When will Ninjas learn?

This is pretty amusing.....

Feds Pounce on Student Dressed As a Ninja
Apr 12, 10:38 PM (ET)


ATHENS, Ga. (AP) - Running through the University of Georgia campus as a ninja can elicit a prompt response from authorities, a UGA sophomore learned.

Federal Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearm agents, on campus for a community training project, detained Jeremiah Ransom of Macon Tuesday as a "suspicious individual" when they spotted a masked figure darting near the Georgia Center.

Ransom told The Red & Black student newspaper that he had left a Wesley Foundation pirate vs. ninja event when he was snared by agents with guns drawn.

"It was surreal," Ransom said. "I was jogging from Wesley to Snelling (cafeteria) when I heard someone yell 'freeze.'" At first, he thought a friend was playing a joke.

University Police Chief Jimmy Williamson said Ransom was released as soon as he was found to have violated no laws.

Vanessa McLemore, the ATF special agent in charge, said agents thought something was amiss when they "noticed someone wearing a bandanna across the face and acting in a somewhat suspicious manner, peeping around the corner" then breaking into a run.

Williamson said Ransom was wearing black sweat pants and an athletic T-shirt with one red bandanna covering the bottom half of his face and another covering the top of his head.

How ya doing, buddy?

Those silly Wesleyans. In my day, the Wesley Foundation was an upstanding religious organization. Boy have they gone downhill since I was in college, sponsoring deathmatches between pirates and ninjas. Obviously this young ninja was fleeing for his life from the bloodthirsty pirates.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Pirates vs. Ninjas? And if he was just jogging between buildings, why would he be eeping around corners? I dunno...

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Ninja? My first label would have been "gang member with coke in his pocket," or "rampant engineer."

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

My thought would've been "straight-up thug".

But whatever floats his boat I guess.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Sweatpants, t-shirt and two red bandanas? That doesn't really sound like a ninja at all.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Black sweats, Black sport shirt, and a red bandanna? Doesn't sound like he looked like a ninja that much.

I can see why the authorities would suspect him to be a gang member on first glance.

EDIT: man as if Spike got that in before i did.

FELIPE NO

Pirates versus ninjas, sigh. Samurai are left out of the battle entirely. Are they too good to do battle with the other elite soldiers of fortune from our day? Or has Tom Cruise merely shamed them and sent them into hiding?

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

There you go.

Besides, Samurai are supposed to be all noble and stuff. Might as well be Samurai vs Knights.

Bat...damn...hope that idiot never does cosplay. BAD outfit.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

But inevitably the pirates or ninjas would attack the Samurai and end up in a battle against them, at which point the Samurai would probably win against the pirates for sure, as the Japanese have always been intellectually superior to everyone, let alone uneducated, sea-dizzy pirates. I imagine, for that reason, that their skillful usage of a traditional katana (even without the Americanized handguard!) will allow the Samurai to win easily.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

At the very least, the agents ought to have shot him in the kneecaps for being a very poor ninja. There's probably some ninja clan out there that has to commit seppuku because of him.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Ninjas are too fast to be shot in the kneecaps. Furthermore, I'm betting they can operate on a minimum of one functional limb at once.

You obviously never saw the film "Ninja Squad" then.

And Shin... Nope I didn't, and it sounds like it was for good reason.
