| [FoxNews] Alligator taken to Dallas Zoo with help from US Fish and Wildlife Service A multi-agency operation in Dallas resulted in the arrest of eight alleged gang members in possession of guns, drugs, money and a reptilian accomplice. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives (ATF) led the investigation resulting in the execution of "Operation Blue Laces" in South Dallas on Monday. Acting U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Texas Chad Meacham said the operation resulted in the arrest of eight members of the 42 Oakland Crips street gang. During the operation, agents reportedly seized 14 firearms, over a kilogram of methamphetamine pills, oxycodone, hydrocodone, codeine, alprazolam, marijuana, hash and over $47,000 in cash. Investigators also seized six vehicles, multiple pieces of Crips-themed jewelry and a caiman alligator. |

| #5 The Reptile's Abdomen Suppose a cylindrical gator. It ain't quite the perfect predator, But stick to dry ground Should you see one around, And be glad you're not near the Equator. Still can't bite for shit but they rolls like crazy. |

| #3 Given the number of drug addicts that die each day here in the USA. May it is time to look at top level Drug dealers (cartel) facing the death penalty. But given the current screwed up Justice System process, putting them to sleep would still take 20+ years. |
