    Thanks.
    I don't see a personal attack on this thread. Nor do I see a picture or video on post #18...

    That's because I unapproved it. I was giving a warning in the thread so it didn't continue.

    And I'm not sure why you don't see the video. It appears on my screen.

    Did you accidentally unapprove it?

    There was a personal attack. It was unapproved, so only Mods can see it. Not sure where the confusion is.

    No, I didn't unapprove my post (#18) that contains the video.

    I did a standard [-video-]youtube.com/adsf/dagadga/[-v/ideo-] link, so I don't know why you can't see it.

    Here's a link if you really want to see it.

    Way to sniff it out Mr. Crime Dog!

    I read that it was the worst in 100 years, so chances are maybe your great grandkids might have a .00001% chance of worrying about it happening again.

    Earth is hit every day by meteors. It happened in a shitty area of Russia. Nobody cares.

    Obviously because most of Earth is covered in water... The probability of the meteor landing in the ocean is much greater than it is to land in populated area.

    Also seems common that meteors hit Russia/Serbia. Too bad a meteor hasn't yet taken out the slant eyed bastards in Japan.

    I saw where Russia's "Rush Limbaugh" a nationalist talk radio host in Moscow is trying to blame the Americans for this. As long as Putin is running th show over there we are going to have to deal with these bastards again in the next 10 yrs.
  • Gblock
    good article on the probability of the two events being related

    I want to know why everyone is Russia has a dashboard camera in their car.

    Also, the Russians can't be that bad because they drive on the right side of the road.
  • TedSheckler
    They do it because people have a bad habit of throwing themselves in front of cars and hit and runs are very common. Fraud is very rampant and cops are corrupt. It's just evidence for the drivers.

    So, Russia's version is just as painfully stupid as ours?

    So where does the fraud come from? Most of those people just got right back up and walked around.
  • TedSheckler
    Probably because most of the people were smart enough not to stop or the perp realized they had a camera.
