Kids sure are dumbasses these days
First it was Grand Theft Auto, and now its Saddam's hanging. Kids will do anything they see on TV these days.
Sergio Pelico was found dead Sunday in his apartment bedroom in the Houston-area city of Webster, said Webster police Lt. Tom Claunch. Pelico's mother told police he had previously watched a news report on Saddam's death.
"It appears to be accidental," Claunch said. "Our gut reaction is that he was experimenting."
An autopsy of the fifth-grader's body was pending.
Julio Gustavo, Sergio's uncle, said the boy was a happy and curious child.
He said Sergio had watched TV news with another uncle on Saturday and asked the uncle about Saddam's death.
"His uncle told him it was because Saddam was real bad," Gustavo said. "He (Sergio) said, 'OK.' And that was it."
Of course, the left is going going to push for the 6PM news to be blocked by the V-Chip now.

Victory
We officially won Operation Iraqi Freedom tonight as Saddam Hussein is hanging somewhere in Baghdad. Tried by his own people, he was convicted of the genocide of the Kurds in Northern Iraq and put to death tonight.
Iraqi TV said the execution took place just before 0600 local time (0300GMT).
Saddam Hussein was sentenced to death by an Iraqi court on 5 November after a year-long trial over the 1982 killings of 148 Shias in the town of Dujail.
Two co-defendants, Saddam Hussein's half-brother Barzan al-Tikriti and former Iraqi chief judge Awad Hamed al-Bandar, were also executed.
The left is going to say we aren't winning the war. That we've lost it, that we need to cut and run.
Reality says something different. We won. We eliminated a ruthless dictator that could kill of his own people at a whim. The Iraqis have a new government, courts and military and a new constitution written by Iraqis.
We won. We completed all of the objectives. Victory is at hand.
