Subscribe to RSSA U.S. drone attack killed 19 suspected militants on Friday when it fired five missiles at a compound in Pakistan near the Afghan border, Pakistani intelligence officials said Saturday.
The strike was in the Datta Khel region, which is considered to be a stronghold of Taliban commander Hafiz Gul Bahadur.
The attack came just a day after trucks carrying NATO supplies crossed from Pakistan into Afghanistan for the first time in more than seven months. The crossing was allowed after the United States and Pakistan resolved one of their most heated disputes, with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton apologized for an air attack that killed 24 Pakistani soldiers last November.
NATO trucks cross Pakistan border after 7-month closure
The CIA has stepped up drone attacks in North Waziristan in recent weeks in an area seen as a hub for militant groups who attack U.S. forces and their allies in Afghanistan.
Eight people were killed there in a drone strike on Sunday.
For many Pakistanis, 'USA' means 'drones'
In a separate attack, 18 people were killed when armed men attacked a bus in a remote town in Baluchistan province.
The attack took place when the bus, which was travelling to Iran, stopped at a shop in the Kech area, police told Reuters news agency.

Another day; another ~12-24 dead "suspects". Lets hope the shoe isn't on the other foot any time soon.
If another nation launches daily drone attacks upon American civilians and killed thousands of innocent women, children and men, would the American people not rise up in arms against the aggressor? Would not American declare " We shall never forget?"
As the result of America's drone war in Pakistan, tens of thousands of people once indifferent or ambivalent toward the USA-Afghanistan conflict have now sided with the extremists. And they too have declared "We shall never forget" and vowed to avenge the blood of their people.
The death and destruction caused by America's war lovers, war mongers and Military Industrial Complex have committed US to a thousand years of war with the Muslim nations of Asia until memory, hate, and vengence fade with the passage time. Tens of generations of young men and women from both sides have already been consigned to their death as their fate have been sealed by America's indiscriminate killings of civilians for the past ten years in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Death and destruction will rain upon both worlds until Eternity. In the alternative, only when the sea gives up its dead and the rise of the promised Resurrection will there be end of wars between America and the Muslim World.
Heres what you fail to understand WallSt. Those regions that we are launching missles into cannot even be regulated by the Pakistani government, much less anyone with a decent grasp on law and order. It is a region run by tribes loyal to Sharia Law and radical Islam while at the same time beheading infidels, embracing Al Qaeda, cutting off little girls noses and ears for seeking an education, killing Pakistani police and soldiers loyal to the central government, planning attacks on US troops across the border as well as planning massacres similar to the Mumbai attack in India and against US presences on foreign soil.
Get a clue please, no one in that region and I mean NO ONE is ambivalent. They are tribes called the Haqqani Network and Laskar e Talibia whose entire population is complicit in these acts. The children construct IEDs or suicide vests and help bury roadside bombs or load ammo belts, the women provide shelter to AQ mid-level command and control elements from Chechnya or Syria, the teenagers are trained to ambush Paki patrols and the men engage in ruthless acts on large scales.
We kill because if we did not, they would be planning international destruction in a safe haven. They have vowed jihad on the west. They would kill you in the most painful way if you even set foot in this region. How do I know this? They attacked us mercilessly while I was deployed on the border, they came to die convinced that we were less than human because we were infidels and were not Muslims. Now that AQ is integrated into their ranks, they want western blood. The last attempted bombing was planned and prepared in the FATA, right where you say the innocents we are killing live.
Other news outlets are reporting this as "21 civilians killed".
Congrads people. Your tax dollars at work. Murdering women, children, innocent civilians. Pat yourselves on the back. Your lawless government keeps you safe.
No, not "suspects." Enemy combatants. This is a war, a war that we did not start. In war you kill the enemy before he kills you.
@wallstreet
No, here is what you really fail to understand...If He was skinning live puppies on the WhiteHouse Steps, PETA would praise him for calling attention to the plight of un-wanted animals in America...If he pesonally cut down every tree in America, The SIERRA CLUB would praise him for putting the logging companies out of business...If he randomoly fired our entire nuclear arsenal randomly all over the world, CODE PINK would praise him for making America Nuclear Weapon Free...

