If looks could kill... Police cover murder suspect's 'moobs' for the sake of public decency:
You would think that the Los Angeles Police Department had seen it all before.
But murder suspect Eduardo Ibarra Perez stands out from the rest on their 'Most Wanted List' - quite literally.

Supreme Court upholds freedom of speech
From The Onion:
WASHINGTON—In a decisive and vulgar 7-2 ruling, the U.S. Supreme Court once again upheld the constitution's First Amendment this week, calling the freedom of expression among the most "inalienable and important rights that a motherfucker can have."
"It is the opinion of this court that the right to speak without censorship or fear of intimidation is fundamental to a healthy democracy," Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg wrote for the majority. "Furthermore, the court finds that the right to say whatever the hell you want, whenever the hell you want, is not only a founding tenet, but remains essential to the continued success of this nation."
Added Ginsburg, "In short, freedom of speech means the freedom of fucking speech, you ignorant cocksuckers."

Donkey found not guilty after 8-year trial
A Croatian donkey has been found not guilty of assault after a trial lasting eight years.Croatian Times
Dino the donkey was accused in 2002 of biting an eight-year-old girl in the northern village of Blazevdol.
The child’s parents attempted to sue Dino’s owner, Ljubomir Smrndic, demanding damages to be paid to the girl until she reached the age of 18.
But Smrndic successfully argued Dino had been provoked by the girl who had thrown stones at the donkey.
Judges this week ruled that Dino was not guilty and that Smrndic should not pay damages.
Sadly, Dino will be unaware of the victory as she died two years ago.
ROFLCon documentary
For one weekend every two years, the viral internet comes together IRL (in real life). Yup, it’s as bad as it sounds.Listen to people like Charlie Smidth (Keyboard Cat), Ben Huh (I Can Has Cheezburger), the guys from Autotune the News, Mahir Cagri (the original Borat), the guys behind Stuff White People Like, David after Dentist, Alexey Vayner (Impossible is Nothing) and more to what they have to say about memes and Internet culture in this 20 mins. documentary about ROFLcon.
And by bad, we mean really, really awesome. ROFLCon, the brainchild of a few Harvard undergraduates, is a biennial gathering of the Internet’s foremost makers of viral memes, their hardcore fanboys, and the net researchers who get excited about them (with a hefty dose of chin-rubbing, no doubt).
