Man sings Eminem songs while stabbing family

Monday would not be Monday without at least one strong contender for the Sick Fuck of the Week award, and here we have a pretty twisted one.

Police say that 29-year-old Michael Miller stabbed his wife, 10-year-old daughter and 4-year-old son, killing the first two and injuring the boy with 11 stabs, My FOX Phoenix reported.

Miller, of Glendale, Arizona, tucked his son into bed the night before, and said a prayer together asking God to keep them safe. The next morning, May 30, he was calm as a cucumber when he told a 911 dispatcher, "I just killed my family with a knife. All of them. All three of them."

Miller told detectives he was possessed when he saw wife Adreana Miller as a demon, and that just before stabbing her at 4 a.m.he started screaming lyrics from an Eminem song that go, "Here comes Satan, I'm the anti-Christ, I'm going to kill you."

Get the violins ready for court. I bet he's yet another product-of-divorce sick fuck who learned to be possessed, see demons, stab and sing while as a result of his parents' divorce.

Miller said that when the kids awoke to their mother's screams, he stabbed them too, noting he stabbed his son Brian the most because he loved him the most.

Is this for real? This is almost too perfectly wicked to be true...a Law & Order SVU episode in the making.

The hellishly possessed Eminem wanna-be then rolled a cigarette, said another prayer, and called 911.

"They woke up, I was threatening my wife with a knife and my kids came out, and I killed my wife and actually both my kids," he said calmly. When the 911 dispatcher asked him, "Are you sure you're not dreaming Michael?" he said, "I'm positive."

At this point it seems to me that these insanity pleas waiting to happen are nothing but the norm--the crazier, the more normal. What would be insane nowadays is straight-forward murder--no red paint on the walls after choking every member of your family, no acid baths, no mutilating and cooking someone you owe money to, no setting people on fire for not answering the phone, no singing Eminem songs while stabbing a family to death, no microwaving of babies.

If I were planning on going for an insanity plea, I would walk up to someone and shoot them in the head. No bells and whistles. What could be crazier than that?

Chaos in Iran, suicide bomb kills 60+ in Iraq

Ahmadinejad was declared the winner of the presidential elections last weekend, but turmoil and violence continue to rule in Iran, particularly in the capital city of Tehran.

Rallies again led to clashes between sides--Mousavi vs. Ahmadinejad supporters--and with Iranian security forces trying to control the protesters.

Although the Iranian government sent notices to journalists prohibiting them from covering the demonstrations, numerous news and witness reports, including images and video, are being leaked to the media via blogs, instant messaging and websites such as Facebook and Twitter, among other outlets, and broadcast by news networks such as CNN.

The images show streets packed with protesters and police, and instances of beatings, gunfire, wounded people lying on the ground bleeding, tear gas and water cannons being used by security forces, and motor vehicles on fire, among others. Mousavi supporters reportedly set a mosque on fire.
One video shows police hitting women with clubs. Several show men and women lying on the ground covered in blood after being beaten or shot, and in another a woman is trying to protect a young man who's being beaten and kicked by protesters after being thrown off his bike.
Several Twitter reports stated a hospital close to the scene is reporting 30 to 40 casualties and more than 200 injured.

Iranian state media is reporting the situation has returned to normal with "sporadic clashes." Mousavi said today he's ready for martyrdom willing to die for the cause behind the protests--the claim that last week presidential elections were rigged. Meanwhile, rallies against the Iran elections are underway at several U.S. cities, among them New York City, Los Angeles, Atlanta and Washington, D.C., as well as in foreign cities such as Hamburg, Germany; Sidney, Australia; and Paris, France.

Yesterday, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei backed Ahmadinejad during the Friday morning prayer session.

He said Ahmadinejad won a "definitive victory" in the June 12 election and denied vote-rigging, adding that "rioting after the election is not a good way. It questions the election. If they continue [the consequences] will be their responsibility. ... I'm asking my friends and brothers to follow the laws. Let God give us blessing to follow those ways."

Well, how could they protest the election results before the election?

He praised Ahmadinejad as a "hard working" leader and blamed western governments and media for undermining the election process. Ugh.

Many residents, however, shouted "Allahu Akbar!" and "Death to the dictator!" from rooftops throughout Tehran in defiance to Khamenei, NBC News reported..

Suicide truck bomb kills over 60 people in Iraq

In Iraq, a suicide truck bombing near a Shiite mosque killed at least 64 people and wounded at least 166 Saturday in a city close to Kirkuk, Iraq, an official with Kirkuk police said according to a CNN report.

The explosion occurred in a busy area near the Rasoul mosque, police said, and a number of people were trapped under rubble.

Police said at least 25 houses and shops were destroyed.

The blast took place about 1 p.m. in the town of Taza, about 10 miles southwest of Kirkuk and 149 miles north of Baghdad, CNN reported. Taza is predominately inhabited by Shiite Turkmen.

Last week, Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki warned of increased political violence in the country, mentioning a deadly bombing on June 10 in the southern town of Bathaa that killed more than 30 people and injured dozens.

He said there will be attempts to undermine Iraqi security forces as U.S. troops complete their withdrawal from Iraqi cities by the end of the month and ahead of upcoming national elections.

Iranian women call for equality in election aftermath

Women, regarded as second-class citizens under Iranian law, have taken to the streets to participate in the massive demonstrations that have unfolded since in the aftermath of the presidential election a week ago, protesting not only the election results but demanding an end to discrimination.

The images show women with uncovered heads who are unafraid to speak their minds and crowds that are not segregated--both the opposite of the norm in Iran.

Iranians are protesting what they consider a fraudulent vote count favoring hardline incumbent Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

"This regime is against all humanity, more specifically against all women," said protester Parisa, whom CNN is not fully identifying for security reasons.

"I see lots of girls and women in these demonstrations," she said. "They are all angry, ready to explode, scream out and let the world hear their voice. I want the world to know that as a woman in this country, I have no freedom."

Though 63% of all Iranian college students are women, the law of the land does not see men and women as equal. In cases of divorce, child custody, inheritance and crime, women do not have the same legal rights as men.

In this year's presidential campaign, Iranian women pressured candidates to agree to ratify the U.N. Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women. The 1979 treaty has been ratified by 186 nations, including several Islamic states.

Some women in Iran looked to Mir Hossein Moussavi, who promised to appoint women as cabinet ministers if he won, to carry their banner.

The weight of discrimination against women is felt most profoundly through Iran's legal system, but Ahmadinejad added to the hardship by clamping down on women's lifestyles, CNN reported. He mandated the way women dress and even censored websites that dealt with women's health. A woman would be

"Today, we were wearing black," Parisa said, referring to the day of mourning to remember those who have died in post-election violence. "We were holding signs. We said, 'We are not sheep. We are human beings,'" she said.

"Today," she said, "I had this feeling of hope that things will finally change."

I applaud Iranian women's courage to speak up and fight for their rights. However, I can't forget that, like the men, women also have chanted "Death to the U.S!" during anti-American demonstrations in Iran.

just sayin'...
