We’ve got to hand it to him, if we drank that much a) our circuits would likely short out and b) we certainly wouldn’t remember this Queen classic word-for-word. Here’s hoping that “being really drunk” was really all that landed him in this position, otherwise we’ll feel a bit guilty for giving this guy his 15 minutes. source
See this thing up here? That’s right. Water nozzle. Too bad police in Long Beach, Calif. didn’t notice that the drunk guy holding it wasn’t actually holding a gun. Unfortunately, he pointed it at the officers, who then shot him. Now, Douglas Zerby, who was waiting for his friend to pick him up on a street corner, is dead. His older sister, Eden Marie Biele, while being justifiably outraged, offered this thought of the day: ”We’re outraged. You can’t get drunk in the city of Long Beach and not get shot? You’re trying to do the responsible thing and not drive and you get shot? Is that standard protocol? They didn’t wait for backup, they just shot him.” source
