God damn, I know this sounds cold as shit, but it's one dead child that everyone is freaking out about, but no one even seems to give a shit about Syria. Huxley was right.
We can't do shit about Syria, so no one really will give a fuck.
Hell, if we can't even do shit about one dead child, there's no hope for Syria.

It's Florida.
Are you really surprised about incompetence in Florida?
I cannot eat rare steak or red meat (unless thinly sliced and served cold), yet I grew up on a farm and have slaughtered sheep (and observed people slaughtering/dressing cattle, deer, goats etc at some length for the same reasons). I ate freshly slaughtered meat (from the farm) almost every day for the first 18 years of my life etc. So I should not think that squeamishness is the reason for not liking rare or medium red meat. I really cannot stand the texture, it tastes rubbery and often watery to me.
Yeah, I understand that.
In my experience, though, there's been a slow creep regarding meat cooking styles more and more towards the well-done side. Ordering a "medium rare" steak in a restaurant should produce a tender and slightly juicy deep pink interior, but often it produces a light pink dry interior. To get a truly medium rare steak, you have to order it rare.
I don't particularly care for truly rare steak, either - I agree it ends up rubbery and watery unless it's a very pricey cut cooked very precisely - but I've gotten so used to ordering steak 'rare' that I sometimes forget that it's not the same everywhere.

Wouldnt it be the case that pretty much any sized nuclear bomb would be enough to wipe out the entirety of the Fallout 3 map?
That always bugged me about Megaton, you can see that thing blow up from tenpenny tower, then go to the site of detonation and just walk around absorbing minor rads. I guess over the course of a couple hundred years humans developed one hell of resistance to radiation.
It sure as shit sounded like there was enough evidence to convict her.
- Dead body smell in the trunk of her car.
- Tape on her skull where the body was found tracked to a rare brand found at their house
- Body stuffed in a laundry bag from their house.
- Google searches for "chloroform" and "how to break necks" on the family computer.
- Rotting garbage in the trunk
- Was placed later than her body
- I forget what the defense was for this
- Mother admitted she searched for these after Caylee went missing

Well you were in a vault so probably not. But it depends on the bomb. Some nuclear weapons put out relatively little radiation after the fact.
Is anybody else following the Casey Anthony trial?
This bitch just got off free for the murder of her two year old daughter.
I can't fucking believe this shit.
EDIT: yes, apparently everyone was following this shit. What are you gonna do about it, jail me?
I have been. Makes me sick and sad that the verdict was not guilty. I get that not all of the evidence might not have been there to legally convict her, but she definitely did it. I hate reading and seeing about kids getting hurt, and it sucks to see it go unpunished.

if the evidence wasn't there then you don't get a conviction

I can almost get how the evidence wasn't there for murder .... but how was it not there for abuse? She wasn't reported missing for a month. That is undisputed fact. Ignoring the whereabouts of your 2 year old for a month is somehow not abuse? The jury was insane.

I was trying to ask you about the hobby store you found. You don't mean Bellingham, MA, right? You mean one of the other, inferior, Bellinghams, right?
Bellingham WA, an hour north of seattle. Pretty much literally the upper left corner of the country.
Booo. I have about 2000 Magic the Gathering cards from the 3rd/4th edition era I want to get rid of but I can't find a card/hobby/gaming shop in my area.
I could ask my brother or his roommate where they go.

Man, reading/hearing some of these reactions from Random Person X on the net/tv towards the verdict of the Casey Anthony case further re-enforces my feeling that airing certain criminal cases on tv is a Very Bad Idea.
The worst part is all the folks screaming that she's obviously guilty and how could they not put her away for life and bluhblubbluh, when you know damn well they weren't able to follow the entire case for every hour it was in the courtroom like the jurors were able to.
Innocent or guilty, it was a show trial.

This.
I completely understand how there wasn't enough evidence to convict her for murder. Hell, I won't even say whether I think she did it or not, as that's all matters of opinion.
But there is no fucking way that a daughter can go missing for 31 days, while the mother is out partying, the mom doesn't report her missing the entire time, and the mother isn't somehow convicted of child abuse.
Once again, though, it's my mistake for expecting Florida to be competent in any way.

I cannot eat rare steak or red meat (unless thinly sliced and served cold), yet I grew up on a farm and have slaughtered sheep (and observed people slaughtering/dressing cattle, deer, goats etc at some length for the same reasons). I ate freshly slaughtered meat (from the farm) almost every day for the first 18 years of my life etc. So I should not think that squeamishness is the reason for not liking rare or medium red meat. I really cannot stand the texture, it tastes rubbery and often watery to me.
Yeah, I understand that.
In my experience, though, there's been a slow creep regarding meat cooking styles more and more towards the well-done side. Ordering a "medium rare" steak in a restaurant should produce a tender and slightly juicy deep pink interior, but often it produces a light pink dry interior. To get a truly medium rare steak, you have to order it rare.
I don't particularly care for truly rare steak, either - I agree it ends up rubbery and watery unless it's a very pricey cut cooked very precisely - but I've gotten so used to ordering steak 'rare' that I sometimes forget that it's not the same everywhere.
The opposite is way worse though. Like, I usually like my steak on the rarer side of medium, but I'll order Medium because then at least it won't be burnt if they overcook it and won't be cold in the middle if they undercook it.
I went out with some co-workers for sushi, but I don't really like sushi, so I ordered "Beef Tataki", which was described as beef with ponzu sauce. I like ponzu, so this basically read to me as chicken teriyaki with beef instead of chicken and ponzu instead of teriyaki, which are both so similar anyway that it all made sense.
I got thin slices of what I believe was completely uncooked beef in a pool of ponzu sauce. I ate it mostly out of politeness and I didn't want to be the guy that didn't get sushi like everyone else and then also complained about the food. The taste was pretty great, but it was extremely difficult to eat because I was kinda repulsed by the texture.
TLDR: Surprise raw meat is not awesome. Yummy, but hard to eat.

I think he's getting at, the shovel digs graves. And if she "borrowed it from a neighbor" days before she reported the death, the shovel may have been used to dig a grave for Caylee. That's what I think he's getting at, at least.

But Ace Attorney: Apollo Justice shows that the jury has the ability to look past the lack of evidence to secure a conviction if they're convinced of the crime.
