There's currently a video doing the rounds and spreading like wildfire on the net, allegedly showing a guy accused of rape being brutally beaten by the either the Malaysian police, or security guards (this is still unclear). The fact is, regardless of what this guy has done, do they really have the right to dish out justice in such a manner? I thought the security forces were there to protect people and follow procedure, not act like wild animals and take the law into their own hands. You might say, 'OK, what if that was your wife/daughter/girlfriend'.. Yes, of course I'd want to kick seven kinds of shit out of the bastard, but that's just my opinion and it's not for me to decide their fate, this is for the courts and law to decide, even if it is an ass sometimes.
The twist to this story came in a statement from the Home Ministry, Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Husein called for the Malaysian Multimedia and Communications Commission (MMCC) to investigate, identify and punish those responsible for airing the clip online.
Now this is the funny part.... He further went on to say 'the act was aimed at tarnishing the image of the police'. !??
Forgive me here but... For one, there is no confirmation is was the police (even though his statement is almost an admission it WAS the police) and secondly, whoever originally aired this clip should be praised for showing such a miscarriage of justice. If anything, the idiots IN the video should be investigated, identified and SEVERELY punished!
Anyway, the video below is linked from You Tube, so make up your own minds:

Hypocrisy in the Catholic Church?
I do honestly feel a great deal of satisfaction when I read how a member of the high religious virtues mob comes crashing down to earth with an extremely large bump. For instance, in 2006 when the self-righteous, bible bashing, homophobic preaching Ted Haggard (Pastor of the New Life Church), admitted to soliciting the services of homosexual prostitute Mike Jones for sex and methamphetamine.
On January 4th earlier this year, I read an article on the Australian News website that headlined: The Pill is Polluting the Environment, Vatican Says. The report basically went on to explain how the Vatican Newspaper were garbling on about how the Pill is partly responsible for male infertility, amongst other nonsensical claims.
Last Friday, 31st July, the Pill finally after many years of protest by the Catholic heads, became legal in Italy. However, the powers that be at Vatican said on Thursday, 'it would excommunicate doctors who prescribed the drug and patients who used it.' Excommunication is a religious censure used to deprive or suspend membership in a religious community.
Today however, a Catholic bank in Germany has not only admitted to buying stocks in British arms company BAE Systems, but also in Tobacco companies and yes... American birth control Pill maker Wyeth Pharmaceuticals.
The word HYPOCRITES never had a stronger definition.
When will people wake up and learn, that the Catholic church like all other dubious and dogmatic religions, are just large organized businesses whose financial interests go way beyond the god fearing beliefs they deviously push onto the poor sheep who follow them.

Nice Try, 419 Scammer!
For those of you who are unaware, 'Advance Fee Fraud' (or 419 scam) is the type of email you have most likely received at one time or another, either from someone claiming to have vasts amount of cash and needs help to help get it out of a country (usually an African nation), or, a lottery win (that you have no knowledge of partaking).
The number "419" refers to the article of the Nigerian Criminal Code (part of Chapter 38: "Obtaining Property by false pretences; Cheating") dealing with fraud.
Scam baiting is the practice of pretending to be taken in by these fraudsters with the purpose of wasting their time, or to obtain evidential information which will hopefully lead to their downfall or even arrest.
I am a scam baiter.
So, last week, I received the usual crap from some moron looking for some poor sod to scam - Here's the email:

Dear Friend,
Thanks for your response to my mail. I am delighted at your response to my enquiry which made me to disclosing this information to you, be rest assured as it come with best of intentions and I will appreciate you show more commitment on this partnership,
During the course of my job as General manager & Procurement director with GLOBE IMPORTS UK LTD , I with the chief accounting officer made an over inflated procurement cost which estimate to the total of US$8,200,000.00 in $100 dollar bills. This fund was kept in a Locker deposited with United Nations Vault Office as Personal Effects. Our intension was on our retirement we should invest in purchase of Precious stones, diamonds and Gold or any lucrative business we might choose. However to protect our job and avoid any problem from our company and Government we registered that the (Fund) locker belongs to our foreign business partner and that when required it should be delivered overseas.
Unfortunately on 17Th January 2008 my colleague died in motor accident and I was left alone with the information of the money. I have approached the vault office to collect the locker but I couldn’t because of the terms we signed; it must be delivered to our foreign partner overseas. Hence I contacted you to be my foreign partner and receive the locker on my behalf from theUnited Nation diplomat or diplomatic courier whom I have earlier discuss with.
I will give you 30% of the total amount for this assistance and open a joint business where you will actively run the procurement business for me and the profits shared 80% for me, 15% for you while 5% is kept for operational cost.
Kindly provide the information below to enable me put up a fund Management agreement between us. I will also put up application for release of the locker to you.
• Complete Name & Address
• Occupation/ Position
• Age
• Country of Origin
• Contact Telephone No
I will expect your suggestions and opinion upon receipt of your positive response so that we can discuss on how we should proceed on the arrangement without delay. I am convinced with your personality as my instinct has allayed any fear of negativity or betrayal from your side.
I wait your urgent response.
Best Regards

Well, to cut a long story short, I had a few email exchanges with this idiot and tracked his IP address which confirmed he was staying in Malaysia on a StreamyX line.
Since then, I've managed to successfully communicate with Microsoft and Google, who have both responded by disabling his Hotmail and Gmail accounts, I'm now in process of getting TMNet to track him down.
Conclusion: Don't mess with me when it comes to internet scamming, I WILL find and shut you down! You have been warned!