Mr.PheaNiques-0000001, I believe you're talking about our current President, because that's what I get from your post. Let's be truthful. If Obama doesn't attack our 'enemies, you would call him a coward. When he does, you get on his case. But your comparison's about our 'news reporters', says he gets a free ride anyway. Please do me a favor, you and your buddies lay out the rules of how he's doing wrong, so that we can better see your wisdom. But, that's not what you will do, because that could lead to you being cornered by your own words. You're playing a silly childs game, whatever he does, he's wrong, and no matter how bad he screws things up, his buddies in the "liberal press" will sing his praises. Grow up, and get a real argument. The one you're trying now just makes you look silly. My three-year-old great-nephew is better at logic than you are. The truly sad part is the mindless idiots who follow your drival, and call it wisdom. If I'm wrong about your intent, I'm sorry. But, if that's not who you're talking about, maybe you should just come out and name your target so there's no chance of misreading your message.
OK Petraeus, Rural cave dwellers on the other side of the world are not going to kill me.
If a bunch of Canadian militants kept crossing the border to blow sh*t up, and then ran back to Canada while the Canadian government sat there and did nothing about it, what would you do? Just suck it up and ignore it or would take matters in your own hands to eliminate the problem?
@Mark
My criticism was not of the President, I actually think his continued use of many of the tools that he "inherited" from Bush to keep our Nation Safe from Terrorists is exactly what he should be doing...My critisism is of his followers / supporters and the Media coverage of him...and I just don't get it, all the things that Bush was doing, that you and yours say makes him a war criminal, and much worse things than that...suddenly now that Obama is doing the exact same things and worse by a factor of ten...You have not a single word of criticism??? Did you not really care about all the people Bush was killing, or was it just that he was a Republican or a Conservative...
Please help me understand...
These "tools" that you say were inherited by President Obama--did Bush use them to kill Bin Laden? No--he was busy invading Iraq and destabilizing and entire region. I say--no more troops on foreign soil, regardless of who is the POTUS. We are broke and war weary after 11 years of this imperialistic scam. The only ones making out are the defense contractors.
These people have never left the 7th century.they have been trying to kick ass since then.They did not need motivation to hate us..it is built into the Koran you Liberal morons,the more you appease them the bigger problem they are. :o)
Bush would have sent hundreds of our soldiers storming into this area, or he would have stayed out owing to Pakistani-neutrality..
Obama has quadrupled use of these drones...saving lives of hundreds and hundreds of our troops.....
"18 people were killed when armed men attacked a bus in a remote town in Baluchistan province."
Pakistan invented, groomed and exported Islamic radicals and terrorists all over the world!
Just see what they are getting back in Pakistan, a pure Islamic nation! Reap what you sow!
If this is the case in a pure Islamic nation, what will be state of affairs in an impure Islamic nation?
You worship him like he is a god liam1161783. I blame bush for everything too. Like when I am late for work I blame Bush. When I get the flu I blame Bush. When I have to pay more for healthcare I already pay for I blame Bush. And when I cant stand Obama I blame bush. For if it werent for these conditions we live in before Obama and now. I blame Bush and Bush SR and the cookie monster & stupid political trolls like you.
mikem2.......you may be right but...but when you have boots on the ground you are wishing for something big too take the enemy out,instead of yourself having to do it.too much exposure is not good for the body. i do believe using the drones is better than sticking troops in their.
SEMPER FI
Just GTFO. They aren't going away.
Another article reads about them testing Drones for use over our cities. Make good target practice one day.
Look, up in the sky, what a strange looking airplane. Duck Achmed! Where is Achmed?
Sorry but Achmed shaved his beard, changed into civies and said something about his wife needing him back home. That trail of settling dust is the last we'll see of him.
An apology? I'm betting there was more to it than just an apology.
Probably a lot of pressure on Pakistan from both pro and anti-American sides. But in the end it would be Pakistan that would be loosing without U.S. support. They don't want to be overrun by Taliban any more than any other government and they needed to get the $$$ rolling again. But they needed to "save face" and in spite of all previous recompense and apologies, needed a high profile way to say things were all better.
Besides, they know we aren't going to stop going after terrorists on their soil. And after their shame over Osama bin Layin Low (which they never apologized for IIRC), it was time for a little song and dance to make everybody feel better.
So let the Convoy roll and the Taliban lay low til the day the Taliban be no mo'.
spr:
They sure want to be overrun by Americans!
