ASSOCIATED PRESS: Independence MO Cops Shoot Fake Alligator

It wasn't reported in the ASSOCIATED PRESS story via the ST. LOUIS (MO) POST-DISPATCH Website the exact location where the incident occurred- regardless the IPD reportedly shot a fake alligator in an Independence pond last Sunday.


Two rifle shots reportedly ricocheted off the concrete "lawn ornament" before police discovered the alligator was a fake.


Nowhere on the INDEPENDENCE-BLUE SPRINGS-GRAIN VALLEY EXAMINER Website could this story be found- but then I report LOTS of news in Indy that never makes their Website.

Just make sure that when the Independence and Blue Springs paper DOES report stories that others don't (and they do, see last Saturday for a good example), make mention of it. Idiot.

By the way, you shouldn't use that gator photo; that's not the actual ornament and it's misleading.

Anon1157- So SEND ME an actual photo-

Oh ... (A1156- probably same as 1157) ... imbecile!

The following link is a story that no paper or blog had the day of the verdict. In fact, no one had reported on the prior pleading in mid-May.

As for supplying you the real photo, go find one yourself. Or ask Fox News, since they're the ones who took a photograph after completing their one-sided story. They didn't even contact police to confirm the story, which is poor reporting.

Thing is, Groucho, all TV stations and papers get beat on stuff. That's the nature of the business. It doesn't, however, give you the right to put them down. Show more class.

I'll freely admit that sometimes I'm an idiot or an imbecile, but that's just it: I'm not afraid to admit it.

But when clowns like this purport to "break news" by using an AP link – that's beyond idiocy, dude. It's idiotic and hypocritical and just plain argumentative and childlike.

Bloggers aren't journalists/reporters; they are errand boys, linkers, whores and those small little fish that attach themselves to large fish in the sea. They will be just one small pebble that will turn into a boulder that will destroy democracy.

wow captain, let me take this %!&@! on cause it sounds like somebody pissed in the guy's oatmeal this morning.

they don't read your blog at all, that much is clear.

dude or dudette, just where did the captain post this story as breaking news anyway?

plus, correct me if i'm wronf cap'n, he's a one-man operation, not some corporate newsroom with a gazillion staffers with a budget to match.

still he's more on the ball than most of the newsrooms in this burg.

buy a clue anon and go the fuck away!

Hmmmmmm and I sure it's real bright people such as these who voted for the e-tax in Kansas City Mo again.

You made your point who ever you are hiding behind anonymous so if you don't like it then don't come back and read it.

Oh by the way Simpleton it isn't a breaking story. CSW is simply letting us in here who don't watch TV news least in Kansas City know about this story. I already knew about it from the AP site.

And Simpleton if you knew and understood english CSW also states reportedly which means stupid it isn't or CSW has not confirmed it to be fact.

So go talk stupid somewhere else so that the grown ups here can share our opinions without being bothered by a simpleton.
