If You Go AWOL, Don't Take The Base's Hummer.
« on: January 27, 2010, 04:41:52 PM »
News media said he ran out of "gas", seeing how the Hummers are diesel, that's another topic, as "fuel" escaped them...and this guy.

Either way, this is a real dumb-a** who will be going to Leavenworth to "think" about it....for awhile... Nothing like a "low-profile" vehicle to make your getaway......

A U.S Army soldier was arrested Monday in Volusia County. Deputies say he stole a military Humvee and took off.
Deputies say Private Sean Johnson drove the Humvee from his army base at Fort Stewart in Georgia all the way into Volusia when he ran out of gas.

A Volusia County deputy saw the vehicle stranded on Interstate 95 near the Port Orange exit and stopped to check it out.
He got suspicious when Johnson didn't have any military paperwork to prove he was on a military mission.

The deputy called the Army. Army police say Johnson was AWOL and had stolen the Humvee earlier in the week.
Johnson is in the Volusia County jail facing grand theft charges.

Of course it happened in Florida. ::) My state, home of the weird. We really need to change our state song from "Seawannee River" by Stephen Foster to "Lawyers Guns and Money" by Warren Zevon. Lets just be honest here. :-[ :-[ :-[

Don't take one of these either. Too conspicous going down the highway in the wee hours. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M88_Recovery_Vehicle

Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. The only thing you can’t do is ignore them

Why is it always Volusia County?  Its like Daytona is a homing beacon for stupid....  I was once pulled over for DWW in Daytona (Driving While White)... the cop pulled me over cuz it was after midnight in the "dark" part of town and was afraid they would carjack the poor defensless white boy in his jeep.

Volusia doesn't get ALL the nut jobs.  We have any number of them here in Pinellas, and Hernando and Palm Beach are frequently well represented on the dumber-than-dirt list.  Hillsborough has had some hot teachers bumping uglies with highschool students, and Pasco...  Well, there is some serious retardation observable in Pasco.  It's a Florida thang...  California has its flakes and nuts, but Florida owns the crazies market! ;D
