five
The number five represents:
- The number of division championships won by the Kansas City Royals since their inception in 1969.
- The age of Justice John Roberts’ son, whom Daily “Screw Them” Kos readers would like to out as “gay” by doing opposition research.
- The “Operating Thetan” level you have to be at before the Scientologists will tell you about the aliens.
- The number of Mexican police killed in the last seven days by a narco-terror gang in Nueva Laredo, Mexico, within spitting distance of the US border. Said terror gang is operating in six US states.
Answers below the fold:
- Seven. The Royals won division championships in 1976, 1977, 1978, 1980, 1981, 1984, and 1985. They won the American League pennant in 1980 and 1985, and won the World Series in 1985, beating the St. Louis Cardinals in seven games.
- Roberts’ son is four years old.
- OT 3, baby. Just look what it’s done for Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. She has that “I’ve just had my brain sucked out through a straw” look. And that creepy lady follows her everywhere.
- Bingo. Five cops KIA in one week.
Ricardo Uvalle Escobedo and Jose de Jesus Morin Salinas were killed by gunmen in separate incidents on their way to work on Wednesday.
On Tuesday night, two other officers, Daniel Juarez and Carlos Manuel Alvarez, were killed when their car was sprayed by automatic gun fire.
On Sunday, police agent Jose Noel Vives died after he was shot more than a dozen times as he left his fiancee’s house.
The shootings bring to 13 the number of police killed since January in Nuevo Laredo, which lies across the border from Laredo, Texas.
The city is in the grip of a turf war between drug cartels which has claimed dozens of lives this year.
The police force was suspended while it was investigated for links between officers and the drug cartels.
At least 89 agents have already been fired and about 600 others are still under investigation.

Wow, a commenter at dKos. You do realize that you could register at dKos and comment. Just today I troll-rated some donk commenting about how the CIA was behind the London bombings.
You’re aware that posting outrageous nonsense on Kos is a sport among the freep. No? Now you do.

Maybe, if outing gay conservatives weren’t such an enthusiastically-undertaken blood-sport of the left.
You don’t seriously believe that was posted by a FReeper. The Kos Kidz don’t need any help making themselves look like scumbags.
