Yep, 36 killer dolphins trained to kill enemy divers have been released by the hurricane and may be carrying poisoned dart guns. Surfers are advised to take up skateboarding.

If only someone had thought ahead and gotten some sharks with frikin laser beams on their heads we could have an effective weapon to stop these dolphins.

The Navy only trains dolphins to find mines and divers, not kill divers. When the dolphins find a diver they are given tracking device which they then use to swim up to and clamp on the leg of the intruders so that Navy divers can go get them. Sea Lions are also used for this job. And even if they did use "poison dart guns" they won't have them, the said guns would be locked up in storage when the Hurricane hit so the dolphins would just be your ordinary flipper.

Of course it happened. It's in the Guardian! This didn't come from Weekly World News.

my sister was talking to a guy who had been in new orleans and went to the shore in the area. he said you could see from the beach that the water was full of sharks.

Well, I heard a while ago that American troops in Iraq expend more than 250,000 rounds of ammunition for every insurgent they kill, maybe these poison-dart-uber-kickass-sniper-dolphins should give them lessons in target practice. :p

My bet is that they were actually released to fight the Mexican navy :p

All I know is I bet the tuna industry is really scared right now.

Sheesh, first it's Africanized Killer Bees. Now we have Assassin dolphins. What's next? Cute, fuzzy bunnies with chainsaw paws and lazer beam eyes?

Well, George W. Bush, Cindy Sheehan and Mike Brown were all sitting around at a drum circle in downtown Portland one night, drinking Southern Comfort and getting high...

I think they used to have a sort of 'death bracelet' thing, basicaly a compressed gas canister that the dolphin could carry around. They were trained to bump into a diver so that the bracelet would close and lock. Then somebody could trigger it or capture the diver.
Nasty way to die though, supposedly it could force your organs out through various orifices.
It might have been the Russians who had that one though, Im not sure.
It was on the History Channel though, so it must be true!
:P
