From the looks of the mugshot he did not escape unscathed. Having lived in Fla. for 50 years it has been my experience that troopers here have very little sense of humor and no patience for foolishness. Frankly IMO he’s fortunate they didn’t open fire on him.

I have always suspected that Florida Man and Shirtless Man are the same person.

How does “medically distressed man” fit into the picture?

The slow motion drug zombie apocalypse continues, and the next generation of ugly boys is on the way.
