La Salle Explorers
lot of weird coincidnces with JFK/Lincoln
Both presidents were elected to the presidency in '60.
Both presidents were elected to the United States House of Representatives in '46.
Both were runners-up for the party's nomination for vice-president in '56.
Both successors were Southern Democrats named Johnson born in '08.
Both presidents were concerned with the problems of American blacks and made their views strongly known in '63. Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation in 1862, which became law in 1863. In 1963, Kennedy presented his reports to Congress on Civil Rights, and the same year was the famous March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.
Both presidents were shot in the head.
Both presidents were shot from behind.
Both presidents were shot in presence of their wives.
Both presidents were shot on a Friday.
Both presidents were accompanied by another couple.
The male companion of the other couple was wounded by the assassin.
Lincoln was shot at Ford's Theatre. Kennedy was shot in a Lincoln automobile, made by Ford.
Lincoln had a secretary named Kennedy who told him not to go to the theatre. Kennedy had a secretary named Evelyn Lincoln (who was born 100 years after Lincoln, and whose husband Harold's nickname was Abe) who warned him not to go to Dallas.
Both Oswald and Booth were killed before they could be put on trial.
Lincoln and Kennedy each have 7 letters.
Lincoln and Kennedy both have five syllables in their full name (which counts Kennedy's middle initial).
John Wilkes Booth and Lee Harvey Oswald each have 15 letters and 3 words.
There are 6 letters in each Johnson's first name.
Booth ran from a theatre to a warehouse, Oswald ran from a warehouse to a theatre.

Re: La Salle Explorers
"Assassination Vacation" is an entertaining book. Its Sarah Vowell going to sites of the various presidents (minus JFK) that got assassinated and talking about the history surrounding them in a very entertaining fashion.

Re: La Salle Explorers
RUSSIAN NAVY CAPTURES SOMALI PIRATES
How about that - The Russians captured the Pirates, tied them up, put them on the boats, then set them all on fire - puff no more Pirates!
NO POLITICAL CORRECTNESS BS HERE!
This video shows Russian Navy commandos on a Somalian pirate ship shortly after the pirates had captured a Russian oil tanker. The Euro Union navy that patrols these waters would not interfere because they feared there could be casualties.
All explanations are in Russian with a single exception of when a wounded pirate says something in English and the Russian soldier says "This is not a fishing boat". All conversations between the commandos are in Russian. If you don't understand Russian, the pictures speak for themselves.
The soldiers freed their compatriots and the tanker. The Russian Navy Commandos moved the pirates back to their own (pirate) ship, searched the pirate ship for weapons and explosives and then they left the ship and exploded it with all remaining pirates hand-cuffed to it.
The commandos sank the pirate ship along with the pirates and without any court proceedings, lawyers etc. That is, they used the anti-piracy laws of the 18th and 19th centuries where the captain of the rescuing ship has the right to decide what to do with the pirates. Usually, they were hung.
I would think from now on, Russian ships will not be targets for Somali pirates. Here are 2 links to the video--hope one works!!

Re: La Salle Explorers
It won't matter. I don't believe the pirates have any idea the nation of origin for the boats they seize. Plus, they're normally just teens, or barely past their teens, and poor. The business is too profitable for the warlords who run the operations (and never touch the seas themselves), so they will keep sending kids out there and they will keep taking over any boat they can access.I would think from now on, Russian ships will not be targets for Somali pirates.
Did the sniper shots on the pirates that the US Navy executed a couple years ago stop US-based boats from being targeted?
The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.