Taliban are at least theri people. Americans have no feelings or love with them. They think Paksitan is prosittute. Services paid for.
No other proud country will let other countgry's army so dominate their air space or their soil,
Shame on Paksitan. They cannot come up just liek prostitute cannot come up.
Knowing Hillary, a few BJ's probably helped push the deal through.
GODGRAVITON -
The Taliban are mostly Pashtuns and mostly in Afganistan. Pashtuns make up about 15% of Pakistanis and 42% of Afgans. Also the Taliban have little respect or tolerance for anyone who doesn't believe as they do, regardless if they are Afgans or Pakistanis. So when you declare Taliban to be 'their' people, that's a pretty big stretch.
As far as the U.S. wanting to take over Pakistan, that's rubbish. It is radical Islamist who want to take over whenever and where ever they can and they have few moral standards in how they go about it. Murder, kidnapping, conscription, torture, terrorism, beating, beheading, drug smuggling, execution, and the list goes on.
By the way, Taliban have been know to take money to switch sides and cease hostilities. So apparently what you consider to be prostitution applies to the Taliban as well.
WoodShed
Hillary? Blow job? maybe with a bag over her head. She is to damm ugly.
To phrase "Red Fox" put her face in the dough and you can make gorrila cookies.
SprDg, facts and reason aren't going to change minds like GODGRAVITON's because his position is not based on facts and reason. WallStFatCat is even more delusional, albeit poetically delusional. What they fail to understand is that we are at war with modern-day Nazis by another name.
Ah, here we go. A fresh example of the peace loving Taliban: Afghan Taliban publicly execute woman accused of adultery; men cheer
But she was an adulteress so by their laws it was simply a form of justice, right? Well maybe not:
So apparently adultery only applies to women. Taliban men are allowed to engage in adultery, rape, torture and execution without being held accountable.
Then on the same day we get this:
Afghans are 'no different from any American' - Dr. Ashraf Ghani, chairman of Afghanistan's Transition Coordination Commission
Well, in that case I recommend they step up like Americans did and drive the style of justice meted out by the Taliban out of existence. Otherwise, no, they are not like Americans.
obama the barbarian..
the nobel prize winning judge and jury drone killing machine!
lets hope that his chickens don't come home to roost!
We still haven't learned a lesson. They'll shut down the NATO supply routes again.
So I suppose that you would say that the hundreds of billions of dollars spent...which was never included in the federal budgets under Drunkard Bush...invading Afghanistan then letting Bib Laden escape....on purpose so the war could continue????...now that is the possible true reason that no one wants to talk about but hell...Bush and Cheney were cowards....so why would Obama be a barbarian? Why don't oyou get your ass over to Afghanistan and be a brave patriotic soldier!!! And if you were a Afghanistan vet...I know a few...you'd be saying HELL YES!!
"greatpretender".....great post name....sounds like right up your alley!!
I'm pretty sure the civilized standard in war is that enemy combatants don't get legal protection until they lay down arms and surrender.
Perhaps "pretender" considers terrorist standards to be more civilized.
The Untied States of of Murder are just executioners of nameless people overseas. Illegal, but until a real world leader emerges to stop it, the evil continues.
DOU44, yeah sure.
And the Taliban and Al-Qaeda are just kind, loving, gentle folk who mean no one harm.
SprDg
They wanted a meeting with their Maker. They got that and I hope that He decided that they were not martyrs at all and sent them straight to hell.
You've got "good" and "evil" all mixed up in your head DOU.
Obama is not doing enough. While campaigning, he had mentioned about controlling Pakistan to win Afghanistan.
In Afghanistan, Pakis have backstabbed the US and NATO forces big time. Half of NATO forces deaths are due to ungrateful and backstabbing Pakis.
When the NATO forces were entering Kandahar in 2001, Pakis airlifted key al-Qaida, Taliban, ISI and others militants by back door from Kandahar.
This includes Mullah Omar, Osama and many including Paki Haqqani militant network leaders.
Hope you remember about Pakis sheltering Osama.
These Paki Islamic religious Nazis don't bother about their people and they are into reckless killing games in the name of jihad.
Drone attacks are not enough and to reduce NATO forces losses, Paki militant areas should be carpet bombed just like 1991 Iraqi war.
