RE: Breaking News in the Milwaukee area


No place is safe anymore. I live in what should be a very quiet area but we have had our share of national news grabbing nut jobs: The crazy out of control gambling woman that tried to rob the Bank of America on New Years Eve 2001 (another nice day in the hood... that branch is 2 blocks up the street from the air traffic control tower I used to live by) and the serial killer who got caught because he stole some woman's "personal playthings" and she turned him in to the police. Still, I feel pretty good about my odds. Olathe has a lot of law enforcement presence... city, county, and state all have offices here. We also have a National Guard armoury.

Dylan, did you have the pleasure of making the acquaintence with this young man yet??


UPDATE: 'Angelic beings' drove standoff
The man who claimed to have a bomb inside a public restroom in the City of Pewaukee Police Department told police that "angelic beings" told him to start a war against his own government.

Malcolm Ward Richards II, 26, of the Village of Pewaukee, was charged today with causing a bomb scare and attempted armed robbery. He is being held in the Waukesha County Jail on $100,000 bail.

Richards, whose standoff with police Monday lasted 2 1/2 hours, is accused of demanding a squad car and a gun so he could go to Madison and then Washington D.C. to shoot congressmen and senators, according to the criminal complaint.

Court Commissioner Martin Binn ordered a competency exam for Richards. Richards is also prohibited from possessing any weapons and having contact with the City of Pewaukee Police Department or the officers unless it's an emergency, records show.

According to the criminal complaint, at 9:20 a.m. City of Pewaukee Police Officer Kristen Bast found a piece of paper on the floor outside the unisex restroom door. The computer generated note stated he had a bomb strapped to him, he demanded a weapon, a police vehicle and to be brought to the vehicle. The note states that he did not want to hurt police officers but his intent was to arrest the government for failing to protect children, war vets, the helpless, for failing to fight greed and corruption, and for violating all constitutional amendments.

The man had been in the bathroom for five hours before the note was discovered, the complaint says. Police checked a video surveillance camera in the lobby and saw a man dressed in camouflage enter the bathroom at 4:15 a.m. While officers were investigating the first note, a second note, identical to the first was slipped out from under the door, the complaint says.

A detective maintained a dialogue with the man later identified as Richards for 2 1/2 hours until the Waukesha County Sheriff's Department tactical team entered the bathroom and used pepper spray on Richards. He was taken into custody without injury about 12:15 p.m.

He wrote the note and created the device that he strapped to himself five days prior to the incident. He cut a hole in a winter vest and using a cell phone car charger, he put the wires from the charger into the vest and used the other end as a fabricated detonator for what he later claimed was a bomb, the complaint says.

The unemployed Richards lives with his mother. He is separated from his wife, according to jail records.

If convicted of both felonies, the maximum penalty is 23 1/2 years in prison and fines totaling $60,000.

Richards is scheduled to be back in court on Aug. 13.

Sounds to me like the squirrels in this dude's head are definitely gnawing on their own backsides. On the up side, this has to be one of the lamest and least enthusiastic bomb threat attempts in history. 5 hours in the unisex bathroom BEFORE the note was discovered?!?!weirdface.gif Perchance had he managed to shanghai the actual ladies room, his protest might have been noted about 4 hours and 59 minutes earlier.

Did they ever subdue the bike? What it it's mental state? IF THE TIRE DOESN'T FIT, YOU MUST ACQUIT!

There are several levels of insanity which can be gauged by how one's cranium dwelling squirrels are behaving:

Mild insanity... Squirrels juggling marshmallows and daisies

Moderate insanity... Squirrels juggling knives (Thanks to my brother Robert, Bob, and Bobby for that level)

Sever insanity... Squirrels barking and growling at each other's arses

Absolutely, irretrieveable separation of cheese from cracker, should be forever in a state facility: Squirrels gnawing on their own arses.
