    There are numerous deaths that occur just like this one, very, very odd. If you want to go down a rabbit hole, research all the strange deaths that occur at National Parks with almost the same scenario as this Iowa case.

    I've been listening to Park Predators lately, and it seems like a lot of those deaths fall into two categories: people doing illegal business (growing marijuana, making moonshine, hunting antlers, poaching) killing rangers / witnesses / competitors, and people killing their spouses for life insurance payouts.

    Road rage is different now.. In 1955 era...
    Ira Trigg (Unca Fuzz), Tom Riddell driver was returning to Canton, MS from del a flatbed load of cotton up in the Carolinas. Had eaten breakfast and came thru a small GA town a few miles before Stone Mountain. Eased thru; and out of city limits, a plain car runs up on him and flashes his head lights and waves ditch side. Fuzz knew he had not sped; was out of bounds for city cop, and proceeded to steam on. Car pulls along side, blows horn, and driver waves a pistol visible in his windshield.
    Fuzz said he kinda flicked his left hand in a "wait one " motion and reached down tween the seats of the little 22 White to grab his own.
    Raised it up and tapped the barrel on the window glass, laid it back on the passenger seat and started winding the window down...
    Plain car dropped back quickly...

    I'm not overly bright to begin with, but when it comes to electronics, I'm totally lost. There is a symbol on this thread, and when I move my mouse to it, it says watched, Does this mean it's a thread I watch or does it mean this thread is being watched for a possible lock down? There was another thread that was locked right above this one, and I don't have a clue as to why. Mack, you still around?
