Osama Hunter's Beard Is Intact

Gary Brooks Faulkner, the American detained in Pakistan while he was looking for Osama bin Laden, had a stopover in LA on his way home to Colorado. He told reporters he "absolutely" was going to return to Pakistan and said received dialysis for his kidney issues adding,", "This is not about me. What this is about is the American people and the world. We can't let people like this scare us. We don't get scared by people like this. We scare them. And that's what this is about. We're going to take care of business and we will take care of business very soon." Faulkner has served "five separate stints for burglary, larceny and parole violations" in Colorado, according to KTLA.

Godspeed and good luck not getting beheaded, you utter loon.

There is sadly a whole culture out there that responds in this misdirected fashion to the changing world order, but he is nicely working the John Denver separated-at-birth look.

He's not a hero you fucking morons, he's a psycho: "He served prison sentences in Canon City, at least twice, in 1981 and 1986, on burglary and larceny convictions, according to CBI records. In 1996, Faulkner was sentenced to one year in the Denver County Jail on a domestic violence assault conviction, according to Denver court records."

See if you think he's a hero when he's burglarizing your house in his underpants carrying a sword and molesting your daughter--and getting your poodle pregnant!

I am not sure if he deserves a medal, he hasn't accomplished anything yet. However I could see him being a great subject for an errudite book or a profile on "This American Life".
