Debate incident leads to injury

The Herald-Sun

CARRBORO -- After watching the presidential debate Thursday night, two UNC students ended up slapping each other while fighting over who Jesus would vote for in the election.

According to a police report, the concept of "turning the other cheek" came up, and James Robert Austin, 19, of 1305 Granville Towers West in Chapel Hill, slapped Robert Brooks Rollins, 22, of 104 Brewer Lane in Carrboro, on the cheek at Rollins' house.

After that, Rollins slapped Austin, and Austin landed on the concrete patio, possibly striking his head, according to the report. Rollins called for an ambulance, which took Austin to UNC Hospitals to be examined.

Neither Rollins nor Austin wanted to pursue the matter further, the report said.

I give that picture a 9.0, but it would be a perfect 10 with Ernest T. Bass.

I just hope one of them didn't scream "You B**ch!" just before slapping...

Yes, I am.

I'm a native North Carolinian and I bet I've seen every single ANdy Griffith Show at least twice.

Can you tell me why Aunt Bea had a quasi-English accent?

My favorite episodes: when she has gentleman callers -- she always tries to act better than she is -- and does she get taught a lesson, let me tell you!

I always figured Aunt Bea for a Mayflower descendant, D.A.R. and all, so her family spoke in a quasi-English accent due to hidebound tradition.

Of course, Andy learned not to speak in that ethnic manner, because he had a proper High School education.

I think they should both go to court on Novemeber the 2nd and stay there all day long.

One was checked for a head injury, one had his head checked because he is going to vote for Kerry.

Momma was right, never argue over "What would Jesus do?"
