Unbelievable but very true

That's almost like cutting off your nose to spite your face...

Oh, wait. It is EXACTLY like that!

Now if that had been in Spain it would have been Torres

I think that he should be denied any wheel chairs false feet/legs or crutches seeing as he cut his own leg off why should the government pay?

Unless of course it is proven that he is a mental case.
If he is a mentally sound man then he should be forced to wear a sign that says:

Ich schneide meinen eigenen Fuß, weil ich faul bin.

So what I want to know is, how exactly can we blame the President for this. Overuse of the word "lib" is mandatory. Even a communist Russia reference.

And go!

It's coming, just watch.

So, is his boss Jigsaw?

lets play a game...

I would have more went for the contraption that spun the head 180 degrees slowly , than a loss of a foot. Makes the game much more interesting.

All jokes aside, this is why we have calls to end social help for elderly, and people of misfortune who become handicapped through no faults of their own. (or born that way)
Because morons like this are always held up as the benchmark for the "scum" who benefit from social programs. Making it easier for politicians to bring back the 17th century.

That dude deserves all the pain he has from this degree of stupidity. If he wanted to remain out of work that bad, all he had to do was come to the U.S. There are no jobs to be found here at all.

Mixed emotions here, I wonder what his job was, at 56 he didn't have much time before retirement! There must be more to it.

You mean besides some kind of mental deficiency?

There is nothing sane about this. There are "cutters" but to take a piece of limb off is sick, and contrary to natural human instinct.

My job sucks balls, and I never contemplated this.

His brain is clearly mis-wired.

Eugenics anyone?

I wonder what brand of table saw it was that he used because I see a very fruitful add campaign in their future.

"Makita table saws,so effective at getting the job done You will need to cut your foot off in order to get some rest from the job."*

Or

"Makita table saws our laser guide is so accurate you can cut your foot off at twice the speed and precision of a 19th century doctor."*
"We recommend that you drop your removed foot into one our wood chippers after removal it will make it un-salvageable and allow you to extend your unemployment"*

*Makita is not responsible if you actually do cut off your foot with one of our products
always wear proper safety equipment and read and understand all instructions before attempting self amputation.

@soopaman2 There is a reason why malingering is against most military law plenty of perfectly sane soldiers have feigned injury or inflicted injury to avoid duty(and I am not talking jst about front line troops either).I do not really see why a civilian person would do the same thing and perhaps he did precisely because it appears the insane thing to do.

What a stupid thing to do.

Now if he ever decides to try to get another job he will have trouble getting his foot in the door.

But less likely to suffer foot-in-mouth!

And when the government refuses to pay him benefits he'll be hopping mad!!
