Twinkie Defense not working? Try "Gay Panic"

*This story is pretty old, but is still relevant for its complete riDONKulousness. Read on.

Michael Griffin, a 25-year-old ex-marine and Bloomington, Indiana resident, stabbed Indiana University professor Don Belton in Belton's kitchen six times with a ten-inch military knife.

Why?

Some "experts" (morons) have speculated it might have been "gay panic", where the assailant was rendered temporarily insane by the perceived romantic or sexual advances of the victim.

Just sounds like regular ol' homophobia; but apparently, this is getting serious consideration. In Illinois, it allowed one man to walk free after stabbing a person 60 TIMES.
So much for thou shalt not kill.

Carrying Condoms in DC? You may get charged with prostitution


That's right, D.C.'s mayor has enacted a new law that allows police officers to arrest you if you're carrying more than 3 condoms on your person - which apparently identifies you as a "sex worker".
Seriously?
I thought condoms came in packs of at least 3. Isn't this incrimination by way of purchase? That'd be the same as buying beer and being arrested for a possible DWI.

Angry White Crackers

Currently we've seen a resurgence of the Angry White Cracker (AWC) in modern American society. This, apparently, didn't come about on its own, but is blamed on our President - who, by the way, if you didn't know - is black.
There are those who don't like Obama simply because of his policies; however, those are not the ones we hear from at the protests and vocal town hall meetings. The fact is that racism is becoming modern again, now a fad, a trendy way to make yourself look like the next 'real' patriot.
These coffee shop revolutionaries claim to promote the constitution when in reality they are undermining the principles of it - all in the anger of a black man in the white house. The America they supposedly they knew was one where minorities 'knew their place'; now with the advancement of minorities to a more equal footing, this xenophobic societal culture is being eroded - and thousands of white Americans want that back.
For the Teabaggers, submitting to the democratic republic that we've had for a century is no longer an option - even though they wanted America to do so for eight years.
It's not Obama's fault that a bunch of racist, bratty, selfish, angry, fat, hypocritical, and purposefully ignorant white crackers want to ditch American democracy all in the name of ousting a black man from office. Unfortunately, that's who they blame.
