Eric Brown, 36, of Pt. Lucie, FL, is awaiting an arraignment for “assault” because he allegedly threw a Taco Bell burrito in his 16-year-old brother-in-law’s face.

7. Use it as a suppository

6. Mix with papier mache to make a piñata [Mas…]

7. Global warming

6. He finds this bullshit hard to swallow himself [Mas…]

In East Los, gangbangers finally got their chance to do [...]
