Yet another dumb criminal . . .

Floyd Elliott, Independence, MO., called Independence, MO Police to report a vicious "Hate" crime, December 14, 2004. It seems that two men attacked him, tying him up and carving the word "Fag" into his forehead and also burning the word on his chest.

Police became suspicious when investigating the crime as the word "Fag" on the man's forehead was backward (as if one was looking into a mirror when attempting to self mutilate.) The word on the man's chest was written correctly, however.

After further investigation, Elliott admitted filing a false report because he felt that the Independence Police didn't patrol the apartment complex where he lived often enough. Independence Police have charged Elliott with filing a false report.

Elderly female resident of the same complex, when told of Elliott's self-mutilation and false report, responded with, "What an idiot!"

"I'd not be the least bit surprised to find out that Elliott headed up the ACT-UP Committee for Kerry for President."

Maybe he will blame it on Bush and Rove next!!

He's lucky he didn't try to carve lauxesomoh in his forehead. Might have bled to death.

Now THAT'S funny!!!

Do you have a link for this. I can find the original article on the attack but no follow up. Please help. I would like to foreward this news but I am not going to spread bogus news reports around the net. DU does a good enough job in that department.

Now this is funny......

I'm not sure that The Kansas City Star (we refer to it as The Scar) had the entire story - at least not the part where it was a false story, because it would not fit their agenda but you might try FOX4 News (that is the tv station that ran the entire bit last night.)

He'll be a hit in the local slammer that's for sure.
Maybe his cellmates will carve 'reffup eep eep' in his forehead.

Monitor alert!!

...but I am reassured that given this young man's sexual proclivity the chances of his reproducing are at best slim.
Thereby removing at least one hereditary line of STUPIDITY from the gene pool.

He could've put out his Queer Eye.

I remember reading this in a MAD magazine.

It was a convicted killer who, despite a 7 state killing spree that racked up more dead than Cecil B Demil, was still the laughing stock of death row.

He had "999" carved into his forehead.
