WICHITA FALLS, Texas -- A Texas man is jailed after allegedly going on a rampage in a strip club after finding his daughter working there.

Witnesses say 41-year-old Lee Wayne Lawrence was dressed in survival gear when he was arrested unharmed at Maximus in Wichita Falls. Lawrence remained in the Wichita County Jail Monday under $500,000 bond, charged with aggravated assault.

Police say Lawrence entered the club Saturday night, destroyed furniture and was carrying what appeared to be a pipe bomb. Investigators say he damaged two 7-foot-tall water-bubble lamps and a leopard-skin chair and slashed three tables tops with a knife.

Investigators are still analyzing the device he carried to determine whether it could have detonated.

My theory is that some of his buddies told him about this really hot new stripper at the club (they usually don't go by their real names) and told him that her boobs were out to here and her butt was out to there and why doesn't he go out with them this Friday night to see her?

So he gets there, surrounded by his work buddies, and BAM! There's his baby girl on the stage, strutting her stuff and prompting obscene remarks and gestures on the part of his buddies and all the other salivating males, leering at his baby just like a lion stalks a gazelle.

So he leaves and plots his revenge. He gets his pipe bomb (and I think the cops can tell if something is just a pipe or if it's supposed to be a bomb) and his "survival gear" on and goes back later.

Methinks you're pretty close to the truth.

dressed in survival gear ????

Implication is obvious. Weearing survival gear is correlated with violent behavior. Therefore, we need "survival gear control" laws.

Seems like the very thought that strippers have fathers takes all the fun out of a strip club.

the '70's are back, big, man!

Here we see habs in the latest retro look. He's a man who likes a little action, and he knows just where to find it - in his vest pocket, three inches below his armpit...

[Aarchaeus]

the country would be better off to have a few more "Bubbas" like this guy.....

Right-o, Cherry! Just what I was thinking.

,,, not at all. The talk about the interior decorating was getting me hot.

"...If you don't have a daughter you won't understand..."

His heart appears to be in the right place, but he's just to stupid to execute the manuver.

A somewhat more clever outraged father of a stripper might opt for the much-later-at-night-firebombing-the-empty-strip-joint gambit.

After cobbling together a plausible and reasonably durable alibi, of course.

[wimpycat]

No, any normal outraged father would march in there and haul his daughter off the stage, after throwing a coat around her, and dragging her out of there.

Maybe the bump-and-grind industry should get behind human cloning, if it will remove any such residual guilt from the minds of their clientele. < /sarcasm >

This story is worse than you know......this is my hometown.......lol..........

I'll take your word for it ;)

You wanted so bad to sign up as "Dog gone it", but you did not want to expose yourself. Same with your pal Bobby Jo Nuprez.

Why am I not surprised?

I think they've been pulled but there were a couple of threads just up about some woman accusing President Bush and his security of getting her and her husband drunk and raping them, two weeks before the 2000 election. And they claimed the goofs at Democratic Underground are buying it!!

[TheLurkerX]

That one's actually pretty small. It's not the classiest joint, either. Back in my hell-raising days, it was one of the places we went to drink beer and ignore the strippers. I never saw the point of sticking hard earned money in a woman's underwear, just because she can swing herself around a pole. Sure annoys the hell out of them if you sit up front and don't attention to them though. Something about a woman getting paid more in one night than I used to make in a week, just for having pontoons that irritates the hell out of me.

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

...raped her HUSBAND too?

[Argh]

That appeared to be the claim. Like I say, those threads appear to be gone.

there IS sex in the champagne room!
it just happens when you least expect it ;)
