Anti-Government Webmaster Shot Dead By Russian Police
J.Tatar and a number of other readers alert us to the shooting death of an anti-government webmaster while in police custody in Ingushetiya, a volatile province in southern Russia. Police took Ingushetiya.ru owner Magomed Yevloyev off a plane that had just landed in Ingushetiya. "Yevloyev ... was a prominent opponent of the pro-Kremlin president of Ingushetia, Murat Zyazikov [a close ally of Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin]. Prosecutors have opened a preliminary manslaughter investigation after Yevloyev was shot in a police car in Narzan, the capital of volatile Ingushetia, a mostly Muslim region that borders Chechnya, Russian media reported. A spokesman for the prosecutor's office, Vladimir Markin, said 'an incident' took place after Yevloyev was taken into a police car 'resulting in a shooting injury to the head and he later died in hospital,' Interfax reported."

What?
Suicide.
How we know is more important than what we know.
The officer just tended to emphasize things by pointing his pistol and the roads around there are very bumpy. Complete and unfortunant chance. Could happen to anybody.
Haven't you ever seen Pulp Fiction?
He was a terrorist! ... oh wait, in russia. not in the usa. *siiigh* ... My theories never work out.
Maybe they were duck hunting at the time?

some how i just know this is global warmings fault. monsanto probably had a hand in it as well.
If you mod me down, I will become more powerful than you can imagine....
Maybe the police officer's was Dick Cheney's evil Russian twin. You know, accidently shooting folks in the head ;)
Ahh, what am I thinking, Dick Cheney IS the evil twin.
Oh wait, never mind.
IN SOVIET RUSSIA, further decline indicates YOU!
Got any other alternate theories?
John Travolta was leaning over the back seat, gun casually dangling from his hand while he debated philosophy with the prisoner. Driver hit a speed bump, finger squeezed the trigger and before you know it Yevloyev's head is all over the back window.
Complete accident!
And O.J. was with him! They both found the one-armed webmaster who had killed their wives.
She was like chocolate when she drank... semi-sweet at first and then increasingly bitter.
Godwined in the first three sets of page down comments. I'm not sure if that's a record but it's damned close.
Err... Well played my good sir?

Wow. A grammar troll that actually understands the subjunctive mood in English. Didn't I read that this would be one of the signs of the apocalypse? The capitalization, sure, that's an easy one, but subjunctive mood is screwed up with such regularity that I'd almost given up hope for anything remotely resembling proper English around here....
:-D
That reminds me of a crude joke that seems to have truth in it at times regarding law enforcement.
"What did the Alabama patrolman say in regards to the black man found shot 16 times in the back? Worst case of suicide he'd ever seen."
Thank you for posting that so I don't have to.
This is exactly how I picture this whole escapade went down.
"RUSSIAN MOTHERFUCKER, DO YOU SPEAK IT!"
... still waiting for this free-as-in-beer free beer I keep hearing about.
A Cold War would likely be preferential to redefining Global Warming.
Actually, TFS says he was shot in the car. For these to both be true, the cops would have had to have found a drive-through temple. I guess it would make confession more convenient.
Given, however, that the incident occurred in a Muslim area, finding such a temple seems unlikely...
How is that better?
In Soviet Russia police may also shoot you in the head for no particular reason?
"I'm not so sure that Russia's politics are any worse than China, North Korea, Iran, etc"
Etc. being some weird abbreviation of the United States?
I mean, Russia invaded a neighbouring country and (mostly) left within a month.
Iraq ain't next to Texas baby, and it doesn't look like the US army will be leaving very soon ...

My mother in law was sent to Siberia by russians
Say, you wouldn't still have the phone number for those guys, would you?
Where does the school board find them and why do they keep sending them to ME?
