Lookin' like hillbilly Gandalf with a Glock... I sure thought I'd win the weekly Florida award for this next one, but it's a close race with Gandalf : ‘Poop smears on the seat’: Delta reportedly apologizes after passenger endures cross-country flight next to ‘human biohazard’
Florida man arrested after toddlers pictured with guns, beer, mar1juana: Deputies The Brief Taylor Knoop of DeLeon Springs was arrested after photographs surfaced showing children with drugs, a firearm, and alcohol, deputies say. Authorities say the photos, some from allegedly from three years prior, were staged, and the home was found in unsafe condition. Knoop is charged with child neglect; the children were placed with relatives. DELEON SPRINGS, Fla. - A Volusia County father has been accused of being tied to disturbing photographs of toddlers and infants with firearms, drugs and alcohol. Taylor Knoop, 27, of DeLeon Springs, was taken into custody on Sunday. What we know: Taylor Knoop was arrested after Volusia County deputies and child welfare officials responded to allegations involving images of children posing with drugs, alcohol, and a handgun. The photos depicted an infant and a toddler in staged scenes involving mar1juana, a Glock-style handgun, and a beer bottle. The residence was also deemed unsafe, with exposed wiring, unfinished plywood walls, and a partially missing ceiling, according to an arrest report. Authorities say Knoop admitted to being aware of the photos and confirmed the mar1juana was real, although he claimed it belonged to someone else. Knoop denied taking most of the photos but admitted to staging one of them "as a joke." Deputies charged him with child neglect, citing both the photographic evidence and hazardous living conditions. What we don't know: It remains unclear who took the other disturbing photos if Knoop wasn't the photographer, as he claims. It’s also unknown if further charges will be filed against other adults connected to the case. The identity of the children involved has not been released, and it’s not confirmed whether DCF plans to pursue permanent removal from the household. The backstory: The case came to light after a witness who allegedly received digital copies of the photos submitted them to authorities. Concerned by the images, the witness filed an online report to the Department of Children and Families, which was initially denied, according to the arrest report. The witness was later advised by her DCF contact to report it to law enforcement directly. The photos, some dated back as far as three years, were reviewed by deputies who claimed to recognize both the setting and Knoop from prior interactions.
Texas Man is bringing it strong: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/22/us/texas-men-haiti-island-takeover-plot.html Two Texas men planned to recruit homeless people to partake in an armed coup of a Haitian island, murder all the men, and turn the women and children into their sex slaves, according to an indictment. The men, Gavin Rivers Weisenburg, 21, of Allen, Texas, and Tanner Christopher Thomas, 20, of Argyle, Texas, were indicted on Thursday in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, federal prosecutors said in a news release. According to the indictment, Mr. Weisenburg and Mr. Thomas started planning their coup in August 2024. The pair planned to travel by sailboat to Gonave, an island of about 87,000 people that is part of Haiti, and take it by force. To prepare for the coup, the men started learning skills they thought would be helpful. Both were learning Haitian Creole, according to the indictment. Mr. Weisenburg joined the North Texas Fire Academy in Rockwall, Texas, in August 2024 to learn “command-and-control protocols,” according to the indictment. He failed the fire academy and was dismissed in February 2025. After failing the academy, Mr. Weisenburg traveled to Thailand to learn how to sail, according to court papers. The men planned to buy a sailboat to reach Gonave but because of the cost, Mr. Weisenburg did not enroll in sailing school. Mr. Thomas joined the U.S. Air Force in January 2025. He messaged Mr. Weisenburg, telling him he joined the military to help their plans, according to court papers. …more at the link I love that they were planning to invade by boat, so one of the guys joined a fire academy (and got thrown out) and the other joined the Air Force to get prepared
I have watched the Video several times and still haven't seen any safety chains. There is an exception if it was farm equipment moving under 20 MPH, but it feels like the truck pulling the Roller was going faster than 20 MPH.

This one looks like the Tomball/Klein/Louetta area. This dude looks like he was trying to run from demons. Either that or he heard that HEB's buttered tortillas were back in stock. Audio NSFW :
The maniac driver does get partial credit for having the emergency flashers on and slowing down enough turning into the Parking Lot so that the Jeep wouldn't roll on to it's side.
