According to information provided by the Mohave County Sheriff's Office, the man doing the aforementioned things was 20-year-old Richard Prunty, a Kingman resident.

According to court documents obtained by New Times, employees at the MVP Sports Bar said Aranda came back with a knife, but when the cops caught up with Aranda and his buddies a few blocks away, they discovered that he was holding a screwdriver.

Afternoon Poll: Did Osama bin Laden Deserve Proper Muslim Burial?

By James King Mon., May 2 2011 at 2:43 PM

Categories: Afternoon Poll, Religulous

This is the fake photo of Osama bin Laden's bullet-riddled body that's been floating around the Internet today. Hopefully we'll see the real deal sometime soon.

As you may have heard, Osama bin Laden, the POS responsible for the deaths of thousands of people and who managed to evade capture -- and death -- for nearly 10 years, is dead. What you may have not heard (yet) is reports that he was given a "proper Muslim burial" at sea after getting fatally shot by U.S. special forces at a compound on the outskirts of the Pakistani city of Abbottabad.

According to "anonymous government sources," after getting shot, special forces soldiers reportedly took his body to a U.S. naval ship and dropped him into the water in accordance with "Islamic practice and tradition" that states the body must be buried within 24 hours of death.

See some of the other requirements for a proper Muslim burial here.

If you look at how the remains of other infamous outlaws have been treated, Bin Laden's corpse got off easy. If you ask us, the Italians had the right idea when they hung the body of Fascist dictator Benito Mussolini by meat hooks in the middle of Milan and then stuffed his own testicles into his mouth as the crowds cheered.