Sounds like Buster B is mad. You made fun of his daddy. Now it is getting mad on its post. I bet if you said Bush at the right time its head would pop off.
He's not alone. Say 'bush' at anytime and the heads pop all over the place. It's gotten so bad that one is afraid to discuss landscape shrubbery around them.
How many times have you heard some hurr durr 'tard screech about the cost of a trial for someone they just "know" is guilty? Since no-knock drug raids, strip searches even on public streets and warrant-less wiretapping have become the new "normal" (HAHAHA!) it's clear our overlords view us all as naught but sheep to be sheared. If "suspected terrorists" (remember that word: SUSPECTED) overseas can be subjected to torture and state-sponsored murder without trial, well why not start doing that with "suspects" here? It's easy. All you gotta do is just point the finger & fire away:
Hey - that guy's a child molester! *Swoosh* BOOM!
Hey - that guy robbed a bank! *Swoosh* BOOM!
Hey - that guy [REDACTED]! *Swoosh* BOOM!
What do you mean "evidence," citizen? We have plenty but it's classified - you can't see it. Trial? What are you talking about - don't you know we're at war? Hmm. I don't think I like your attitude - TRAITOR!
*Swoosh* BOOM!
One day sooner than you think, this will be us.
Coyu:
You are precient.
Surveillance admitted by the Federal government: drones are used to monitor "Polluters" on behalf of EPA; listening and recording cell-phone conversations; reading Emails; GPS tracking of person of interest; search and seizure by TSA.
Since Big Government has disregard the US Constitution, it is a rogue government.
Throw all the incumbents out this November. Elect candidates who are for a small Federal government.
Ah really!! And we get attacked, you'll be there to defend us?
There's a lot of feverish paranoia going around regarding drones.
People like this "hardtalk" character are more than willing to set fire to the entire US constitution & bill of rights as long as they can feel safe. they don't give a damn. And then there are others who thinks it's just feverish paranoia to believe that the government which holds upwards of two and a half million people behind bars, more than any other in the world, and which spies on us all without cause or warrant could possibly start using the drones to began murdering "suspected criminals" on the streets. They won't get a clue until it's too late - for them and for us.
I only wish we could add a few zeroes on to every count. Example: 12,000.
Yeah, typical of an American savage.
Yep. Pretty much. Don't you ever forget it.
To handle mad and savage Paki Islamic religious Nazis, what you posted is correct.
Add some more zeros or else they will be killing us in their jihad business one day or the other!
Sooner or later these drones will be used by Governments against its own people all over the world to control them. All the military technology will invade like spy camera at evey corner..our liberties will be gone. Then those who oppose Government will look back to its origin.
You are walking down the street and zip. You are gone.
To kill Osama was justified. But this daily killing. I doubt all are terrorists. Pakistani people feel hapless and humiliated with their national sovereignty violated lie brow shirts did Jews. Jews could not do anything and Pakistani could not do anything either.
Times to come
Possible scenario: Drone pilots sit in their little cubicles in a secret Nevada desert building killing "suspects" during the work day. "Pilots" then drive home to Vegas to have dinner with the little wife and kids !! Then go to the couch and play more video "war games" for more practice for tomorrows work !
This is the first (undeclared) war where one side can blast away without any fear of getting blasted back!( At least in the near future.) Is this moral? Was killing 250,000 Japanese civilians in 1945 moral? Is the US tobacco corporations that kill 500,000 civilians a year in the US from lung disease moral? Was killing 100,000 Iraqi civilians in the last 10 years moral? GOD only knows!! What happened to "Thou Shall Not Kill" ?
The war on terror, George Bush once declared, "will not end until every terrorist group of global reach has been found, stopped and defeated". But Barack Obama's administration, it appears, has ended it rather more discreetly - via email.
A message sent recently to senior Pentagon staff explains that "this administration prefers to avoid using the term Long War or Global War On Terror (Gwot) ... please pass this on to your speechwriters". Instead, they have been asked to use a bureaucratic phrase that could hardly be further from the fiery rhetoric of the months immediately following the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The global war on terror is dead; long live "overseas contingency operations".
obama has evolved into a bush contemporary?
I'm all for this campaign to kill Al-Quaeda/Taliban fighters and their allies, but I also want to hear the truth about how many civilians are being killed in these strikes. I get the distinct impression that these strikes aren't as neat and tidy as the press releases try to imply. I can handle the truth.
