A police report released Tuesday sharply contradicts the accounts of Warronnica Harris and Terrell "KC" Tolson...,

I feel a limerick coming on.

[BenLurkin]

"Warronnica Harris"

Will this time to be a funny name thread?

[Flashman_at_the_charge]

This is why I rarely bother going to the movies.

[Cagey]

...an unidentified woman complained about someone using a laser pointer in the theater.

"Oh, I think someone has one of those funny laser pointers."

[wideawake]

I hope the morons who were defending these two racist assh*les yesterday and insulting the cop will apologize.

But I doubt it.

[MarkeyD]

There are times when I would have liked to use a .45 in a movie theatre.

[PAR35]

"hit this cracker upside his head',

Sounds like the off duty officer was the victim of a hate crime.

[bikepacker67]

That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.

Bet she had the whole 'head bobbin' thing going on...

[reagan_fanatic]

Then (Harris) said she was going to "hit this cracker upside his head', and she swung her drink at my head."

When will Jesse Jackass be holding his press conference to denounce this heinious racism and call for a congressional inquiry?

[gunnygail]

When Tolson came at Douglas with a clenched fist, the officer wrote, he used his pepper spray. "Then (Harris) said she was going to "hit this cracker upside his head', and she swung her drink at my head." I called it yesterday. Figures the lowlifes would start shooting off their mouths, provoke a little violence, and then whine when they get peppered. You have to love the "tude". "I'll talk as much as I want in here (the theatre). The heck with the REST of the PAYING customers. I hope her eyes are STILL BURNING!

[martin_fierro]

Wonder which movie they were there to see:

A CINDERELLA SYORY
ANCHORMAN
CATWOMAN
DE-LOVELY
HARRY POTTER & PRISONER OF AZK
I, ROBOT
KING ARTHUR
NAPOLEON DYNAMITE
SHREK 2
SPIDER-MAN 2
THE ADVENTURES OF OCIEE NASH
THE BOURNE SUPREMACY
THE CLEARING
THE NOTEBOOK
WHITE CHICKS

[BenLurkin]

Another news report identified it as "Catwoman".

[Cagey]

A CINDERELLA SYORY

Is that the one where Cinderalla wears an Eastern Indian gown?

[martin_fierro]

Who is "AZK" and why is he/she/it holding prisoners? <|:)~

[End Times Sentinel]

Not to make excuses, but you have to expect a certain level of off color behavior when you go see a film like The Adventures of Pippi Longstocking.

Owl_Eagle

”Guns Before Butter.”

[The Duke]

Given this is the city of St. Pete we're talking about, I predict the city gets successfully sued for several million dollars (and the cop loses his career).

[Judith Anne]

Where was the spraying done? If it was in the theater, a lot of people had to be affected...that stuff goes EVERYWHERE.

[ICX]

HELLO! HELLO! I'M IN A MOVIE! A MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVIE!

[Badeye]

Could have been worse, the police officer could have asked them for an identification......LOL!

It never ceases to amaze me how self centered some people are. Like those that use cell phones in a theater, or church (I've seen this happen in a church TWICE).

It also never ceases to amaze me how many people do as this couple did, and go to jail because of it. bottom line is they should have shut off the cell phone and shut up.

Oh well....hope they like the color orange.
