#34. Demarcus? Greek immigrant. No just an ignorant brother who couldn’t spell his name correctly - Damascus.

Jermine, stupid too. It’s really Germane, as is in the question “Is his IQ germane to a 10-20 year jail sentence”?

What a hoot, the mayor takes drug delivery's at 2 in the morning in front of his own house? Hey, maybe the mayor was actually being dropped off, when the other occupants decided they wanted his shinny vehicle too.☺ Naw, I am sticking to him being followed to his home, and they took his vehicle after he stopped.

Hizzoner making a drug buy was my first thought too.
Only thing better than the mayor would have been the
county prosecutor getting hit.

Taking drug deliveries in front of your own home at 2 am is not too slick. Even for a mayor. Maybe this mayor has industrial strength stupidity.

Exactly what I was thinking. Drugs or attempted buggery for hire.

His day job is a bank vice president.

You know, in his wallet was his mayor’s badge.
Heck I didn’t know there was such a thing.

They couldn’t be Barky’s sons, though, as they are too good looking.

And, of course, far lesser criminals than Barky.

this mayor is the one who put out the Zimmerman 911 tapes. And he had Sharpton and Jesse Jackson applauding him.

Better yet: Get an old semi-tractor. The gears aren't synchronized. You have to know how to double-clutch.

If you get someone to weld a pickup bed on the back, you would also win the contest amongst the rednecks to see whose truck is bigger.

They could use a neighborhood watch.

I figured someone would beat me to that thought.

I’d be really, really surprised if my mayor, who I know well, has such a thing. WTH is a mayor’s badge!?