Very few.
They're even more neat and tidy than the press implies.
Okay, well the truth is that the drones are killing a lot of bad guys while at the same time avoiding civilian casualties. It's good news, Ernest.
Really? Really?? You know this exactly how, Adam44?
In reality, the insurgents/enemy combatants refuse to wear uniforms that would identify them as other than "civilians" and, stand up and fight as an army should do. The resultant casualties of people other than those targeted are a product of consorting with the enemy. If the populace in the targeted areas don't wish to become casualties in the conflict, they need to overthrow these criminals and not harbor them. As long as they continue to harbor them, they are rightfully also, considered to be the enemy.
DRONE ATTACK...?...DRONE ATTACK..???
This proves Joe Biden is a killer.
They're targeting Hafez gull Bahadurdurdur. I think they blew him up this time.
Yeah, and how many innocent people died because of the American hit squad button pushers?
Very few.
how many is too many...
It's war. There are bound to be some innocents who die in the crossfire.
why don't they use them to shoot down thugs and drug dealers????
WHO CARES!?!? Tell me when a drone kills 1200. Until then, shut up.
If someone happens to come into your home and kill 4 or 5 members of your family, I'm absolutely certain that you'll have the exact same reaction. "What? Only three women and one child? WHO CARES?!?!!?!?!?!?"
What a disgusting specimen of humanity you are.
Whah whah pussies like you are the reason people would even think of attacking us! We are at war get over it.
Tolstoy, go hug a tree. I hear you crying that all killing is wrong. Killing innocents is very unfortunate but so is watching our military members die in the thousands while we pussy-foot around. If we hit once, and hard, the war would be over.
What a shame...pussies? I agree. Unfortunately for you, you can't comprehend what I said. I am suggesting that we spend too much time pussy-footing around and should hit HARDER. We ended WWII b/c we actually did something. Drone attacks that kill 12 in the name of being "surgical" to lessen collateral damage...our military leaders are the pussies. BLOW UP Afghanistan and Pakistan. We have bigger and better weapons than drones. BOOOOM!! War over.
Those killed were not threatening the American people. If they did threaten anything, it was only the ambitions of a few that would dominate the world the same way so many infamous tyrants have desired throughout history.
How dare any American serve death to anyone living on the other side of the planet who has a legitimate birthright to his own country.
Shhhhhhhhhhhhh! Go to bed, yer drunk
There are many American groups that either hate this or that. Hate Jews. Hate Africans. Hate Nigerian. Hate Somalis. Hate Egyptians. Hate Palestinians. Hate Chinese. Hate Mexicans. Hate Germans. Hate Italian. Hate Irish. Hate Indians (both continents), Hate Catholic. Hate Protestants. Hate Buddist. Hate Evengelicals. Hate Mormons. Hate Lutherans. Hate Presbyterians. Hate Muslims......... Hate this and hate that.
Why can't certain Pakistani groups hate Americans?
Does the American global war on terrorism means killing any Pakistani who vocally shouts "Death to Americans!" in Islamabad?
Talk about a Red Herring argument. Shouting people are NOT being targeted by drones in Pakistan or anywhere else in the world.
Adam44:
In Yemen, two vocally disloyal American citizens, who openly and persistently criticized America's global war on terrorism and praised American designated terrorist groups, were assassinated by US drone attacks or Navy commando-style execution.
Shouting or not shouting anti-American slogan is not the point. The essence of my argument is hypocrisy: Americans can vocally announce their hatred of Islam with impunity but if a Pakistani group did the same, the American government will designate them as terrorist organisations. US Drones are subsequently dispatched to destroy the 'training camp' of these Pakistani terrorist groups.
Basically, America is saying: I can announce my hate of you but if you do the same, I'll kill you.
I love these reports.... Bong hits for everyone!
and wine...mad dog 20/20...i call it a ruff buzz...
Adam, the main reason we went to war with Iraq was "because of shouting people". So, you are full of donkey ca-ca when you say we dont target people for what they say. More have been targeted for for what they "shout" than for what ever they had done. THAT is how "we roll".........
I bet that was another "wedding" full with "children."
Yeah, it's always a wedding or a funeral, full of women and children. The best one I heard was the one about a girls school being targeted by drone operaters, as if girls schools were even allowed to exist in Taliban/al-Qaida infested areas....
