Man’s wound nets him charge of false report

INDEPENDENCE (AP) - Independence police have charged a man in this Kansas City suburb with filing a false police report after he said someone tried to carve the word "fag" on his forehead.

There was one little problem with 22-year-old Floyd Elliot’s story: The superficial wound was backward, as if it were made while looking into a mirror. Officials yesterday said that the slur also was burned into Elliot’s chest but said it was not backward. They say he filed the original report on Dec. 14 because he wanted more officers to patrol his Independence neighborhood.

Too bad he can't receive a Darwin. We really need an award for these lame-brained idiotic moronic ignoramuses.

Not to smart, now he can also be charged with a hate crime violation of himself.

Just when you think you've seen the stupidest thing ever, another knucklehead arises from the mire and stuns us again. This is what's known as "aggressive stupidity." Positively stunning stupidity.

It's not an award. It's an organized political party, named, "Democrat".

By my tracking, hate crime reports continue at a pace of 99% hoax, 1% real.

He should be thankful they haven't criminalized any references to smoking!

Next time I carve words into someone's forehead, I'll do it backwards so 1.) he'll get blamed, and 2.) he can read it every time he looks in the mirror.
