The world is crazy, no doubt about it.

On June 14th, the Taliban coordinated an assault on a very large prison down at Kandahar, Afghanistan.



So how'd it go down?



Two suicide car bombers bumrushed street security and set themselves ablaze. The main gate was torn apart and 30 Taliban militants stormed through the opening. They brought with them RPG launchers, hand grenades and dirty assault rifles. A fusillade of AK slugs brought hell to 16 very unlucky policemen. Seeing as it is a large prison, the attack resulted in the release of OVER A THOUSAND prison inmates, all of whom were likely screaming FREEDOM from the narrows of their lungs. Oh, and about 400 Taliban regulars were also let out. In case it hasn't been clear enough, they all escaped.



So let's do the math. 1000 + 400 = 1400.



That's a sizeable throng, and that's just terrible.



On a related note, this same prison was the site of a massive hunger strike. Wait a minute...the prisoners actually refused food? But that's just silly. Some even sewed their mouths shut after claiming that they were tortured and denied fair trials. This is also silly. Why would you seal your own mouth shut if you want to be heard? That's making it too easy for the guards.



Anyway, legal enforcers down at Afghanistan now have the very messy task of apprehending the 1400 fugitives scattered throughout the nation. Canadian peacekeepers have even thrown in a hand.



Chuck Norris should be overseas there. He'd be a damn good addition to the local efforts.



Proof as to why:

Chuck Norris once blew up a Sherman Tank by pointing his finger at it and yelling *BANG!* That means he's tough. True story.
