Hey this was in the status of one of my friends...I am passing this on: For those that don’t know; the “Pants on the Ground” guy from American Idol was wearing a button in support of Troy Davis. Davis was convicted of the murder of an off-duty Savannah Police Officer, Mark MacPhail. I choose NOT to support anyone who supports cop killers and I hope you will do the same.

Do you kjnow if this is true? Is there a way to find out? I hate that if it is. :/

It sure looks like a picture of Troy Davis on his left side.

The t-shirt that General Larry is wearing might have something to do with Davis too.

Who is Troy Davis?

I’m embarrassed to ask that question. LOL

[silent_jonny]

I didn't know either, LOL ;)

I googled him--he's a convicted cop-killer, but says he didn't do it. The killing happened in 1989 (I think) and he was supposed to be executed last year, but the Supreme Court stepped in and told Georgia to wait until they look at new evidence.

Davis might be innocent or guilty, but he has the support of HUGE lefties like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Harry Belefonte and just about anyone else you can think of, so I'm a little suspicious.

[EmilyGeiger]

I’m hoping he was wearing it so to look gangsta... you know. Like what the morons do when they’re wearing their pants on the ground. I hope he’s not Al sharpton crazy. :)

[Palladin]

He looks like a nut!

In other news: Simon and Ellen don’t get along. Who wouldda thunk it?

[conservativebabe]

And just when I was enjoying the “pants on the ground” phenomenon. :(

I guess it’s to be expected.

[EmilyGeiger]

As much as it pains me to admit it, I don’t blame Ellen for being upset that he was so late. I am very much start on time and be productive kinda person, and if I reschedule my day around someone and then they are late, I’m pretty peeved. She did go to some trouble to work her schedule around Idol and was professional about it. Other than that, it will be fun if there are some fireworks involved. ;)

Mariah Carey's ex-husband? I could pick a name out of the phonebook and it would be a better judge than that.
