AJC reporter tells story of carjacking

Atlanta Journal Constitution ^ | 03/11/05

He was a young, athletic looking black man, and he didn't have a shirt on, but I figured he was probably in town for the basketball tournament.

No way a reporter ever writes that, unless he got mugged.

[Chode]

and if the moron got to work on time like everybody else, instead of a little after nine, it never would of happened... i hope it's a learning experience

[henkster]

Yeah, I see a lot of compassion, warmth and human spirit in those eyes.

A little OT but the Georgia Dome doesn't allow shirtless participants...

[Defiant]

Outrageous that people like this are losing their right to vote! Another potential Hillary! voter lost to evil Republican laws.

Is this thread a chat-free zone?

So, how've you been? I've been well. Aunt Mame is a limping a little because of her arthritis, but I suspect she'll get along like she always does. My best Holstein "Bess" isn't doing too well lately, I wonder if I need to put her down. Steaks all around if I do, of course. The front 50's doing well; I expect a really good crop this year. I let the back 50 go fallow this year; the cotton crop really took it out of the soil.

Mitch and LouAnn say hi. They miss you and hope Charlestown is to your liking.

[jaydubya2]

Yep, I noticed that too. Not exactly PC.

[Cobra64]

...He must have been out of bullets...

And primers, brass and powder. Then again maybe his RCBS or Dillon reloading machines were out of order.

Was the perp carrying a high speed assault single shot bolt action .22 revolver with a bayonette mount?

[Disambiguator]

They're cartridges, not bullets.

And it's a magazine, not a clip.

Yes, journalistic knowledge of firearms is virtually nil.
