Escaped Convict Continues To Update Facebook

Posted by samzenpus on from the hiding-in-farmville dept.

Craig "Lazie" Lynch has been on the run from a U.K. prison since September. However, he continues to taunt police by updating his Facebook status. Now he is threatening to quit. From the article: "It seems, though, that late Sunday, Lynch began experiencing a little emotional pain. In what must have been an almost teary update, he posted: 'right I'm coming off this page as I have better things to do.' Who might have imagined that, in his mysterious hideaway, Lynch had something better to do than continue his run as a Facebook attraction?"

      No he wasn't referring to the returned gitmo detainees as there's no evidence that any one of them were involved. But as you're somebody who seems to be a proponent of indefinitely locking up people without trial then I'm sure you're not bothered with a little thing like evidence. Stop being such a coward and try to hold on to the things which the founding fathers explicitly demanded of their new government. People like you do more damage to America than terrorists. Well, not people exactly like you.. The people who do more than simply troll websites from their living room. Pathetic.

    I think that many of us have incidents in our past that would make for a good book or movie. I certainly thing that there is stuff in my past that would hold interest for a couple hours of movie time. Certainly I tell stories that keep people engaged for a long enough time socially or at work.

    The problem is that writing a book or screenplay is deceptively hard.

    The guy ASKING was not.

    Quit assuming, it makes you look stupid.

    P.S. The secret google machine will give you the same information. if you replace USA with UK. I know that is too advanced for you to handle but there it is.

    Lumpy's info is interesting. and Living in Cuba is actually quite nice.
