A gay serial killer, who murdered about eight men from 1984-1988.
Bob Berdella wasn't caught, until a victim who had endured several days of fisting, felching, testicular electric torture and drano injections escaped wearing nothing but a dog collar with blood dripping from his violated anus.
Ran a shop in the Midtown ghetto of Kansas City, Missouri. The shop - Bob's Bizarre Bazaar - was where he displayed the skulls of his victims and other trophies.
Disposed of his victims in trash bags and/or fed them to his dumbass friends.
Somehow managed to be appointed as a substance abuse counselor by the Jackson County Municipal Court. Most of his victims also were drug addicts.
Berdella was active at least three years before Jeffrey Dahmer, who only got famous for killing black people, while Berdella was sweet on white guys.
Featured on Court TV, Geraldo Rivera's satanism specials, Arts and Entertainment Television, CrimeLibrary.com and a low-budget, indie film directed by Benjamin Meade named "James Ellroy presents: Bizare Bazaar."
Bob Berdella was a cheeky little fellow.
Not really. He was a big, fat, Kansas City faggot.

A band from the San Francisco (hippy) bay area, who put out million-selling albums recorded in the same lavish studios used by pop singers like Kid Rock rather than the dust bins that bands like Black Flag recorded in.
Punk looking band with a few cool riffs and some OK songs.
Extremely overrated compared to more innovative punk bands of the past (D.I., Dead Kennedys, Circle Jerks, etc.)
Greed Day isn't the only pop punk group these days that totally sucks, but they seem to be more conspicuous about their love of money than the average so-called punk rockers.

Slayer's pentultimate 1986 masterpiece.
Produced by Rick Rubin and released on Def Jam
The first satanic thrash metal album ever released on a major label.
One of the most controversial albums of all time.
One of the fastest albums of all time: clocking in at just under 30 minutes.
Song list:
1) Angel of Death (90% of the controversy) 10/10
2) Piece by Piece 9/10
3) Necrophobic 9/10
4) Altar of Sacrifice 10/10
5) Jesus Saves (the other ten percent of the controversy) 10/10
6) Criminally Insane 10/10
7) Reborn 9/10
8) Epidemic 9/10
9) Postmortem 10/10
10) Raining Blood 10/10
Reign in Blood's release was delayed because of concerns regarding its lyrical subject matter and graphic artwork: several Catholic Popes drowning in a river of blood in Hell; Satan on his throne; etc.
The opening track, "Angel of Death", references Josef Mengele and details acts committed at the Auschwitz concentration camp, which provoked allegations of Nazism. Slayer takes no pro or con position on the matter in the song.
The album was Slayer's first to enter the Billboard 200; the release peaked at number 94, and in 1992 was awarded a gold certification by the Recording Industry Association of America.
Kerrang! magazine described it as the "heaviest album of all time" while Metal Hammer magazine named it "the best metal album of the last 20 years".
Inexplicably the ultra-mainstream Spin Magazine ranked the album number 67 on their list of the "100 Greatest Albums, 1985-2005."
Slayer's "Reign In Blood" was directly responsible for the rise of death metal and cannot be bested. Bow down.
Reign in Blood is by far the best metal album of the 1980s bar none.

The substitute for Jesus Christ among left-of-center Democrats.
Shorthand for Barack Hussein Obama (b. 1961, Somalia), the leader of one of the most successful religious cults since Jim Jones - the leader of the People's Temple in 1970s San Francisco (later Guyana, South America).
In 2008, Obama is overwhelmingly the mainstream media's choice for U.S. President.
The most successful politician currently in American politics.
When speaking of Obama it is considered racist to mention his Islamic origins or his middle name.
Barack Hussein Obama likes to be referred to as simply "Obama" much like Ioseb Vissarionovich Jugashvili liked to be called Stalin, the "man of steel." (See also: Nero, Caligula, Hitler, Mao, Che, Lenin, Marx, et al).
Currently claims membership in the cult-like Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, Illinois. The mission statement of this church is:
"We are an African people, and remain true to our native land, the mother continent, the cradle of civilization."
Master Obama said that the Sermon on the Mount was about homosexual marriage. No one in the media seemed to find this comment even the least bit controversial.

A Confederate cavalry officer, who beat Union troops in nearly every battle especially when outnumbered two or three to one.
Massacred black and Union troops at Fort Pillow in 1864, or at least turned his back on the actions of his subordinates.
Made his fortune raising tobacco and selling slaves.
Was the first Imperial Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan or KKK, which he disassociated himself with shortly thereafter. He testified before Congress in 1870 during the Ku Klux Klan hearings and rightfully considered the Klan completely lawless terrorists.
Nathan Bedford Forrest was the first gangsta rapper. Not only did he get rich from selling black people into slavery, he also invented the drive by shooting and lynched dozens of black people.

A phrase used by Afrocentric racists, gays and liberals to stereotype working class, white Americans.
Historically the term described any Southern white, who was too friendly with "the coloreds," especially those whites involved in interracial sex.
Of course, white trash were too poor to afford slaves. Many white trash were indentured servants from backwater parts of Scotland and Ireland, who were slaves for seven years upon arrival in the New World.
In the late 1800s, the term "White Trash" was used by wealthy sharecroppers known as Redeemers or Bourbon Democrats to describe white populists, who were trying to politically mobilize blacks and poor whites.
The myth that the Redeemers propagated was that all poor whites were violent racists, who were in the Ku Klux Klan. In truth, the first Grand Dragon of the KKK was a wealthy slaveholder named Nathan Bedford Forrest.
Today, the white trash stereotype usually gets misapplied to the white underclass in rural US. Generally a person gets the label, if that person chooses not to attend church, vote Republican or own enough land. Listening to heavy metal music or reading Stephen King books may compound the negative image, so that a person gets sent to prison (Google: West Memphis Three).
White trash people maybe screw around, abuse drugs, and beat their wives or commit sex crimes. But not more often than the Republicans do.
Historical white trash people: Harry S. Truman, Bill Clinton, Elvis Presley, Abraham Lincoln and U.S. Grant.
White trash people are just another racial stereotype like the wetback, nigger and wild Injun stereotypes.

Usually these are punk rockers who aren't truly nazis but vaguely hold racist, anti-intellectual, anti-socialist or fascist beliefs.
"The fascists are the only true anarchists," a phrase coined by Benito Mussolini seems to describe the Nazi punk attitude toward bourgeoise culture
A group that would have been gassed in Auschwitz for cross-dressing, refusing to obey orders and/or wearing BDSM fetish wear.
Sid Vicious, Siouxie Sioux, Johnny Rotten, Richard Hell, Iggy Pop, the Adolescents, Black Flag, Exene, Darby Crash and most early punks latched onto the Nazi Punk image in the late '70s.
In 1976, the swastika was borrowed from Iggy and the Stooges, the Outlaws Motorcycle Club and the Hell's Angels and then updated and modified into an easily consumable teenage trend by fashion designers Vivian Westwood and Malcolm McLauren in their London boutique called "Sex"
By 1982, the Nazi Punk fad was driven underground, because the big record companies were no longer interested in signing punk rock bands and were totally focused on New Wave. Without the mainstream media paying attention punks started concentrating less on image and more on substance.
Most of the Nazi Punks were uneducated and not nearly as bigoted and extreme as their Nazi fetish would indicate.
In the '70s, Darby and Sid were into heavy leather and swastikas on their clothes. Although they were cross-dressing, they could also be considered Nazi Punks.
"Nazi Punks Fuck Off" - Dead Kennedys song that became a hit in 1981, because of all the trendy, rich kids in the O.C. pretending to be Nazis & leathermen from London's East End.
