"The wounds were so severe to the buttocks that they are gone," McCool said.

For some reason this made me think of cartoonist Sam Henderson. I couldn't find an appropriate illustration online but I did find this fragment from an interview:

RW: But would that be considered to be low art or high art?

SH: Depends on whether it's displayed close to the floor or to the ceiling.

RW: Yesss I see, but let's say you simply draw a man whose ass happens to be absent--it's missing and the man can not find his ass and he's looking for his missing ass--maybe he finds it, maybe he doesn't. Is this low art of high art?

SH: Like I'm trying to say, art is in the eye of the beholder. I consider myself an entertainer before I consider myself an artist. I know the art world but if someone wanted to pay me $10,000 for one of my originals and dozens of others followed their lead, I'd be an idiot to turn them down.

Law enforcement officers arrested Kimberly King, 26, of Aliceville at about 6 p.m. Wednesday, Pickens County District Attorney Chris McCool said.

The only thing I can say about this story other than I'm glad it wasn't a hate crime for Ted Kennedy and his lapdogs to exploit is what a cool name: Mr. McCool.

Glad to meet you, my name is Mr. McCool. Has a nice ring to it.

Hi Squantos! You missed all the fun yesterday on this thread........I read every single post and it was over 250 if I remember correctly.......some of these freepers just amaze me with their insight...... one had suggested this might be in retaliation for something the guy had done......another said it couldn't have been "real men" in Alabama because they don't drive cars! lol...(That was my favorite)......

And someone (I'm too lazy to go back and look it up) said this story didn't sound right because they felt the victim would be telling who, what, when, where and how....... and he "couldn't remember exactly"............

You stay safe as well!

The woman had sought child support payments. Maybe the media will side with her since he's possibly a dead-beat-dad.

If it had been a boyfriend dragging and stabbing his girlfriend the media could have still held it up as an "extreme" example of misogyny/battered woman syndrome.

According to the feminists, every crime by a man against a woman is a "hate crime."

What his girlfriend did with that knife oughtta constitute a hate crime...

Stories like these are one reason why hate crime legislation is stupid and unworkable, and therefore ought to be dropped IMMEDIATELY.

I'm reading the other thread as well....ain't it INTERESTING how reporters "reported" as fact that Outlaw had been "assaulted by a group of other men, then dragged by car for about a mile early Sunday morning." ...Well, they got the dragging part right.

Now why couldn't Kimberly King have been working in the Florida office of the Agriculture Department when Mohammed Atta dropped in for a loan? Thousands of lives would have been saved.....

Where are the Kimberly Kings when we really need them?

"Maybe the media will side with her since he's possibly a dead-beat-dad"

Maybe....on the other hand, my kid's dad is a deadbeat dad (orderd to pay support - went on welfare to avoid it) but I never err...well....did anything like this gal did....

Nah, the major media will drop this post haste, because this "objectivity" they've been bragging so much about since 9-11 has just been proven to be the total BS we knew it was. "Egg, meet Face" and all that.

Speaking of hate crimes, does any Texas Freeper know what became of the black woman who ran over the white guy with her car, then drove home with him stuck through the windshield and left him to die in her garage?

Brand X..

You can bet your bippy that the big city slicks of the media are bummed out that there is no story for their exploitation. Anymore, one feels he should be ashamed, if he is white, male, christian and of European ancestry. And then if he is a "redneck" to boot, curses upon his miserable soul.

Her victim was "mentally challenged". Identifying him as a white male makes it sound like he's a member of the "privileged class". After X42, all members of the USA must trumpet their victimhood status to define their being. < /sarcasm >

I would like to know how this is proceeding. There was some discussion of charging her with kidnapping which if convicted could elevate her crime to a capital offense.