It's all catnip to gullible self-hating westerners eager to believe any and every lie so long as it indicts the big, bad wolf.
Yes eight-year old brides sold to a sixty-year old to pay off a family debt - but don't worrry they were repeated abused by their brother's and uncles first - hell they had to do something after their neighbor's nanny goat died.
Hope so!
Waco?
Sleepo...
Stories like this make me wonder if there is top-secret information with respect to our goal in alienating one-billion + people. on the surface, it seems like a moronic idea to make enemies of so many people. but, alas, in order for the military industrial complex to continue to exist, it must create new, national threats, and new enemies.
why do i get the feeling that we may have picked a fight that we cannot win? they have more "new" people each year - our wombs are enemic... they create more scientists/engineers/doctors each year - we create more lawyers each year... they have more responsive governments... their countries are not being invaded/conquered by people who are alien to their way of life - meanwhile, reconquista is underway in the south-west.
War of the drones coming soon.
WHAM, BANG. Voo Doo 1 Voo Doo 1 next target
fmstereo...i think it's ...Wang Dang Doodle...all night long...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k43JnBxyZyE
Because of 9/11, the US was forced to go after terrorists, wherever they may be hiding. The US didn't start this, the terrorists did. I may not always agree with the way our government does business, but an attack on my home is going to be met with an exacting amount of force (whether the fight is next door, down the street, or 5 countries away), to be sure that another attack doesn't happen again. I believe that our presidents; past, present, and future, not only have the right to protect American interests, but because of our constitution; are legally obliged to protect said interests. I suppose if the Taliban or AQ were legitimate governments that were willing to negotiate, I wouldn't feel this way; but they aren't legit governments, they're terrorists. As for America killing innocent people, if you allow women,children, and the elderly to build and plant bombs that are used against our troops, those groups of people are no longer innocent, nor are the people that ordered them to build the bombs. Having said all that, in this age of technology, I don't believe we should be losing lives in other parts of the world. Drone strikes seem to be the way to go nowadays. Let's get our troops back home and stop the loss of American lives while defending our borders from within this country. Incidentally, I'm a military veteran (navy), and although I'm too old to serve again, I gladly would; thanks to my brothers and sisters in arms, I have the freedom to write and share this with you.
I keep looking for the root of all this Islamic hatred for our country. I can’t believe we were just going about our gentlemanly world business and suddenly the WTC is attacked.
Let’s think back. The Saudis invited us to find water and we found oil. Then the leathernecks poured in swarming over the desert doing what they always do every day: sucking down a ton of booze, smoking, swearing, spitting, and womanizing. Nothing wrong with that, it’s in our western genes. But Muslims are horrified, disgusted, and eventually angry, ergo OBL pleading with the royal Saudi family to send the Americans home. Instead, they sent him away.
All of this would have been avoided if the oil companies had used a workforce of American Muslims. There are certainly enough of them here. But Americans think we are perfect, who could possibly be offended?
So, in a way, we did start this, not you and me, but the oilmen who know absolutely nothing about Islam, and that probably does include you and me, and ran around violating that society’s rules. The same attitude of repulsion existed in our own land not so long ago. Hell, I was kicked out of a very small town in Kansas because I clearly didn’t attend church on Sunday. I was playing pool in a bar. If I’d hung around to argue, I could have been tarred and feathered and dumped in a highway ditch.
Basically, we Americans have a lot of learning to do. We’re still a kid country and we never look much farther than our borders to understand different cultures. I just hope we don’t copy the Brits who have rampaged for centuries and are getting even worse with their arms. It’s dangerous chaos. The UK just sold, I don’t know, a couple of dozen fighter jets to the Saudis. Um, I can’t think of anyone who’s been threatening the Saudis lately. Still, if we’re not armed to the teeth, I guess that means we can’t really call ourselves human.
USA 12, Pakistan 0. We continue to cruise at the top of the division.
that was funny!
maybe re-write the classic Queen song: ANOTHER 12 BITES THE DUST...ETC.!
And when has America not had an enemy that was out to destroy our way of life and can anyone name a ten yr span where the US was not a war with some 3rd world nation,
Great, now they're going to know where i hide all my dead hookers, lol, J/k, i've never touched one and plan not to partake in that nasty business.
