Lawyer jokes are a popular genre of humor—even among many lawyers, or so I’ve been told—but once the levity is over, we do need to respect the work that attorneys do, especially with regard to defending our rights in the courts. Cases have to be tried with evidence and logic, and just as with medicine and science, the legal profession requires experts who know what they’re talking about.

Rob Ski and the AK Operator’s Union, Local 47-74, went full Slav on the Magpul AK MOE buttstock to see how much abuse it could stand up to.

Ski, late of the Polish Army, showed the MOE a good bit of Warsaw Pact love that included using it as a baseball bat, drop tests, running it over with the AKOU mobile and other assorted shenanigans.

Did we mention the cantaloupe buttstroke? Because there is some gratuitous cantaloupe butt-stroking in the above video.

A video shared on YouTube shows the dramatic moments in which a deputy out of San Mateo County, California, dragged an unconscious motorist from his wrecked car out of the path of an oncoming train just seconds before the train crosses, partially obliterating his vehicle.

The incident happened Monday evening around 6:30 seconds after the motorist crashed into a pole beside the tracks.

“This is what we’re trained to do,” said San Mateo County Sheriff’s deputy Lance Whitted. “Luckily, we were at the right place at the right time.”

Whitted explained that while he was pulling the driver from the car, his partner, Dep. Erik Rueppel, was further down the tracks waving down the train to stop, which it was unable to do soon enough.
