Well, it's no worse than those two kids who used sharpies to "draw" a mask on their faces, not realizing that, you know, they're called "permanent markers" for a reason.
It's from 2009: 'Dumb' American criminals attempt robbery with ‘permanent marker pen disguises’ __________________

I'm assuming alcohol was involved. Or it is yet another proof that a lot of criminals are just kinda dumb.

That's a show? Wow.
No, I haven't seen that show. Sounds a bit like "To Catch a Predator," but with cars instead of minors. __________________

Oh, how sad that people would find this entertaining. Not surprising, really, but sad.

What surprises me more is that people know this can happen and yet they still do it.

I am planning on watching it. So much is being made of if Joe Biden runs for President though, but I I like that there are not many candidates on the Democratic side this time though having a few more debates than they currently have scheduled on the Democratic side would be nice. Hopefully these candidates don't make any public comments during or shortly after this debate that they'll want to take back.

They have five candidates.... that seems like a lot to me.
But I didn't watch. I had no plan to watch to begin with, but I had plans tonight. I won't pretend like the outcome of the U.S. elections won't happen an impact on my life. Obviously, U.S. politics have a huge impact on the rest of us every single day. But, as I I have no say on who is elected... Now, I did vote yesterday, though, in our own federal elections. The actual day is next Monday, but I prefer to get it over with during the early vote phase. __________________

I didn't watch it either because I don't have cable but this morning, oh man I keep hearing about Hilary & Sanders...Hilary's answer to the question, how are you different from Obama and she said I'm a woman.... isnt part of her campaigning saying how's she not like him...and Sanders... you may be sick of hearing about her emails...but she did did a bad thing and needs to be held accountable, not have it swept under the rug because you're sick of hearing about it.

Well the e-mail scandal was only brought up once during this debate & after she did talk briefly about it & Sanders made that comment it wasn't mentioned again which was nice for me, but others I'd guess can't get enough of her e-mails.
Anyway 5 candidates is not a lot especially considering that only 2 which are Bernie Sanders & Hillary Clinton have realistically a decent chance at becoming the Democratic nominee next year. In contrast the Republicans have more than 10 people running for U.S. President this time though Rick Perry already dropped out of the race & Bobby Jindal I don't think was even at the most recent Republican Debate. __________________
