Any UNC football fans? (Non bb)
« on: December 20, 2007, 11:33:19 pm »
I thought a few of you guys might find this to be an.... interesting read.  Hillsborough seems like quite a lovely town.

Quote
Initially, one of the football players welcomed sexual advances from Taylor and Washington, Whitney said.

"They brought him back and put him in the bedroom," Whitney said. "When the victim left the bedoom, there was a naked black male in the hallway who had a knife."

Whitney said that Lewis was standing naked in a hallway with a knife and later put it to one of the victims' necks. Taylor then pulled off the victim's pants, pushed him down on a bed, attempted to tie his hands with his belt and started to fondle him against his consent.

Hillsborough actually is a nice town.  Bad shit can happen anywhere.
The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.

Yep, Hillsborough is quite nice (10 minutes from my house, though I was not involved in this particular incident).  Weird story.

By the way, what is the point of putting the home addresses of the accused into the article?

That used to be standard procedure, though you don't see it as often anymore. I believe it's to make sure that you know it was John Smith of 123 Main St. who (allegedly) committed the crime, rather than John Smith from 456 4th Avenue or whatever -- thus, not libelling the wrong John Smith.

Yeah, I was just f'ing around.  I actually have some family that live near there, they love it.  Of course they don't bring home random trios of sex-crazed psychopaths.
