Any adult who is no longer a child knows that child. Even "Leave it to Beaver". is more adult.

One would expect him to pick on someone more like himself - ie henry.

Police called after man kicks off about gay pride gnome at Plymouth Asda

A man was told to leave an Asda store by police after reportedly kicking off about a gay pride gnome.

Four police officers attended the Estover branch in Plymouth at around 4.25pm on Saturday following reports that an abusive male was shouting at staff.

A shopper, who was in the store at the time, told Plymouth Live that the man was "causing a disturbance over a gnome [in] sort of gay pride flag colours".

The man was shouting at staff saying the colourful gnomes "offended him", the witness added.

The force incident manager at Devon and Cornwall Police, who oversees all incidents across the two counties, said the man was said to be "abusive and loud" and "was advised to leave the store by officers at the scene".

The irate shopper "eventually" co-operated.

He added: "The man was making a complaint about an item he had bought."

The witness, who asked to remain anonymous, said the incident unfolded at around 5.30pm, adding that the man was alone and had a "rainbow coloured gnome" in his bag.

The more I contemplate the actions of the great mass of humanity, the more I scratch my head in puzzlement or shrug my shoulders in weary resignation.

A little more practice and I shall be able to do both at the same time.

Maybe he has other shit upsetting him and this is just what finally triggered the meltdown - on the other hand, maybe sometimes a gnome is just a gnome

I'd guess his wife or boyfriend brought it home.

Did that Gnome out bunny the bunny?

These Border Patrol Agents look perfect for the job of calming distraught young-uns.

They're filling those dolls with sand and sending them over to the Mexican side of the Rio Grande as training aids for border runners to practice swimming across the river with children strapped onto their backs. This is important because the children make good human shields so border runners won't get shot crossing the river.

Ex-LSU lineman Branch nearly died, lost his leg after shot by a dog on hunting trip

Former LSU lineman Matt Branch nearly died late last year after a freak hunting accident in which he was shot by a dog, causing him to lose his leg.

Branch, who played for the Tigers from 2008-2011, was on an annual hunt with his family and friends in Mississippi on December 28. Branch and several others started loading their duck hunting gear into the back of a truck, where his shotgun was laying.

According to the Clarion Ledger, a black Labrador Retriever suddenly jumped into the back of the bed and right onto the gun. Somehow, the dog’s paw turned off the safety and pulled the trigger, shooting Branch in the left leg. ...
They didn't mention that the dog also managed to chamber a round in the shotgun that was about to be transported.

(Maybe someone told the gunowner to load his shotgun on the truck and he misunderstood.)

Maybe a family member shot him and they lied to avoid questions.

In Mississippi, dogs are family members. But I know what you mean.

You're a conspiracy theorist's dream girl.
